pretty kizzy

Kizzy Whizz. Persian. Huyton. Liverpool. 7 years old. Remember Kizzy ?

It’s lovely to hear that Kizzy is a much happier young lady since we first met up with her about 18 months ago.

Kizzy naturally has the most thick, difficult to comb coat. As she didn’t like being brushed, her coat easily became matted and she no doubt felt uncomfortable with it.

from the sky

We caught up again with Skyfall who lives in Altrincham, Cheshire. Sky is around 3 years old now and he is, of course, a Persian. A Himalayan Persian.

How things have progressed for young Sky. The first time we met up – which was about 6 months ago – Sky really wasn’t for being brushed. He objected quite strongly and this was making it difficult for mum to keep on top of his thick coat.

Since then, with regular sessions and a daily routine from mum, Sky has learnt to accept that it’s not a choice thing ! His coat has now regrown fully and looks really well. He’s still not as keen on underneath being tended to – so he routinely has a Belly Clip – but on top ? Wow Sky ! You’re looking great !!

as white as snow

Snowy in Little Hoole, Lancashire needed help with removing a few lugs from his tummy and armpits – but apart from that he’d done a real good job of keeping on top of his coat. Really, as white as snow !

As always, Snowy (or Snowball on a Sunday) relaxed into the session and actually, he enjoyed some of the attention – even though he wouldn’t admit it to you !

Nice seeing you again Snowy !

part burmese ?

It’s a while since we last met up with Molly from Urmston, Manchester.

When we saw her again this time around, her coat was definitely ready for the Session ! Molly is short haired, but every so thick. We think she may have some Burmese in her, somewhere. It had become extremely tufty and clumpy – particularly around her flanks, rear quarters and trousers.

Molly’s not keen on being brushed. She’d much rather be out in that garden, chilling. However, she was a good girl and humoured us whilst we got on with ridding her of all that excess hair. Lots and lots of dead hair.

miss meeko

We were asked to meet up with Meeko in Didsbury, Manchester.

Meeko is quite a nervous 4 year old Maine Coon, until she gets to know you. It took Meeko a couple of minutes to settle on the grooming table, before she relaxed into the session.

We clipped away some offending lumps and bumps – mainly from underneath and around her flanks – and gave the rest of her coat a good brush out.

little mary

Little British Short Hair Mary enjoyed her latest manicure. Enjoyed as in she sat and intently watched the goings on in her garden in Altrincham, Cheshire – from a high up vantage point on the grooming table !

Oh – and the nails ?! – That was just a side activity of little interest to young Mary. The birds took precedence !

mr harry

Here’s Mr Harry from Huyton, Merseyside. Hands up if you remember Mr Harry !!

At just 4 years old, Mr H is the sweetest Persian boy you could meet. Inquisitive, loving and friendly. A bit of a fidget today, but nothing that a little chat couldn’t sort out.

After the Session, Mr H said he was definitely feeling much lighter and comfier about himself !

betsy boo

Come and meet Betsy. We are not quite sure how old Betsy is. 12? 14? 16? 18? She lives with her mum in Liverpool, Merseyside.

Although Betsy’s coat is short, it is very plush and dense and as time has gone on, Betsy is less able to keep herself in tip top condition. Hence, her coat had become tufted and matted in places. Betsy’s coat is predominantly black – although most of the tips have grey/silver flecks. Maybe an age thing ?

Betsy has been known not to particularly like being combed, nor having her nails clipped. However, she was on her best behaviour today and lay very compliant whilst we got on with the job in hand. Lots and sweet talk and fuss ….. Oh, she lapped it up.

miss tilly

It was great to meet up with Maine Coon Tilly again in Blackpool, Lancashire.

We’ve seen Tilly a good number of times, but not since around Christmas time. She’s been poorly with an ulcer in her mouth and hasn’t been feeling on top of the world.

Today, dad reported that Tilly is back on her food and is slowly putting weight back on. Good stuff – carry on the good work Tilly!

lady lizzie

Sweet Lizzie from Altrincham, Cheshire recently found herself on the grooming table again.

Lizzie, as you can see, is a brown tabby Maine Coon. She’s around 7 years old now and it’s fair to say that she is quite a hefty girl.

With a coat in good condition, it didn’t take long to work through for a brush out, removing a couple of small offending areas. Lizzie said she’d rather be back upstairs in bed, thank you – but she humoured us and afterwards ? Yes, that’s just where she was. Back upstairs in bed !
