I have a cat and I'm not sure how often I should brush her.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Brushing your cat regularly can help reduce shedding and prevent hairballs. It's recommended to brush your cat at least 2-3 times a week, depending on her coat type and length.<|im_end|>

What's the difference between a brush and a comb for my cat?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
A brush is usually softer and gentler, used for removing loose hair and distributing skin oils. A comb is typically used for detangling and removing mats, especially around the ears and paws.<|im_end|>

Can I use a brush and comb together?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, you can use both a brush and a comb together as part of your cat's grooming routine. Start with a brush to remove loose hair, then use a comb to gently detangle any knots or mats.<|im_end|>
