When it comes to personal hygiene, cats are the epitome of cleanliness. They are naturally equipped with the implements to groom themselves: a barbed tongue with which to lick, forepaws they moisten with saliva and use as a surrogate washcloth, and teeth to dig out tougher debris. Believe it or not, adult cats may spend as much as half of their waking hours grooming themselves, their relatives and friends.
How do cats groom themselves?
The cat’s barbed tongue serves many purposes.
It: ♥︎ Removes dead or loose fur
♥︎ Strips away the scent of food from the whiskers and the fur, reducing the chance of being detected by nearby predators
♥︎ Helps rid the coat of fleas and other parasites
♥︎ Increases circulation
♥︎ Controls body temperature
♥︎ Speeds healing
♥︎ Feels good
