Fees 💸
I will provide a more detailed estimate after I learn which services are needed. Pawdicure fee is $125. Dry grooms (no bath) usually $180 to $250. Baths usually $275 to $325. (Matting, fur length and handling challenges are reasons that fees would be on the higher end of the price range.) Catsitting is $50. Catsitting fee is pre-paid.
Non-refundable pre-paid booking fee of $60 required for grooming visits. The fee will be deducted from the total amount due when grooming session ends. Payment with cash, check, Zelle, Venmo and PayPal.
Services ✂️
Trim the rear fur for cleanliness, de-shedding to stop hairballs, shave pawpad fur for cleanliness, trim ruff under neck for cleanliness, shave one or two mats, wipe eyes if drippy and ears if greasy. Bath only if cat tolerates it.
Do’s ✅️ and Don’ts 🛑
I do not do lion cuts, full shave-downs or all-over fur trims/haircuts.
To calmly groom highly-resistant cats in a non-superficial way, owners may benefit from consultation with their veterinarian or a behaviorist. Treats, calming drugs or change of atmosphere could make grooming feasible.
