fluffy mitzy
Here’s Mitzy – a new girl to join us !
Mitzy lives in Bolton, Greater Manchester with her mum and dad. She’s a Ragdoll and she’s around 5 years old.
Not too keen on being groomed, we weren’t quite sure how Mitzy would interact during her session. We took away ad hoc knots and mats that couldn’t be worked through, and brushed out the rest of Mitzy’s coat. Although Mitzy would rather have been doing something else on her Sat afternoon off, she tolerated proceedings very well.
Afterwards, mum Sarah and dad Roy said
“Would just like to thank you for the grooming session. We were quite apprehensive about it as Mitzy is quite a timid cat especially with people she doesn’t know. We need not have bothered ! We can’t believe how calm she was. Not only did she look beautiful when you finished she was so relaxed. We look forward to her next session.”
Great to hear ! Looking forward to it too … !
miss mindy
It was nice to see Mindy again in Astley, Manchester.
Mindy was due her manicure, as she’s a house cat these days and doesn’t wear her nails down as she used to do.
No fuss. What a good girl !
such high spirits
Himalayan Persian Spirit enjoyed his maintenance session recently in Cheadle, Stockport, Cheshire.
He knows what to expect and was patient as we worked through his thick coat and took his belly hair back nice and short. Much easier to manage (we don’t think he even misses it !).
Here’s Spirit – Having a snooze on the grooming table at the end of his session …
miss pip
Piper in Darwen, Lancashire is the most friendly, loving girl you could meet. She has a long fluffy coat and needed help with it as it had become pelted in places.
However, Piper wasn’t quite as pleased to find herself on the grooming table. In fact, she went out of her way to persuade us that it wasn’t a good idea.
It was worth it though she said afterwards as that evening she was feeling much lighter and comfier – oh, and back to her happy little self.
Well done Piper !
mr red
Red. Siberian. Siberian Forest Cat. Sandbach. Cheshire.
You know Red, right ?
We had our regular session recently and as always, Red was such a good boy. Fidgety to begin with …. Asking him to leave the table at the end !
See you soon Red !
what’s going on in tyldesley ?
The Tyldesley girls in Greater Manchester were ready for their manicure sessions when we called in on them recently.
As always, Lucy, Jess and Lily were compliant. Lucy has gone from a very nervous young lady, to almost quite chilled about the whole affair. Jess – well, she’s just cool. Lily found her second session still a little difficult – she’s a very nervous 6 month old kitten recently rescued.
On the other hand, Rosie was very cheeky about the whole affair. We’d heard about this side of her personality before, but never seen it in action. Rosie was adamant that her nails were already perfect, thank you !
As always, nice seeing you girls !
fluffy fluff
Fluff in Wigan, Greater Manchester asked us to call in on him again to have a look at his coat, which had begun to clump in places – particularly underneath and on one side. Mum does comb Fluff, but he’s really not that keen and makes it hard work for her.
On the grooming table today, Fluff definitely knew what it was all about and he remembered his last session. He was vocal again today in parts, but chilled in between his songs !
After the session, mum Viv said
“thank you so much for being so patient. He’s not the easiest of cats ,you’ve done a lovely job of fluffy xxxxxx”
… and Fluff ? Oh he was ever so pleased with himself. Cuddles and head bumps galore !
friendly clyde
Clyde in Preston was surprised to see us in Preston, Lancashire. The last time we met up was around 3 years ago, in his former house – so he wasn’t sure just how we’d found him ! Saying that, he came and met us in the garden with all smiles and head rubs.
Clyde is now around 5 years old, and he’s a Maine Coon.
His coat isn’t awfully thick, and he generally takes good care of it himself. Today was all about a brush out to spruce him up for Spring.
Nice catching up with you again, Clyde !
the urmston chicks
We called in to see the Urmston chicks recently for their manicure sessions.
As always, everyone was as good as gold. The girls (Tiger-Lily and Florence) are now well used to their sessions and although they’d rather not – thanks anyway ! – they don’t kick up a fuss. Oscar Bear just loves attention and he had to be asked to leave the table afterwards.
Nice seeing you all again !
sweet elvis
Persian Elvis in Middleton, Great Manchester was due his maintenance clip recently.
Elvis has the most enormous coat, which is very cotton wool-y making it very difficult to comb through. Hence, he really doesn’t like being groomed and he easily becomes matted.
Take a look at our facebook page and watch a very short video clip of Elvis in action (!) just after his session
