mr merlin
We called in to see 3 year old Maine Coon Merlin again in Lowton, Greater Manchester.
Merlin has certainly grown since the last time we met up, last year. He’s now an X-Large boy alright !
Merlin’s coat wasn’t particularly matted – just a few tangles here and there – but in general it was very thick and definitely ready for a brush out.
At the start of the session, Merlin was fidgety. However as we progressed he settled and enjoyed the music we played for him. He’s not too keen on his lower back / tail area being attended to – but had to we must, as they were particularly thick. Merlin does, however, love his ruff and shoulders being combed “Ooh, just a bit more, please”. So – a nice balance !
A few days after the session, mum Leanne said
“He’s always a bit of a wriggler and tends to get grumpy after a little while ! He looks fab and must be feeling good – he’s just brought home a massive blackbird”
It was a long session as Merlin is such a big boy and his coat was so thick – but he was such a good boy. Fidgety, Yes ! … but he was hiding his grumpiness today ! Well done Merlin !
