fluffy oliver

20160525_183052A Oliver 250516 cropped+(c)This young man is Oliver.

Oliver is a Birman and he hangs out in Stockport, Cheshire with his housemate and family. He’s around 5 years old now.

After a spell in the cattery, Oliver’s coat was in need of a good work through. It was quite clumpy all, over but particularly around his flanks and sides. We teased out where possible, but Oliver was a very sensitive young chap to any combing. He much preferred the clipper.

Fidgety but lovely, Oliver ! We’ll be seeing both you and your housemate in the Autumn. ‘Til then ….


bobby dazzler

bobby from James 250516 cropped+(c)It was nice to call in again on Maine Coon Bobby in Wilmslow, Cheshire.

Bobby's hair 250516Bobby is a big girl. She is just 3 years old, with a long thick coat which easily becomes tangled.

We had a thorough brush out today. Bobby was ridded of a few lumps and bumps – and a lot of dead hair !

Well done Bobby …. All ready for summer now ! See you again in a few weeks time !


mr red

20160525_121304A Red 250516 cropped+(c)A big shout out if you know Red ??!!

Red, a Siberian Forest Cat in Sandbach, Cheshire is a real friendly guy. He’s around 3 years old now and he has a big coat, that needs some looking after !

We meet up with Red on a regular basis and he is well used to his sessions. We always start fidgety. Then we move on to accepting. Then, at the end, Red needs to be removed from the table ! You love all the fuss really, Red !

Here’s Red – with his usual paw in the air !


3 beauties

The 3 Urmston chicks asked us to call in again for their regular manicure sessions.

DSCN1878A Tiger-Lily 050214 cropped20160520_190201 Florence 200516 cropped+(c)Florence and Tiger-Lily – Oriental variants – were their usual gentle, lovely selves. Little fuss, and it was all over within a couple of minutes.

20160520_183901 Oscar 200516 cropped+(c)Oscar had prepared for the session. He was wearing his favourite bow tie, which comes out for visitors ! It suits him, and he knows it !

As always, nails were no fuss and he was soon settled on the grooming table asking – what next ? … no, that’s it Oscar, well done !   Hehe …

Nice see you again girls and guys !


dinky dolly

20150227_161151A Dolly 270215 cropped+(c)Here’s Dolly !

You’ve met Persian cross Dolly before. We see her regularly up in Carnforth, Lancashire to keep on top of her long, thick coat.

She’s not keen on mum and dad combing her, so her coat gets a few lugs here and there. Mainly underneath – those armpits, tummy, chester and rear.

Today, we made Dolly comfy and ridded her of hair from her coat she no longer needed. A much lighter coat for Summer Dolly – Well done chick !


exotic luigi

Luigi and hair from 240516 +(c)We called in on our our friend Exotic Longhair Luigi from Windermere, Cumbria again.

Luigi is always ready for a good brush out. His coat is sooooo thick ! See the piccie of the hair that came away this time. It’s supposed to be a summer groom, Luigi !

As always, Luigi was a good boy. He’s not keen, but his confidence has certainly grown. Originally, very nervous and fidgety. Now, he goes with the flow and snoozes through the most part !


gentle albert

20151203_194243A Albert 031215 cropped+(c)Albert in Urmston, Manchester was due his regular manicure/pedicure recently.

Albert doesn’t play out really these days. He had an accident some time ago which has left him with restricted mobility. He doesn’t really weight bear on one front paw and therefore it’s important to keep on top of his nails as they don’t wear down the same anymore.

A very gentle boy, Albert makes no fuss and it’s all over before it’s begun. He’s not keen – ie. he’d rather not – but he knows it’s all for the best and we just get on with it.

Well done, Albert. You’re a star !


perfect peaches

20160519_192523A Peaches 190516 autocorrect and cropped+(c)A new girl on our patch is Peaches. Say Hello !

Hair Peaches 190516 croppedPeaches is a couple of years old and she is a British Shorthair variant in Northwich, Cheshire who has the thickest coat going ! Ready for a work through ? Yes !

Such a gentle lady, Peaches was so compliant and accommodating. We worked through her session and she took it all on board. Her belly clip, nails, hygiene trim, trousers, bib, pads – and of course a thorough brush out – no problem for Peaches. What a good girl !

A few days after our session, mum Rita said

“I was really pleased with you and how you handled Peaches. She was so relaxed with your approach towards her, which made me relaxed too. After you had gone she went straight to her toys and started playing with them, I’m also really pleased with her cut & she looks beautiful. Thanks so much & definitely would have you in future, look forward to seeing you soon”


baby broccoli

20160126_185421 autocorrected Broccol 260116+(c)Little Broccoli was ready for her maintenance session recently when we caught up with her in Salford, Manchester.

Such a lovely little girl, but rather a drama queen. Broccoli is around 15 months old now and she has a thick Persian coat to go with it.

A couple of days after the session, mum Ciara said

“Thanks for another great session Sandra, now that Broccoli the diva has stopped pretending that grooming is an ordeal she is very pleased with her summer coat and is strutting around showing it off. Professional, efficient and friendly as always. Such an excellent service especially for picky Persians like mine”

Broccoli then decided to add her own opinion  to matters :

“I am SULKING because my friend Sandra came and took away all my hairs and knots I was saving up!!!! I screamed and wriggled and she still decided to torture me and my BUM HAIRS but she gave me a lovely stroke and said I was beautiful and cleaned my eyes so maybe I’ll forgive her”

Oh, Broccoli – You’re so funny.  Lovely seeing you both again … Let mum comb, Broccoli !


pretty phoebe

20160519_162045A Phoebe 190516 cropped+(c)We called in to see Persian Phoebe again in Winsford, Cheshire.

20160519_144043B Phoebe 190516 cropped b4 the sessionPhoebe’s sessions have been getting easier for her, although she is still not a happy camper. This was session number 5. To date, each session Phoebe has had a belly clip and a good thin out on top with the brush. She really doesn’t like being combed day to day, and underneath is a definite no-go zone for mum. Hence, her coat quickly becomes matted.

Today, we decided that a Full Clip was in order for Phoebe and this will make the next few weeks much easier for everyone concerned in terms of her coat’s maintenance.
