Here’s our friend Mitzi from Wigan, Lancashire.
Who remembers Mitzi ??
Mitzi is the sweetest girl you could meet. She’s now about 10 years old and she has a lovely, long thick coat.
Today, we had a brushout and removed a couple of small mats from underneath.
Mitzi was such a good girl and we had a good chat throughout the session. Mitzi’s deaf these days, but she certainly still knows how to chat away !
Following the session, mum Sue said
“Sandra called to give Mitzi her Christmas “haircut” and as a result she looked gorgeous for the festivities !
Although Mitzi employed a few delaying tactics at first, she remembered Sandra has become one of her best friends. Sandra performed her usual skill, managing to deal with Mitzi’s difficult claws and underneath bits with hardly any protest from Mitzi. Another successful session !

6 year old Alex in Skelmersdale, Lancashire really was ready for his maintenance brush out when we called on him recently.
We first met up with Alex back in Sep 15. At that point, Alex’s coat had become pelted and we took away a large section around his rear quarters and lower back area.
Today, Alex’s coat is regrowing nicely. Not fully grown yet, but his coat in general had thickened up ready for winter and there was much resistance on this comb.
It was a more fidgety session than our first get together. Saying that, the room was very warm. It really is important in a session for the environment to be cool.
We’re sure that Alex will be feeling the benefit of his thinner coat. Nice seeing you again, Alex !

“This is the second time I have used essentially purrfect and am so happy with the gentle and caring manner Sandra dealt the task of grooming and shaving one rather reluctant pet. My knotted feline friend hates being groomed by me, infact doesn’t allow me to do anything other than try and pull knots apart and that’s always when she knows she is fairly safe ie when I get in bed and ready for settling to sleep. I can shamefacedly say that I left the gap between grooming sessions far too long!! Sandra handled her so gently and put her (and myself) at great ease and the end result is that I now have a miniature lion who has been like a new creature again the last couple of weeks! Happy, contented, more playful and energetic and loves grooming herself again. The added bonus for me is less scratching and matted fur deposits around my home. I won’t make the mistake again of leaving it so long next time!! Essentially Purrfect are essential!!”
