pretty alex
Alex from Skelmersdale, Lancashire ….. Yes ! He was ready for his maintenance session, there is no doubt !
He required a little help particularly around his rear quarters and a good thinning out elsewhere. Well done, Alex !
darling daisy
Here’s 5 year old Daisy from Preston, Lancashire.
Daisy (and her sister Lily) are lucky to have found their new mum and dad recently – and Daisy has settled in soooo well. She loves all the love and affection she’s found, and really enjoys a good fuss ! What breed is Daisy ? She’s a Birman.
Daisy’s coat isn’t too difficult to manage, but she benefited from a work through her coat and a paw trim.
Nice session, Daisy !
pretty penny
Come and meet Penny ! Penny turned up on the doorstep about 12 months ago and, well, she never left ! Apparently, she decided that she quite liked the new pad she’d found in Sale, Greater Manchester and made it her new home.
We think that Penny is around 10 years old, and she is totally deaf. She was in pretty poor shape when she moved in – extremely thin, with a thyroid condition.
Needless to say, Penny has put on weight, her medication is keeping her condition under control and she’s now content as a house cat.
Mum had started to comb through Penny’s head and shoulders but her coat was proving a little daunting as there was such a great area to work through.
So, we met up with Penny for a session and there’s no doubt that Penny was a STAR ! She was so compliant. Even allowing her tummy to be combed out with no fuss at all !
A great session and so pleasing to see Penny’s coat looking so well afterwards. We were able to comb out over 95% of the clumps and took away just a tiny section from Penny’s back with the clippers. Fabby !
handsome harvey
Harvey ? Anyone ??!!
This handsome fellow was realllllllly ready for his maintenance session recently in Hebden Bridge, Yorkshire. Really ready in that Harvey needs a little help around the toileting area, as well as thinning out his enormous all round coat. (… and he loves it, on the quiet !)
After the session, mum Lauren said
“Just wanted to say thanks so much as always.. I say it every time I think but I just don’t know what we would do without you! Another great session.. and I’m so glad you can also offer us the service of coming on more regular visits.. I know it will make his quality of life better and shorter sessions, to tame his gigantic coat, will be welcomed by all of us! grin emoticon I love how he greets you though and always hangs around as you are packing up… its just all attention seeking up on the table! wink emoticon Always a pleasure and see you again in a few weeks xx”
Nice session, Harvey !!
We called in on Lola again in Bolton, Greater Manchester.
Lola is a very nervous girl and she had to be retrieved from her hiding place upstairs. However, once on the grooming table she relaxed some – and dare we even say enjoyed parts of the fussing.
Her coat was ready for a work through and a few lugs were removed along the way.
Dad Stuart sent a picce through a few days after Lola’s session. Just chillin’ !!
Nice seeing you again Lola !
pretty athena
Athena is a Persian and as such has such a thick coat.
She is always much happier after her Lion Clip in Middleton, Greater Manchester. Far far less to hair to contend with and take care of !
A nice session – less fidgety than usual. Well done Athena !
fluffy oliver
Fluffy Persian Oliver was due his maintenance session again recently in Winsford, Cheshire.
A nice chilled session as Oliver is now well used to proceedings (he used to be fidgety)… a lovely Belly Clip and brush out … and afterwards, Oliver said he was feeling like a million dollars !
lovely lara
Come and say Hello to Lara.
Lara is almost 12 months old and she is Siberian (Siberian Forest Cat) who lives in Liverpool, Merseyside.
This was Lara’s first session and she was very patient whilst pelts were removed from around her body. Lara is a nervous girl and some of the areas to be removed were extremely tight, so the clipping was intense in parts. Lara fared very well indeed !
super chilled logan
We were asked to call in to meet up with Logan in Glossop, Derbyshire as his coat had developed a few knotty areas that needed a work through.
Logan was fast asleep, upside down, in his cat bed when we arrived. He woke up with a little sweet talk and proceeded to lick and lick and lick. Is it possible to be licked to death ?
He is still only young at 18 months old, but is already a large, heavy boy. On the grooming table he was fidgety- oh, and he let us know he’d rather be back in bed, thank you very much – but he did calm as the session progressed. We took away a few lumps and bumps and had a good brush out.
After the session, mum Anna said
“….big thanks for your patience with grumbling logan! You are a god send and so patient with him, I’m so happy he is back to his usual gorgeous fluffy self ! He ended up cleaning himself for over an hour and then made friends again with us by snuggling on the couch (photo to come) thanks again!”
Thanks ! Nice session, Logan !
darling dexter
Here’s Maine Coon / Persian cross Dexter from Manchester.
Dexter benefited again recently from his maintenance clip. He’s now well used to our sessions and they have certainly become easier for him.
