Do my grooming hours match your schedule?

Tuesday through Saturday, 8 to 3.

Closed on holidays, Sundays and Mondays.

* With an after-hour fee of $50, I may be able to visit in the early evening. For Sunday visits, there is a $100 fee.

Are conditions at home a good match for housecall grooming?

No vacuuming, renovations or sudden noises. Other pets placed in a separate room. Clean. Space on the kitchen counter to groom. Good water pressure in kitchen sink. Hot and cold water, plus sinks that drain. Okay with leftover fur? I tidy up, but there’s always a bit of fur floating around.

Rabies vaccination within past 2 years?

Rabies is fatal.☠️ Rabies is found in NY.

Kitty Can Tolerate Grooming?

If I see signs of high stress, I have to end the grooming session. Owners can consult their vet or a behaviorist for ways to help kitty feel comfortable with necessary grooming. This is how Spiffy Kitty Cat Grooming works.

There will be a travel/time fee charged if the grooming has to be stopped. Please be realistic about your cat’s stress/fear-reaction to grooming. Otherwise you’ll wind up with a fee and an ungroomed cat. Honesty is the key to successful grooming.

Just want advice?

Not ready to schedule? Not sure how your cat would react? General grooming questions? Basic behavior questions? Schedule a meeting for me to assess your cat and answer questions. $100 fee.

Fees- Prices – Cost

Housecalls are more expensive than salon grooming. If affordability is a priority, choose a salon or learn to do it yourself. If dealing with intense fear/aggressiveness is a priority, choose a sedated groom at a clinic. If avoiding travel/convenience is a priority, choose housecall.

Pawdicures $125

Grooming cost for other services depends on fur length, matting, last-minute booking, travel time, and behavior. For estimate, email full address, breed, goals, behavior/health, matted, etc.

Cancellation without 48 hours notice: $25

Deposit if travelling outside my normal area: $100

Ungroomable cat fee (behavior, hiding): $60

After the first visit, if both owner and groomer are satisfied, all long-hair or high-maintenance cats are put on a schedule in order to remain as clients. Schedules may be weekly, twice a month, monthly, or every two months. If owner is not interested in recurring visits, I suggest visiting a salon or veterinary clinic. I am not flexible about this.

Sanitary trims, pawpad fur trims, pawdicures and de-shedding brush-outs are popular. Baths are rarely given, unless cat calmly accepts them, or coat is greasy/dandruffy. Cats who react strongly must be successfully given prescribed calming meds.

I do not provide lion cuts, full shave-downs or all-over fur trims/haircuts, because my focus is full-coat maintenance.🦁 If your cat has more than one or two small mats, visit a cat groomer who specializes in mat removal. After that, schedule monthly maintenance grooming appointments with me.
