Full Coat Groom (Bath & Blow Dry)
All grooming services include:
- Pre-bath combing
- Nail clipping
- Triple wash and rinse in water set at just the right temperature
- Calming post-bath double towel wrap
- Exclusive Purrfair® blow-drying experience
- Final comb out and de-shedding
- Saline eye clean and microfibre ear clean
- The highest quality shampoos, degreasers, facial scrubs and pre-treatment creams
Your cat's coat is thoroughly washed, brushed and dried to remove the build-up of dead coat, oils, odours, dandruff and saliva.
In addition to full coat grooming, you can choose the style of shaving that's right for you. Shaving styles you may consider:
Lion Clip (Shaving)
A lion clip is a full-body short shave with the exception of the head, mane and lower legs. You can choose to leave the tail unshaved, or as a pom-pom.
A lion shave is a 1.5mm short shave.
Comb Clip aka Teddy Bear Cut (Trimming)
A comb clip is a longer length shave over the whole body and is more suitable for winter. Unlike a lion clip which provides a short shave, the comb clip shave length is typically between 10mm and 22mm. The most popular comb clip lengths are 10mm and 13mm, and they suit year-round.
Asian Lion Cut aka The Bolero (Shaving)
This style leaves the fur in the front and midsection of the body and shaves the back legs and lower back area. This style addresses the problematic areas that are prone to frequent matting. It's particularly useful for older cats and some long-haired breeds.
Belly Shaving
This has become my most recommended style of shaving, particularly during the colder months, for cats who have recurring matting.
Most of the cats in my care are long-haired or purebreds with double coats who tend to experience matting more regularly than the average (although still beautiful) short haired breeds.
Belly shaving, combined with full coat grooming, leaves your cat looking beautiful and maintains a stunning coat while extending the time it takes for matting to recur.
Spot Shaving
The only safe way to remove matting that cannot be brushed out is to shave. We offer spot shaving to affected areas while maintaining the overall look and length. Often a solution for first-time clients or in rare instances where cats get into trouble in the garden, garage or kids' arts and crafts mishaps!
Paw trimming is also an option, leaving clean beans for better grip when they get the zoomies!
