“As you know, Betty was a rescue cat after being abandoned and ill treated. It has taken us some time to get her to trust us and she does not like being picked up and stroking her is on her terms only. We have been struggling to groom her and because she has a baggie belly she cannot reach some areas to groom herself. Betty also is troubled with the occasional fur ball. Betty was not the model cat in the grooming session however I was impressed with your patient and gentle approach throughout the session resulting in a bag of dead puddy fluff being removed from Betty. After the session she has been strutting her stuff, giving the impression that ‘she’s sexy and she knows it !’. Betty looks great, more streamlined and her fur shines, feels silky and there is no dandruff. Thank you Sandra. Please let me know when you have sorted out the March appointments as I would like to book Betty in ..”

“Many thanks Sandra for smoothing out my Rosie. Although a bit patchy she’s still friends with me. Now it’s a lot easier to keep her lustrous locks soft and shiny”

“Sandra, thank you so much for your time and patience with Molly. Your calm, soothing manner helped put her so at ease – so much so she seemed to be enjoying it. I was so worried she would be stressed but not at all !! Would not hesitate to recommend you and look forward to seeing you again in a few months time “

” … I can’t thank you enough, Ella has been perfect. She usually just sits with my dad but she has been showing off to everyone and even sat with the baby. She is so happy 🙂 xx my dad is over the moon with her. She has been grooming herself lots and generally more upbeat and wandering around. Even got a cuddle on my knee yesterday which is a first xxx We loved how she didn’t hide or try to hide on Sunday. She was perfect straight away, which shows she wasn’t frightened or stressed xxx thanks so much xxx”

“…thank you so much for coming over to groom my furbabies .. They are definitely much more comfier and happier and loads more self grooming … My Sabih is much more affectionate than normal too … “

“Thank you so much for coming to groom us yesterday, we both had a chat with each other in the afternoon and we were so happy our nails had been clipped and our coats were excess hair free.   The calendar magnet is useful as reminds our Mum/Dad of the important dates.  We are looking forward to our March visit”

“Thank you for the time you spend grooming Poppy as you could see before you left she played a lot that day – all that fur must have been weighing her down. The biggest change in her is her attachment to me. She is a lot more affectionate and sitting on my knee at every opportunity. She also follows me to bed for a cuddle pawing me when she doesn’t get enough attention. She has also let me brush out her beard, as we call it, a few times now. She’s still not very happy about it but we are leaving her brush out so she gets used to it and now she doesn’t run away when she sees it. We will be in touch again (sooner this time)”

“Vela’s fur presented a real challenge to us, having become severely matted over a period of months. Sandra handled Vela with care and attention and I was impressed with how skillfully she kept Vela calm through the process given her normal nervous demeanour. Since her clipping, Vela has become much more comfortable, grooming herself more frequently and even a little more affectionate with us too ! I would not hesitate to recommend EssentiallyPurrfect to anyone looking for a cat groom in future ! Thank you !”

“Thanks so much for yesterday Sandra – the girls are super happy following their most recent groom. Looking forward to seeing you again soon!”

“Our cats look great, very professional service will definitely use again”
