who’s having a laugh ?

Milo and Illy March 2011+(c)Here is a really striking piccie, sent to us by mum Jo, of Illy and Milo – 2 Siamese customers of ours.  What lovely teeth you have Illy !

Milo has obviously said something really striking or funny to Illy, judging from Illy’s expression.  What on earth could it have been ?  Come over to our facebook page and tell us what you think !


bella the beauty

DSCN1401A Bella 181013 cropped2+(c)We called on this pretty young lady, to help her with a few knots that had developed in her coat and a full brush out before winter arrives.

Bella is quite an anxious girl but she soon warmed, and was very friendly with her head rubs !  We worked through and removed some small areas with the clippers – which didn’t phase Bella one bit – followed by the brush and combs.  Bella was a little fidgety, but overall she behaved very well for her first session.

Mum Sam from Golborne, Wigan later said :

“My cat Bella was groomed today, first time in 7 years (exceptional circumstances I’m not a bad mum really). Sandra was friendly, professional and went all out to gain Bella’s confidence. I now have a content little girl who’s coat looks better than it has in a long time. Thanks!

Well done Bella, you’ll feel so much more comfy now ….


mr le shah

DSCN1375A the Shah 171013 cropped+(c)We were delighted to see one of our favourite fellows again recently … the Shah, from Salford, Manchester.

It’s around 10 weeks since we last saw him, and at the point we took away some mats that had formed around the back and lower parts of the Shah’s body.  Today it was very pleasing to see the hair growing back so beautifully, and totally knot free.DSCN1383A the Shah 171013 cropped+(c)

Dad Tony has been doing such a good job – not only keeping on top of the Shah’s coat, but also working with him to make him understand that it’s a job that just has to be done.  The Shah’s patience and tolerance level today was much improved on his last session.

Well done the Shah !  We’d tell you that you’re a handsome boy – but we think you already know !  See you again soon ….


hercules champion

DSCN1373A Hercules Champion 111013 cropped+(c)Hercules Champion is a very handsome 14 year old Maine Coon.

He isn’t used to being groomed, so he behaved very well as he let us work on those hard to reach areas – tummy/bum/flanks – where knots had developed.  After the session mum rewarded  him with his favourite tuna !DSCN1374A Hercules Champion 111013 cropped+(c)

 

 

 

 

A few days later, mum Gerry from Kirkham, on the Fylde, Lancashire told us :

“Since Hercules Champion had his groom and mats taken away, you can tell from his face that he is chuffed as anything !  Hercules is 14 years old, but he now looks at least 4 or 5 years younger.  He has now reverted to his cheeky kitten behaviour and is cock of the north again !   Hercules is doing a lot more grooming and he definitely is appreciating me more.  I am really happy that we called in EssentiallyPurrfect to sort out his coat.”

Nice to work with you Gerry and Hercules Champion, and looking forward to our next visit already !

little minnie

DSCN1360A Mini 101013 cropped+(c)This rather beautiful little girl has a gorgeous coat, which mum tends to very well.  Minnie, a 6 years old domestic long hair, just had 1 mat underneath, which needed attention.DSCN1367A Mini 101013 cropped+(c)

Minnie is a very friendly girl, and gave us lots of rubs and kisses – both before and after the session … and even came upstairs to the loo with us.  Nosey !

Following the session, mum Margaret from Urmston, Manchester said :

“I was very pleased that Sandra took the time and had the patience to reassure my cat Minnie before she started to clip a matted clump of fur from her.  If the problem occurs again, I would not hesitate to ring Sandra again.  Thanks again Sandra”

Thanks for calling us in, Margaret – and nice to work with you little Minnie !


our fudge

DSCN1368A Fudge 101013 cropped+(c)It was lovely to be asked to meet up with Fudge again, in Astley, Greater Manchester.  Fudge is an 18 years old lad, who is a little nervous is nature.

Once Fudge remembered that the nail clipping wasn’t too bad, he sat patiently whilst we clipped the other paws.   Although Fudge is short haired, his coat has recently developed tufts – particularly around the flanks, sides and back areas.  We gave him a good brush out to relieve him of this excess hair.  Mum and dad had caught it just in time …. a few more weeks down the line and we may well have needed to clip some hair away.

Well done Fudge – you were a bit fidgety, but a real brave boy !

sweet james

DSCN1351A James 081013 cropped+(c)Say Hello to sweet James, a 13 years old Domestic Short Hair (DSH) from Swinton, Manchester – who called us in to have a look at his coat.

James is quite a big boy – on the larger size of medium.  He isn’t really used to be handled by others, and is quite timid in nature.   However, once on our grooming table James settled down.  He didn’t mind his nails being trimmed, and lay patiently watching the world go by through the window whilst we set about giving him a good brush out.  James’ fur was starting to clump in places, so really we caught him just in time to avoid any mats forming.

A couple of days after the session, we received a lovely message from James himself :

“Hi – My mommy asked me to send you an email to say thank you for tidying up my coat.

I was a bit scared at first when mommy said you were coming to the house to sort me out and I’m sorry that I had wee where I shouldn’t and tried to run off. But we soon got to know each other; the special cat relaxation music you played was lovely – I soon chilled out and felt so much better as you gently combed my coat and tickled my ears and tummy.

I was sorry when it all came to an end, my doggy friend Jasper was jealous and says I smelt like a girl but I don’t care…my new coat is lovely and so much easier for me to manage because before you came it was getting hard for me to clean on my own and I used to get really upset when I couldn’t reach the parts that other cats can reach.

And now I’m the talk of the neighbourhood with my shiny coat – a proper bobby dazzler…I even got a couple of wolf whistles from the Labrador across the road.

Mommy says she’d like you to come back soon… I’d like it if you could come back every day!!

Thank you very much – James xx”

You did really well, James – very proud of you and it’d be lovely to see you again …. Just tell Mommy, when you’re ready and we’ll sort it out !

We called to see the Cheshire gang again, as they were due their maintenance grooms.
