beautiful tabitha

20150213_172126A Tabatha 130215+(c)It’s always interesting how a cat reacts during a grooming session. Sometimes not in keeping with what mum or dad expected.

Little Tabitha joined our gang recently. Tabitha is almost 3 years old and lives with her mum in Chester, Cheshire. She has the most lovely colouring and markings, being a Silver Shaded Siberian (Siberian Forest Cat). Siberian tom cats are usually quite large at around 5-6kg (11-13lb), but females are much smaller averaging 4-5kg (9-11lb).

The Siberian coat is believed to possess hypoallergenic qualities. However, rather than making an assumption that all will be well it is generally advised that allergy sufferers check their reactivity directly with the parent cats, from whom they plan to adopt a kitten.

Today was Tabitha’s first professional grooming session and her coat was in a lovely condition. Mum is able to comb frequently and this showed in her coat. There were just one or 2 tangles that had developed, mainly underneath and around the armpits. We gave the rest of TabItha’s coat a comb through to remove dead undercoat.

When we’d arrived, Tabitha had been nervous as she knew something was afoot and stayed on the window bottom, behind the curtain, hoping out of sight out of mind ! However, once on the grooming table, Tabitha was as good as gold. Mum had thought that it would be quite a vocal session, but not a muff was made. Calm, gentle and compliant was little Tabitha whilst we got to work and she really wasn’t afraid of the clippers or the comb.

Mum Helen later told us

“Hi Sandra, thanks for yesterday. I got a very vocal telling off after you left and Tabitha prowled the whole house, I think she was checking you weren’t hiding, waiting to give her another going over! Even the prawns waited till she was done! The session went much better than I expected, she’s such a timid girl! Although I wouldn’t say she enjoyed the first meeting, you managed to keep us both calm and I’m sure she feels better for having those knots removed. She’s definitely looking good and has been very active and purry. I’m sure Tabitha will be looking forward to our next session xhx”

A really enjoyable session all round, and a big applause for Tabitha. Well done chicky !
