“Duch is a 17 year old Persian cross with a long black & white coat. She had recently developed some very tight mats as her ability to groom herself had becoming more difficult. I was getting very anxious as the situation seemed to be getting worse. Duch is a very nervous cat and shakes and quivers the minute she is put in her basket. So I really didn’t want to put her through anything that would exacerbate the situation.
In walked Sandra- the life saver! She set up her grooming table, complete with gentle fan and soothing cat music and clippers that hardly made a sound and the next time I looked Duch was putty in her hands!! Sandra has such a calming gentle way of talking to the cats and immediately puts them at ease. It was incredible that Duch was so well behaved for two whole hours of steady grooming with the odd short rest in-between, if required. Sandra gave her a ‘comfort towel’ to lie on and cuddle and this took her mind off what was happening.
It was amazing and I don’t know why I worried!
If, like me, you feel very anxious of the whole ‘grooming thing’, then look no further than this excellent lady! Sandra of EssentiallyPurrfect is absolutely amazing and I would recommend her, without hesitation.
Grateful thanks Sandra from Gill and Duch – who, by the way, has a new lease of life. She has starting grooming herself again and looks so much happier.”
