    There are detangling sprays that can be purchased from pet stores...one I have seen is called Perfect Coat...I'm not sure how it works, as i keep my dog clipped short, but it may be an alternative. If it doesn't work, you may have to consider getting your kitty clipped down...those mats on cats and dogs can cause hot spots and skin sores from the skin not getting enough oxygen, and getting rubbed by the mat. It may look weird for awhile, but the hair should grow back in before too long. You may want to ask your vet for some suggestions as well. Good luck!
