lovely lizzie
Lizzie was a very good girl during her recent brush out session in Altrincham, Cheshire.
Lizzie’s a tabby Maine Coon and she’s around 6 years. Who remembers Lizzie ?
Absolutely nothing to worry about, Lizzie’s coat was in tip top condition. Both she and mum have done well to keep on top of the brushing so well.
We combed through underneath laid down, but Lizzie was much happier sat on all 4s whilst we worked through the rest of her coat. Not a bad bone in this chick’s body and much more settled this session. Lizzie obviously remembered and had taken on board that actually – it wasn’t that bad !
Really well done Lizzie … Such a star !
pretty alice
Here’s young Alice from Stockport, Cheshire.
Alice is a 5 year old Ragdoll/Persian cross who lives with her sister and housemate – and human family, of course.
A very gentle girl – with a thick coat ! Mum has done a great job of keeping on top of Alice’s coat since we last met up. Today was mostly about a good brush out, and working through a couple of ad-hoc knots and tangles. The thickest part of Alice’s coat was around her shoulders/neck area, where it was just about beginning to clump a little.
Although a little fidgety, Alice was such a good girl during our session. We had lots of chat whilst we worked through.
Well done Alice !!
cutie dexter
Here’s 9 year old Dexter in Chorlton, Manchester after his most recent Lion Clip.such a champion
Hercules Champion was definitely ready for his session this time around. His coat is thickening up for winter, no doubt !
You all know Hercules C – right ? He’s a Maine Coon who lives in Kirkham, Lancashire with his mum. Hercules C is 16 years old but he certainly doesn’t look it ! the maine man
We met up with Monty again recently. Monty’s lives with his brother and housemates (and family !) in Altrincham, Cheshire. mr scrag
17 year old Scrag asked us to call in to see him in Stockport, Cheshire as he’d developed mats and clumps in his coat.
Scrag is a short haired guy, but as he’s grown older he has stopped self grooming – which is often the case.
He was quite subdued when he found himself on the grooming table, but coped very well. However, we decided to split Scrag’s session over 2 visits as he really wasn’t keen on us working on his tummy – and there was quite a lot of work to do under there.
On the 2nd visit, mum reported that Scrag had much more mojo ! Mary said
“…. Scrag would like to say a big thank you to you for grooming him. He’s feeling like a new cat (jumping up all over the place again!).”
He certainly was walking around the kitchen with more intent and swagger …… and nosey ? Yes – Nosey !
So pleased you’re feeling comfier, Scrag – Well done !
razzle tazzle
Tazzle the Ragdoll lives in Stockport, Cheshire. You remember him, right ?
Tazzle is about 5 years old now and he’s the most laid back chappy you could meet. Such a loving, gentle boy.
It’s around 10 months since we last saw Tazzle and he and his mum have been keeping on top of his coat so well.
Just a couple of tangles were unpicked with the hands and the rest of his coat was nicely brushed out.
Following the session, mum Maria said
“Tazzle looked amazing,just like his father and Bella was definitely inspired to groom herself much more than usual. I’ve been trying to keep on top of Alice’s beautiful fur coat by brushing her everyday; as like you said it’s as thick as Tazzle and Bella’s combined!”
(Bella and Alice’s story will follow). Well done big man !
pretty misty
Misty was a happy little Maine Coon chick when we visited her in Oldham, Greater Manchester this time around.
We call on Misty regularly to keep on top of her coat, and she was really thickening up for winter at this visit !
Friendly and playful as ever, we had a good brush out and removed a couple of lugs from here and there.
Nice seeing you Misty !
pretty jessica
Give a big welcome to new girl on the block, Jessica in Sale, Manchester.
Jessica is a tabby Maine Coon and she’s around 2.5 years old.
We were called in to take a look at Jessica’s coat as it had developed a few mats. She had actually managed to remove some of them herself before we arrived for the appointment. There were just a couple remaining on her chest and around the rear quarters / trousers.
A very inquisitive, friendly girl ! A little fidgety on the grooming table, but all forgotten straight away afterwards as she got back to playing with her fishing rod toy.
After the session, mum Linda and dad Mike said
“We cannot thank and recommend Sandra enough. Sandra sorted out our MC Jessica’s rear end clumping and gave us some helpful tips. Jessica is already more jaunty and strutting her stuff. We will definitely ask Sandra to return in early spring when Jessica’s winter coat returns. Sandra is a lovely person, presents a very professional approach and very attentive to detail.”
bonny bailey
Who remembers our Bailey from Alderley Edge, Cheshire ?
At around 10 years old, Bailey is the most sweet, loving boy you could meet. He enjoys spending time out in his garden, or going for a walk on his harness.
Bailey’s coat had thickened up a little for winter. Not fully there yet by any means, but heavier than last time we saw him during the Autumn.
No knots to speak of, we had a gentle brush out and trimmed Bailey’s pads and bib. … and although he’d rather have been back in bed – thanks – he was such a good boy overall.
Well done Bailey boy !
