If you spray them with the conditioner and work it in with your fingers it help to get the tangle loosened up. If all else fails and in really bad cases I will use a pair of hair scissors to break through the matt or tangle. You open the scissors and grip them like a knife with one side/point exposed. Than starting at the base of the area use it to poke the matt/tangle several times and work your way downward. It will break up the matt/tangle but keep in mind this will also cut the hair. I use that method only as a last resort !!

I picked up most of my grooming supplies at local pet stores and even Wal mart. I have to say that the cat brush is my favorite tool for working out the matts. I've even got my sister & mother using them too.
Extremely helpful thank you!
