such a big guy
Evander from Rochdale, Greater Manchester anyone ?
At 9.2kg, this young Maine Coon is a true gentle giant. He is always reluctant to join us on the grooming table, but once there – even with all the meowing – he starts to chill.
In fact, he was in a real slumber during this session. It was only the local kids noisily playing outside which woke him. Then ? Yes ! The meowing began again !
Evander was certainly ready for his Session and boy, did he feel sleek and lighter afterwards.
A few days after the Session, mum Keela said
“It was that time of year again where Evander needed his summer groom and his trousers taken up ! As ever, Sandra gave Evander the 5* treatment, singing to him as she went along and he joined in too meowing away (that’s what I like to tell myself !!). He’s such a drama queen as Sandra showed me a video of him flat out enjoying himself ! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend EssentiallyPurrfect, the most gentle, considerate person you could ask for to look after your furbaby”
elegant eloise
Here’s Maine Coon Eloise from Hoghton, Lancashire. Who recognises Eloise ?
Eloise is aruond 3 years old and she likes nothing more than going out into the woods and getting her long coat full of twigs and all sorts. This, of course, doesn’t help keeping her mat free.
Today, we took her tummy short (as this is a difficult area for mum to keep on top of. Eloise isn’t keen on being combed there at all) and worked through the rest. Removing bits and bobs as necessary and thinning her out with a good brush out.
Although Eloise doesn’t look forward to her Sessions, she tolerated quite well today and was looking quite stunning a short while later.
what a bod
Persian Abu on The Wiral has the most thick coat going.
To make life easier for everyone concerned we keep 10 year old Abu’s coat short, as it’s so difficult to keep on top of with brushing.
What a good boy Abu was during his Session. Much less fidgety than previous sessions. In fact – we think he loved all the fuss and he knows that he always feels great afterwards.
Nice bod, Abu !
miss meascha
Maine Coon Meascha was her usual friendly, inquisitive self when we called in on her recently. Emmm … those bags are sooooo interesting !
Meascha’s coat was a little luggy around the armpits and chest with the rest of her coat just ready for a good brushing.
Nice session, Meascha !
how old ?
Buffy from Liverpool, Merseyside is 18 years old now.
She suffers from arthritis these days and doesn’t find her short coat quite as easy to manage as she used to.
We removed lots of tufts and mats from around Buffy’s body to make her more comfy – and we’ll be seeing her again in a few weeks time to keep on top of her maintenance.
Here’s Buffy resting after her session. What a star !
quite a duchess
We called in to see Persian cross Duch in Warrington, Cheshire as she was due her maintenance Session.
Although it’s only a few weeks since we last me up, Duch was definitely ready for our visit. At 19 years old, Duch isn’t as on top of her self grooming as she used to be.
A few lugs here and there needed to be removed, followed by a good brush out to make her lighter. Duch knows the score and although she’d rather be dozing the afternoon away, she let us get on with the job in hand. Nice seeing you again Duch !
tiger tigger
18 year old Tigger had a lot to say when we called in on her in Crewe, Cheshire recently.
Tigger never has been one for a fuss or petting – and doesn’t like to be groomed. Her long coat had become extremely pelted so there was no choice but to take large sections away for a fresh start – particularly underneath and around the rear quarters.
Tigger told and showed us in no uncertain terms that it wasn’t her idea of fun. However, a short time later she was feeling a whole lot comfier and cooler.
After the session, Tigger managed to top up her tum with a few treats then retreated to the bedroom for a kip. So pleased we were able to help you, Tigger.
dolly daydream
Persian cross Dolly from Carnforth, Lancashire was, as always, ready for her maintenance session recently.
A couple of lugs were removed here and there, and a bag full of dead hair came away during her brush out. Where does it all come from Dolly ?!
handsome olly
This young man is Olly from The Wirral.
Olly is around 8 years old and he’s quite a quiet guy. He is nervous of strangers, but soon relaxed into his Session.
Olly’s matted coat underneath was removed and then his remaining coat had a good brush through.
He was such a good boy and afterwards went straight out into the garden to chill. Does he look chilled to you ??!!
After the Session, mum Anita said
“Olly is a changed boy ! He literally bullied me into grooming him, when I started combing Stanley tonight. Long may it continue ..”. Fantastic to hear!!!!
mr marley
It was so nice to be able to meet up with 22 year old Marley in Blackpool, Lancashire.
Marley’s short coat had developed some mats and pelts, particularly on his sides and back. Mum had done really well removing some of the clumps, but a bit a help was needed.
We took the rest of the coat off Marley’s back for a fresh start and he was such a good boy. We continued by removing some tufts from the chest area and flanks.
Marley was soon feeling a whole lot comfier – oh, and he did enjoy the Session. All that fuss ! Purr purr – and that was before his after-session treat !
A few days later, mum Marie reported
“Just wanted to say thank you very much for sorting Marley cat out. He’s been a lot happier !! And is enjoying a yoghurt straw every day lol x”
