lovely louie
Say a biiiiig Hello to Louie. Louie is a cream and brown 9 year old Persian who lives with his housemates and mum in Crewe, Cheshire.
It’s fair to say that Louie has landed on his feet, after he chose his new mum whilst he was living at a cat rescue shelter. Louie, along with his feline and canine housemates are all adored.
When Louie arrived at his new home he was very nervous, and hated being groomed. It has taken mum lots of dedicated, tender 1:1 time to give Louie the confidence and manner he has today. When we arrived it took Louie just a couple of minutes before he decided to come into the room and check us and the equipment out. A very friendly boy.
Mum was a little apprehensive before the session began, as Louie has never been professionally groomed before. However, he took to it like a duck to water and sat patiently whilst we tended to his nails and his coat. Just one or 2 small areas that needed extra attention on his coat and a good brush out (see the hair that came away). His lower legs and feet were particularly clumpy, as Louie doesn’t really like his mum to work on those areas – but he is very tolerant of the rest, and mum combs him twice a day, every day.
As the session went on we think that Louie not only sat patiently – he was enjoying the fuss !
A couple of days after the session, mum Sheila said :
“Louie is so relaxed after his groom. He keeps going back into the room where we had the session and I think he’s missing you, he’s looking for you. My friend came around yesterday and she remarked on how beautiful Louie looks. I really am delighted, you’ve done a lovely job. I really like the comb I got from you too, it’s superb. I began combing Louie this morning – and told him we had to do it as that lady will be checking up on us !”
Well done Louie – you were such a good boy. Looking forward already to seeing you again for your Spring brush out.
