fluffy boy !

Bailey’s coat was thickening up a little, when we met up with him this time around in Chester, Cheshire.

We had a very relaxed Session as we worked through Bailey’s coat and removed the excess undercoat that had built up.

No doubt when we next see Bailey he’ll be in full Winter coat mode – ie. tons of it !

cuddly teddy bear

Mr Teddy Bear from the Wirral …. Who recognises Mr Teddy Bear ?

Mr Teddy Bear is a Longhaired Exotic (in some circles, a Persian) – who has the most long, thick, fluffy, long – did we mention thick ? – coat you can imagine.

We know that he always feels better after his maintenance clip. Here he is, topping up his tum, straight after his Session (and the piccie on the top right is just before the Session).

Looking great, Mr Teddy Bear !

baby buffy

We saw our little friend Buffy again in Liverpool, Merseyside recently.

You may remember that Buffy is 19 years old now. The first time we met up with Buffy her coat was rather clumpy and we took away quite a large section for her comfort.

Today, Buffy’s nails were ready for attention again, and her coat had a work through. It’s growing back nicely which is lovey to see. It was really noticeable too that Buffy was much calmer on the grooming table which obviously because she’s feeling much better and comfier about herself.

See you again soon, Buffy !

wrriggggley Theo

Here’s a new guy to join our club – Chinchilla Persian Theo from Glossop, Derbyshire.

Theo is just 10 months old and has, as a Persian, a very thick long coat. Really not keen on being brushed, particularly underneath, Theo had developed a matted coat on his undercarriage.

One x Belly Clip and Brush Out later, Theo was feeling like a new chap. Oh, it had been a wrigggggggglllllllly Session – but all was forgiven as soon as his little feet hit the floor and Theo was free to carry on with his usual cat stuff.

Well done Theo !

beautiful betty

Here’s 6 year old Betty from Rochdale, Greater Manchester.

Today was Betty’s 3rd Session with us and everyone will agree that it was a much calmer affair.

Even though Betty’s coat is short, it was thickening up particularly around her upper chest, flanks and tail base. A lot of excess hair came away, for a end of summer groom. You must be feeling fresher, Betty !

mr red

Here’s Siberian Forest Cat Red from Sandbach, Cheshire.

Here he is – looking smart – after we’d worked through his long, thick coat and had removed lumps, bumps and a zillion sticky bobs !

Where on earth do you find them all, Red ?

big boy hamish

Come and say Hi once again to Hamish !

You may remember Hamish, who lives with his family in Crewe, Cheshire. At 4 years old, this Maine Coon is one biggggg boy !

Hamish is such a gentle guy and he does loves a bit of sweet talk on the quiet. He wasn’t keen to get up onto the grooming table but as soon as his paws hit the deck he was laid out chilling and so relaxed. Very amenable to positioning and manipulation, Hamish obliged by offering the correct limb at the correct time.

Such a good boy !

pretty oscar

Oscar in Bury, Greater Manchester enjoyed his first professional groom with us recently.

Enjoyed ? Tolerated. We took away where we couldn’t comb and brushed out the rest. Oscar doesn’t like being groomed and the Session was a little fidgety. However, we know he was happy and chilling as soon as his little feet hit the floor !

He is a really sweet boy and looking forward to next time already, Oscar !

thank you

Thanks to Elsa in Stockport, Cheshire and mum Janice for these gorgeous flowers.

They have pride of place (high up, where the little ones can’t nibble at them !). Thank you so much !

fluffy tilley

Tilley was her usual delightful self when we called in to see her in Bolton, Greater Manchester again recently.

Well used to her Sessions – and always with such a good tale to tell ! – Tilley settled down on the grooming table straight away and let us work through her coat with no fuss.

We removed bits and bobs that shouldn’t have been there and we know she’ll be feeling lighter ! Nice seeing you again, Tilley !

Here’s the little lady, on her way back up to bed after the Session .
