We called into to see Lucy again in Tyldesley, Wigan, Greater Manchester. Lucy is 4 years old and has now been with her new mum and dad for 4 months.
As we reported at the last visit, Lucy is quite a timid little girl and it has taken some time for her to start to build trust and feel at home in her new surroundings. There’s not too much known about her history, so mum and dad have taken it slowly – at Lucy’s pace. It’s working, as Lucy has really come on in leaps and bounds in terms of her confidence.
Today, Lucy’s coat was quite thin with hardly any shedding and didn’t need much attention. Her nails on the other hand were extremely long and sharp and she was starting to get caught on the rug and furniture. Although Lucy wasn’t keen on the idea, we clipped them back and now she’ll no doubt find getting about much easier. With house cats, and cats that are older or poorly it’s important to keep an eye on their nails to make sure that they are not overgrowing (the nail can grow right around and pierce the pad).
Following the session, Thembi and Colin said :
“Lucy says thanks for her nail trim and hair groom. She can now play without getting her paws (claws) tangled. Having a lazy day napping in sun whilst mum and dad go shopping for my horizontal scratch pad.”
Well done Lucy … Really proud of your new found confidence and that you’re obviously settling well into your new home. Not surprised really, with the gourmet banquet that’s laid on for you each day ! Hope there’s something there that you find you like !!
