I would assume the worst and get both you and kitty used to brushing and cutting/shaving them. It youre unlucky the cat will have the kind of fur that matts often, getting real painful tangles in the pits and groins, not to mention poop getting stuck. If so you need to brush frequently to minimise the need to cut. Grooming isn’t cheap, but it’s possible to do at home and good to have trained for it before you need it. Some cats pretty much needs shaved pits lol.

They have very stretchy skin, so do just go hacking away blindly. Check out tutorials and as the vet or vet assistants to show you on your next visit.

If you’re lucky they’ll have more or less tangle free fur, but as long as it’s long, it’s good that you’re both used to you fixing it, because it will be needed someday.
