gorgeous gregg
This chick is 4 year old Gregg who we believe is a Persian cross.
Gregg has had quite a life so far, having been rescued by his mum from the streets of Qatar. She arranged for all the necessary jabs and paperwork and flew him over for a new life in Burscough, Lancashire.
It’s fair to say that Gregg has settled in to his new home. Oh yes – he’s fully in charge, for sure.
Gregg’s coat is naturally long and full. Lots of it ! We decided to clip him back, as we thought this would make him lighter and happier. Gregg has been clipped once before in Qatar, but this was under sedation – so we weren’t sure just how he would react to the session.
We began very well. Gregg wasn’t in the least bit afraid of the clippers, which we tested out underneath before beginning to work on his back. He was very still, calm and compliant. Until he decided that enough was enough – then Gregg did everything within his power to call the session to a halt. Mum understood that Gregg really wasn’t upset – he just thought that he was the boss !
After the session, Gregg was slinking up and down – obviously already enjoying his new look.
