How Purrs and Furr came about...
Hi, My name is Sonia and I have always loved cats! I never imagined that I would become a Professional Master Cat Groomer in my life! I was a hairdresser for 22 years running my own business, became a Mum and helped run a gym alongside my husband doing health and nutrition as well as a Holistic Therapy Room. So caring was always in everything I did and Cats have been my constant at home from the age of four. I moved to the North East 19 years ago and lasted 4 months without a cat and he is still alive and well about to touch the age of 19!
The big fluffy guy you see in the pictures is Mr Jinx, a character, very vocal with a timer for his stomach and thinks he’s James Bond, leaping off the landing 3 stories up! He keeps us amused as a family. However he had one trait not so favourable and that's the “Floof” as many call it. He leaves it where ever he lies, chairs, your clothes and up your nose if you get close enough...
So I started looking for a Professional Cat Groomer after somebody told me they existed! I struggled to find a Cat only salon where he’d feel safe and happy, he’s my Furr Baby and I couldn't bear the idea of leaving him anywhere. Long story short, I found my best option was a 3 day Cat workshop ran by Svetlana Broussova, a Russian Vet in London. I organised my family and off I did trot back to London where I was presented with a huge Persian male cat to begin learning handling and whispering techniques. Svetlana insists if you cannot do this part, you have no ability to understand the cat and he or she will not respond to you in the way you want him or her to.
I literally felt so relaxed and like I had been meant to do this. The 3 days flew, were tough as there was a lot to learn and that should have been that. However I wanted to know more, I wanted to not leave the cats! Svetlana is a woman of honesty and would tell me straight if I was not a natural but she said the opposite, that if I worked hard and completed the courses back to back to get maximum practice in she felt I could go to Master Cat Groomer. This is a level to deal with the most difficult cases including matting, shaving and Lion cuts.
