beautiful mishka
Meet a new recruit to our gang – Mishka ! Mishka is around 13 years old, and she lives in Kirkby, Liverpool with her mum.
Mishka has the most incredibly thick coat and now as she’s getting older, she’s not able to look after it quite the same. So, some matted areas had developed – mainly around her lower back and flank area.
Such a friendly, affectionate girl. Mishka came out from her hiding place under the table to say Hello, and to have a good sniff at all the bags and equipment.
We began the session by ridding Miskha of the worst of the matting so as to make her more comfortable on top. Then we worked underneath and pleasingly were able to brush out and save most of this area. We followed this by an incredible brush out and after the session Mishka really did look like she’d lost weight ! See the piccie of the hair that came away !
The little love was so well behaved throughout. It was quite tough going for her in parts but Mishka was very tolerant of the comb so we were able to save much of her upper coat. She really did seem to know from the start what it was all about.
Afterwards, Mishka came over and sat herself down on the settee right next to us. Oh yes – She did look rather pleased with herself !
Well done Mishka, you’ll be feeling so much more comfy now chicky !
