Since Colourpoints wear white or off-white coats, you will probably want to bathe your cat periodically to maintain its glistening "varnished" finish. Right after drying, you will have a fluffy-furred cat. Brush the coat with the concave side of a small rubber grooming brush to make the hair lie smoothly lustrous again. A weekly bath is not required, but regular nail-clipping should be routine. Colourpoints adore being groomed, so you can make an enthusiastic brushing the reward for tolerating a manicure! Tolerance is one of this breeds outstanding attributes. Though it seems contrary to their sensitivity, it is just not in their earnest loving nature to be otherwise. Heed the instructions of your cats breeder when you acquire your Colourpoint, and you will be blessed with long-lived, joyous companionship.
