Autumn-Winter Pet Care: How to Prepare Cat and Dog Fur for the Cold
With the arrival of October, our pets' lives change. Outside, there's dampness, dirt, and the first frosts, while indoors, there's dry air from the heating. During this period, an active reorganization of the body begins: animals shed their summer coat, their fur changes structure, becoming thicker, tangling and drying out faster. Therefore, pet fur requires special attention during this period.

To ensure the autumn-winter season passes without mats, skin irritations, and endless fur on carpets, pet care must be systematic. Together with the brand WAHL, we look at three main steps for professional winter coat preparation.
Step One: Deep Brushing
Well-groomed fur begins with proper preparation. In autumn, it is very important to timely remove old fur and undercoat so that the skin can "breathe" and the hair does not mat under autumn-winter clothing.
The WAHL Flexible Slicker Brush is suitable for curly, wavy, medium, long, and silky fur.

Why it works:
— Double-sided design: curved bristles gently detangle knots, remove dirt and dead hair, while straight bristles smooth the coat in the final stage.
— Flexibility and comfort: the brush adapts to the contours of the animal's body, without injuring the skin.
— Easy cleaning: the model is equipped with removable working panels, making it easy to remove collected hair in a couple of seconds.
Step Two: Main Clipping and Hygiene
When it's time for clipping, owners and groomers face the challenge of dealing with the thick fur that has grown before winter, without causing stress to the pet. The WAHL Arco Pro clipper is well-suited for this.
Why it works:
— Power and quietness: the powerful motor easily handles thick and even matted fur. At the same time, its quiet operation and minimal vibration level ensure calm even for young, sensitive, or nervous dogs.
— Autonomy and control: continuous operation is ensured by a system of interchangeable batteries (charging time is only 75 minutes) and a convenient LED battery level indicator.
— Versatility: the blade set offers 5 built-in cutting lengths (from 0.7 to 3 mm). And the included 4 guide combs significantly expand the range of options for a full clipping.
Step Three: Detailing and Finish
The muzzle, ears, paws, and groin area require delicate work, especially in autumn when dirt clings to the fur between the toes and cold wind can make eyes watery. For this, WAHL has the Fidela trimmer.
Why it works:
— Lightness and maneuverability: the trimmer weighs only 141 grams – it provides excellent maneuverability when working on the most sensitive areas.
— Clean cut: the removable U-shaped blade ensures a precise cutting length of 0.4 mm for a neat and clean result.
— Comfort in everything: like the Arco Pro, the trimmer operates very quietly and with low vibration. The kit includes a practical storage case, making Fidela an excellent addition to any clipping procedure.
Checklist for preparing your pet for the autumn-winter season:
-
Regularly brush the fur with the WAHL Flexible Slicker Brush – this is an indispensable first step in fighting mats.
