Grooming Leo
By Brenda B. Covert
  

1     My family has a white, long-haired cat named Leo. We think Leo is a prince. He lives in the house with us! He grooms himself with his tongue. Sometimes he needs help with his grooming. We have a brush for his fur. It helps remove loose hair and keep his coat tangle-free.
 
2     One time, Leo started to smell like a litter box. Pew! His fur became matted in a few places. He was unhappy. Cats would rather be clean. We decided to take Leo to see a pet groomer.
