Chloe here: Today I met lovely Walter. He was rather knotted on his tummy and it needed to be fully shaved to remove them. Throughout the tummy shave Walter was such a good boy and let me get everything off easily, afterwards I checked through the fur on the top and sides with both of the combs. The fur had no knots so it was easier to brush through and he was very happy to help groom himself while I combed. To finish I trimmed his nails and cleaned his eyes and ears.

We are completely closed on Saturday and Sunday (5th and 6th) as both Katie and Sarah are away and any messages will be replied to on Monday the 7th.

I am off now for a couple of weeks, from the 5th and will be back working on the 25th of April, as I am going on holiday to Egypt. This is my first abroad holiday in nearly 15 years, I'm so excited to go and enjoy some time away in the sun.

Chloe here: Today I saw beautiful Cilla. I gave her a check over with both the coarse comb and moulting comb to help remove shedding fur and check for any knots on her back, sides and tummy. Luckily she didn't have any knots and her fur was in really nice condition. Her human helped hold her for her sanitary trim as she isn't a fan of me trimming back there and I trimmed the fluff off the bottom of her paws as she has been having a problem with skidding in the house.

Afterwards I gave her some Valerian Root which she loves, today she decided that she would eat it straight away.

Something a little different today. I present this funny looking cat 😂 ok it’s an owl really 🦉 I was fortunate enough to visit The Owls Trust over in North Wales Llandudno recently and took my fancy camera. They are a small charity taking in rescued and injured birds of prey as well as having an educational side. Lastly they also help maintain breeding stocks of some very rare owls.

You can visit for free most days (check their website for times) and just leave a donation. The staff/volunteers are very knowledgable and happy to answer questions and you can even touch an owl or two if you’re very lucky (I was!). A great place for all ages if you have an hour to spare.

Katie - I do love working with the older cats especially ones who are dealing with health issues. It’s the main reason I got into this work, to help cats feel more comfortable and live their best lives. Puss here can be a little cranky but has learned quickly that I’m not here to hurt her or be mean. She always feels like a kitten again after I remove all her knots and brush out all that trapped undercoat. Now she won’t get so many fur balls, will be able to move more easily, groom herself and feel lighter, less itchy and be better able to regulate her temperature too.

Having her relax in my lap after her initial distrust is just the most wonderful thing. She stayed for fusses for a while after I was done too before trotting off to check on her humans 💜

28/03/2025

Chloe here: Today I saw gorgeous Koda. He had some knots on his chest that needed shaving off so I used the small white clippers to remove them. He was a little bit wiggly but after letting him settle he let me take them off with little fuss. Afterwards I trimmed his claws and gave him and his brother some Valerian Root which they absolutely loved.

I know tattoos aren’t for everyone but I’d like to share my new tattoo that I had done at thedevilsclubuk by sophieviolettattoo on Monday. I wanted something that would immortalise Eris forever on my skin but that also represented all the cats I’ve loved and will love.

It’s a tattoo for me and is placed under my collar bone on the left where she would sleep and curl up for cuddles. It’s also near my heart and I had some of her ashes mixed in with the ink.

I wanted something that showed the beautiful markings on her face and her ginger nose. Her mother was a tortishell and you can see the orange in Eris that she inherited from her. I am so impressed with the level of detail Sophie managed to incorporate and so glad I found her work. She’s done a few pet portraits now and if this is your thing I highly recommend her.

Chloe here: Today I met gorgeous Pepper. She's a really fluffy cat but thanks to daily brushing from her human she was knot free and when I combed her with both combs there wasn't much fur shedding off her either. I gave her a sanitary trim to help keep her fluffy bottom clean which she was not pleased about at all and trimmed her claws for her. She wasn't impressed with me after she was done and went and sat under the radiator before I let her out of the bathroom.

21/03/2025

Chloe here: I saw little Daisy today. She's an older girl that needed some help with combing out her shedding fur to prevent knots. I used both the coarse comb and moulting comb to check through her fur on her back and sides before moving to check underneath. As she is an older cat I made sure to be a lot gentler around her back legs and when it came time to give her a sanitary trim I sat her on my lap so that it took the pressure off her back legs. She was such a good girl throughout and once she was done she was given some treats and let outside.

Merlin enjoys his skin-care routine. It not only keeps him looking dapper but it helps prevent a build up of oil, dirt and any nasty bacteria on his skin.

Our ear and eye wash is available to purchase through our online shop for £7.50 plus P&P

This is a great example showing the problem with matted fur. The before picture shows Luna looking beautiful. Her fur is gorgeous and looks healthy. That is until you touch it…

Beneath the top brushed part unfortunately it is matted at skin level and needed to be completely shaved off 😔 you can see the in progress photo showing it all coming away in strips and then after pictures of the large sections that came off in one go.

This gorgeous cat has been brushed regularly just not with the right technique sadly. This is why we can’t give prices from just looking at a cat’s fur and we are happy to advise on combs/brushes and tips when we visit so you can do the best job possible between visits.

18/03/2025

Chloe here: I saw gorgeous Snowy today. He's a cat that has rather thick fur and it feels like cotton wool which means it is more likely to knot faster as it tends to stick together more than other types of fur. I gave him a really good brush to help remove the fur that he was shedding, he had some knots on his back legs and on his tummy that needed to taken off using the clippers as they were very tight. I gave him a sanitary trim to help him keep his fluffy bum clean and trimmed his claws.

It must be spring as Tristan has started shouting by the front door for his morning walkies in his favourite harness. As soon as I get his harness down he starts purring. My other cats have never been bothered, but every year as soon as it gets warmer and lighter he is ready and waiting. I swear he is a dog in a cat’s body and has always answered to Puppy as well as Tristan.

He doesn’t like to go far and often stays in the front garden. He’s not a fan of people on the street but if it’s nice and quiet he ventures a bit further and explores the bottom of the close I live in. Is your cat harness trained or have any funny little habits now it’s warmer out?

Chloe here: I saw lovely Mae this week for her groom. She had a couple of knots underneath in her armpits that needed the clippers to remove them. I gave her a thorough comb with both the coarse and moulting comb to help remove the fur she was shedding, gave her a sanitary trim to help keep her fluffy back end clean and trimmed her nails. Afterwards she went and sat on a table with some flowers behind her so I couldn't help but take a picture!

Just how adorable is Finn 💜 I’ve groomed him a couple of times now and he just purrs the entire time. He gets tangles in the usual spots (armpits, chest and tummy) plus his bottom needed a good tidy up. He’s a wiggle monster and I let him move as he needs to as long as he stays on the table. At the salon he gets a great view of the birds and squirrels in the back garden which keeps him (mostly) entertained 👍🏻 . . . #cat #cats #catsofinstagram #catstagram #catgroomer #catgroomers #catgrooming #catgroomersofinstagram #catbehaviour #catbehaviourist #felineholistictherapist #thekatlady #catgroomersuk #catlovers #mobilecatgroomer #liverpoolcatgroomer #liverpoolcats #liverpool #wirral #warrington #cheshire #merseyside #ormskirk #wigan #preston #sthelens #holisticcatgroomer #holisticcatgrooming #felinetherapist

Luna would like to remind everyone it’s definitely shedding season and even your short haired cats can need some help grooming. She sometimes tells her humans she doesn’t like being groomed but I think it’s just to get extra fusses as she loves it really. I’m assured this is her happy meow/squeak too and now her humans know her tricks 😂💜 . . . #cat #cats #catsofinstagram #catstagram #catgroomer #catgroomers #catgrooming #catgroomersofinstagram #catbehaviour #catbehaviourist #felineholistictherapist #thekatlady #catgroomersuk #catlovers #mobilecatgroomer #liverpoolcatgroomer #liverpoolcats #liverpool #wirral #warrington #cheshire #merseyside #ormskirk #wigan #preston #sthelens #holisticcatgroomer #holisticcatgrooming #felinetherapist

Old man cat Harley needed a tidy up around his face and bottom where he is struggling the most. I loved watching him play with some catnip after our session 💜 so beautiful watching the older cats with health issues still being able to enjoy themselves and be a cat 🐈‍⬛ . . . #cat #cats #catsofinstagram #catstagram #catgroomer #catgroomers #catgrooming #catgroomersofinstagram #catbehaviour #catbehaviourist #felineholistictherapist #thekatlady #catgroomersuk #catlovers #mobilecatgroomer #liverpoolcatgroomer #liverpoolcats #liverpool #wirral #warrington #cheshire #merseyside #ormskirk #wigan #preston #sthelens #holisticcatgroomer #holisticcatgrooming #felinetherapist

Well that was super exciting! We only went and won didn’t we 💜🐈‍⬛ It meant so much to be a finalist and to win was just the icing on the cake. Being a cat groomer that focuses on welfare rather than beauty and not working to show cat guidelines I always keep my head down and don’t expect recognition within the industry. Our focus is always what’s going to be the best for the cat and we work with a lot of elderly and anxious cats where we have to start with slow introductions or fix a problem like matting or ingrown claws etc. Our approach is to get the priority done and then see what the cat will let us do after that. To try and get them to understand we are here to help them be happier and more comfortable but it often takes time and a lot of patience. This award means so much to me and the team and we will keep working to our ethical standards and always do what we can to help the cats in our care and their humans who are often having a rough time too. . . . #cat #cats #catsofinstagram #catstagram #catgroomer #catgroomers #catgrooming #catgroomersofinstagram #catbehaviour #catbehaviourist #felineholistictherapist #thekatlady #catgroomersuk #catlovers #mobilecatgroomer #liverpoolcatgroomer #liverpoolcats #liverpool #wirral #warrington #cheshire #merseyside #ormskirk #wigan #preston #sthelens #holisticcatgroomer #holisticcatgrooming #felinetherapist #awardwinning

Kittens! All microchipped and 3 of the 4 have homes to go to. I’ve microchipped all the other cats in the house previously. It’s lovely working with a super responsible breeder although I’ll always love the rescues too 💜 . . . #cat #cats #catsofinstagram #catstagram #catgroomer #catgroomers #catgrooming #catgroomersofinstagram #catbehaviour #catbehaviourist #felineholistictherapist #thekatlady #catgroomersuk #catlovers #mobilecatgroomer #liverpoolcatgroomer #liverpoolcats #liverpool #wirral #warrington #cheshire #merseyside #ormskirk #wigan #preston #sthelens #holisticcatgroomer #holisticcatgrooming #felinetherapist #microchipyourcat

Vienna is an older cat who is prone to knots round her sides and tummy in particular. I’ve groomed her quite a few times now and she knows me well. Today she selected calendula after I removed all her knots, gave her a good brush and many fusses. You can see her loving the herb and getting herself covered in the bright petals! Calendula is good for inflammation as well as being a general mood lifter. I always call it the sunshine herb as it’s commonly known as English Marigold ☀️ . . #cat #cats #catsofinstagram #catstagram #catgroomer #catgroomers #catgrooming #catgroomersofinstagram #catbehaviour #catbehaviourist #felineholistictherapist #thekatlady #catgroomersuk #catlovers #mobilecatgroomer #liverpoolcatgroomer #liverpoolcats #liverpool #wirral #warrington #cheshire #merseyside #ormskirk #wigan #preston #sthelens #holisticcatgroomer #holisticcatgrooming #felinetherapist

Oh it’s good to be back after a much needed week off. What better way to start my week than with Bertie who was so happy during his grooming today that he fell asleep 🥰 he made a little pillow with a paw and just dozed off snoring quietly. We combed so much fluff from him today it was definitely needed. Seems shedding season is well underway! . . . #cat #cats #catsofinstagram #catstagram #catgroomer #catgroomers #catgrooming #catgroomersofinstagram #catbehaviour #catbehaviourist #felineholistictherapist #thekatlady #catgroomersuk #catlovers #mobilecatgroomer #liverpoolcatgroomer #liverpoolcats #liverpool #wirral #warrington #cheshire #merseyside #ormskirk #wigan #preston #sthelens #holisticcatgroomer #holisticcatgrooming #felinetherapist

We had the lovely Frank visit us at the salon today. He was the second cat today whose guardians have been really struggling to rid them of fleas. A couple of the main spot on treatments haven’t been working as well as fleas have developed resistance to them making it extra difficult to exterminate them. We gave him a nice warm bath with an all natural non animal tested shampoo to see if this can help solve the problem. The shampoo contains Neem which is a natural flea killer. Frank was such a sweet boy especially having never been to a cat groomer before. Hopefully this will do the trick and will have soothed his bitten skin and removed all the nasty flea dirt too 🤞🏻 . . . #cat #cats #catsofinstagram #catstagram #catgroomer #catgroomers #catgrooming #catgroomersofinstagram #catbehaviour #catbehaviourist #felineholistictherapist #thekatlady #catgroomersuk #catlovers #mobilecatgroomer #liverpoolcatgroomer #liverpoolcats #liverpool #wirral #warrington #cheshire #merseyside #ormskirk #wigan #preston #sthelens #holisticcatgroomer #holisticcatgrooming #felinetherapist #fleas

Never any judgement here just fyi. Kiko’s family went away for 4 weeks and came back to a completely pelted kitty. She’s only tiny bless her. She has one big giant knot basically with these bits under her chin and down both sides being the worst that they came off in massive chunks. They noticed as soon as they got home that her head looked different and she wasn’t her usually playful self so I went as soon as I could to see her. Since I left she’s been much more cuddly and back to bouncing around the house already 💜 It’s tricky if you’re away for a while and you have a cat whose fur needs extra care and attention. If you can do consider having them groomed before you leave to make it easier for those looking after them in your absence. Obviously no one looks after your cat as well as you do of course 🥰 . . . #cat #cats #catsofinstagram #catstagram #catgroomer #catgroomers #catgrooming #catgroomersofinstagram #catbehaviour #catbehaviourist #felineholistictherapist #thekatlady #catgroomersuk #catlovers #mobilecatgroomer #liverpoolcatgroomer #liverpoolcats #liverpool #wirral #warrington #cheshire #merseyside #ormskirk #wigan #preston #sthelens #holisticcatgroomer #holisticcatgrooming #felinetherapist

About Me

For as long as I can remember I’ve wanted to work with animals, specifically cats. I was brought up in a household with cats and have always felt a special affinity with them and am lucky to have four in my life at the moment. As a teenager I worked in a veterinary practice and spent a summer at Knowsley Safari Park while in sixth form as my childhood dream was to be a vet. I loved the work, but found the sadder aspects more difficult so decided to do my degree in Biochemistry and Neurobiology instead, for which I gained a 2:1. Around 2014 I became quite sick and had to stop working altogether to concentrate on my own health and wellbeing which gave me a chance to really think about what I wanted to do with the rest of my life.

I eased back into work as a cat sitter for The Cat Sit Company (a lot more demanding than I expected!) and dared to dream that I may be able to work with cats as a career after all.... I found that by looking after a range of different breeds, types and ages of cats and engaging with their owners, I became really interested in cat wellness and grooming which is what led me to researching cat grooming as a potential career. It seemed so right for me to study and I’m so excited to finally be doing my dream job. Alongside grooming I’m also studying an advanced diploma in Feline Behaviour to further understand and work with these adorably fascinating creatures. The wellbeing and health of cats will always be a priority and a passion for me and now I am ready to make this my life.

Who knew that ill health could lead to such a complete change happening in my life and that this would turn out in such a positive way, where I get to do what truly makes me happy!
