Simple - stroke the cat, while making sure you're grounded !
Static electricity translates into electrons not in motion. Typically, you rub rubber on fur to get static electricity. I get static electricity from petting my cat (I am a rubber of my cat, but I am not made of rubber.)
To determine if your cat is long or short haired, observe the length of its fur. If the fur is short and close to the body, your cat is short-haired. If the fur is longer and may have a fluffy appearance, your cat is long-haired.
Yes, although it's easier to generate an electric charge on some cats than others. Also, both cats and dogs can be filled with static electricity especially if they are running around on carpeting. I've had mild shocks off my cat and 2 dogs, although it's not certain where the charge developed.
Yes, it can produce static electricity. You can tell if a cat's fur has it by rubbing a cat vigorously, then having it touch something metal. If there is a spark or the cat is shocked, you know they made static electricity
maybe a Long haired cat apposed to a short haired cat has more feminine energy or wisdom. When i think if a short haired cat i think of energy, personality, love/ protection. When i think of a long haired cat i think of wisdom, and submission to dominant energy good or bad. Long hair is yin, wise, calm, and week. Short hair is yang, strong, lively and aware. ~Dana Lang
It really has nothing to do with the cat or the balloon, at least not directly. When there is enough static electricity present, a balloon will stick to a cat's fur. The static electricity is usually generated by lightly rubbing the balloon on the cat's body, and may be enhanced if the air is dry (such as in dry heat in a house).
Not unless they are bred with a long haired cat. Take for example if a kitten's mother is a Russian Blue and it's father a Cornish Rex(curly cat) the kitten would been born blue(grey) and curly. Therefore you cannot get a long haired Russian blue, but you can breed it with long haired cat to try and make one.

You can tell if a cat will be long-haired by looking at its parents. If both parents have long hair, there is a higher chance that the cat will also have long hair. Additionally, some breeds are known for having long hair, so if you know the breed of the cat, you can predict its hair length.

You have to breed a Birman with a Short-haired cat, in that order. If you put the Short-haired cat first then the Birman, it gives you a Ragamuffin, I think. When you put the Birman then Short-haired cat, it doesn't show you that you'll get a long-haired cat. It just shows a ? mark. Add melswanson502 and mswanson502. : )
The second parent must be a long-haired cat with a genotype of Ll (heterozygous for hair length). This is because the presence of both short-haired (ll) and long-haired (L_) kittens in the litter indicates that the long-haired cat is heterozygous for the long hair allele.
