AMERICAN CATS: THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE CUDDLY (Dir. Todd Bieber | US, 2024 | Documentary Feature) Cats are dubbed “the quiet royalty of the living room” in this fond, furry portrait. But they’ve got a gripe: The ongoing practice of surgical declawing, which these days is seldom practiced outside the US. Todd Bieber’s documentary examines both sides of a contentious veterinary issue. – West Coast Premiere

I love grooming Leo! In this video, I offer more than 30 tips for safe coat clipping. Leo, a Domestic Longhair cat, is transformed into the popular 'Lion Clip' style.

This is relatable. Cats are my kind of people! I love all the apathetic roommates I’ve been so very fortunate to share my home with over the years. Dogs are great, for sure. Cats are forever my passion. 😻

Many cats are fastidious about grooming, spending a significant amount of time and energy on their skin and coat care. Cats are naturally auto-(self) and allo(other cats)- groomers. Check out these helpful infographics from Catster.

When assisting with their coat maintenance, I recommend using a stainless steel comb, in addition to brushing. This can help locate and remove tangles and mats that may have formed throughout the coat, particularly along the sides and underbelly. Be sure to notice and respect your cat’s communication and preferences while grooming. It can be a wonderful way to bond with our feline friends.

Uh oh! 🙀 Bathing a cat is not an activity for the inexperienced. I can’t help but wonder what happened to this poor fella. Too bad he apparently didn’t know about holistic cat grooming. There are strategies, my friend, to keep everyone safe. I recommend Aunt Stacey’s Cats’ YouTube channel as one reference.

Have you ever attempted to give your cat a bath? How did it go?

Going all the way back to 2002 with this photo of me and Kinser, a big ole sweetheart Maine C**n kitty cat. He taught me all about how loving these 'gentle giants' can be. He was such a cuddly fellow. I'm the luckiest to have been his groomer.

💚 Compassionate, holistic care is our responsibility. I’m always grateful when clients understand the importance of doing what’s in the cat’s best interest. Trust is created through safety and respect.

This is what transparency and honesty looks like in the animal industry when we tell you to give your pet X and return on Y so we can safely work with them OR offer heavier sedation that moment so we can address the issue. Your pet is your companion and we do care about them and their emotional and physical wellbeing.
