CAT OF THE WEEK

LA CH**TE BLANCHE

Beautiful kitty is loving her new toy!

Did you know Shelley grows her own catnip and every weekend sews catnip pouches ?

Not only is the catnip local, the pouches homemade but they are also sprayed with a locally made catnip spray made by one of Shelley's friends.

Every kitty that comes for a groom gets to go home with a toy!

Let's talk mats!

Mats can be caused by many different factors, from poor hygiene, to getting a little wet, or owners not realizing they are only brushing the surface of the hair and not getting to the skin.

Generally they start off as little snags or knots in the coat, this can happen with almost any length of hair. We can brush these out.

If these little knots and tangles are left, they will start to slowly tighten, causing the mat to get larger and larger.

As a mat grows it starts pulling at the skin of the cat ,it gets so tight it causes pain and starts to tear from the cats skin leaving bruised , painful damaged skin.For these Mats we may have to spot shave, as it's too painful for the cat to be brushed out.

Some cats are so matted they actually feel as if there is no mat because of how hard and large they can get.This is what we call "Pelted ", only shaving can remove this painful condition.

A cat with large mats or pelting will be sensitive to touch the first couple days after removal, but they will be great full and will start to heal.

A matted cat will not have a picture perfect haircut due to the way the hair is pulling out but the hair will grow back and the cat will be happier.

Picture is of a Pelted cat, you can see the red irritated skin, the places where the hair was pulling out.

If your cat has mats of any kind bring them to us and we will get them on the road to feeling better the gentlest way possible.

Does your cat have flaking dry skin?
Many cats end up with a little dandruff from weather or irregular brushing where the dry skin is just unable to loosen and get away from around the hair follicle .
We suggest a good metal comb that gets right down to the skin, as slicker brushes basically just work on the surface.

If your cat is having a larger amount of dandruff, we suggest fish oil, coconut oil ,a drip of olive oil or sardines a couple times a week.

For major dandruff we always suggest a visit to your vet to see if something more serious is going on such as allergies , mites or autoimmune issues.

The kitty in the picture has minimal dandruff.

Sphinx you say?

Since we talked about bathing we MUST mention we also have Sphinx clients and always wanting more of these hairless beauties!

Sphinx care is as unique as they are!

Generally Sphinx need full on water baths every 3 weeks.The reason for this is that they lack fur that would normally soak up the oil and sweat that cats produce.
You will notice on Sphinx they have wrinkles and when their oils and sweat buildup they will get yellow creases in their wrinkles.

It is important to keep your Sphinx clean not only to prevent the oils from getting on household fabrics and surfaces but to keep your cat healthy.
Sphinx are very suseptible to acne that can become infected and cause health issues.
Generally you will see acne starting on the chin,mouth and tail when it first starts.

Along with skin health , nail care is very important, without hair there is a build up of debris of all sorts from kitty litter,dirt,bodily fluids,oil,sweat and anything else their paws get into.
If this isn't cleaned often it will harden and be very hard to remove and will irritate your cats feet and attitude when it is being cleaned.

Nails should be clipped weekly with no longer then 3 weeks between clipping.

Ears! Cat ears keep clean with the help of their hair and of course Sphinx do not have that luxury so it is upto us to make sure they are kept clean.
Ears should be cleaned weekly.

Last but not least, the bum,paw pads and some other spots can get dry so it is important to use a cat safe balm, or Vaseline on these areas to keep them healthy from getting chapped.

We include nail clipping and ear cleaning for free with the purchase of any other service.

We adore our hairless friends.

When to bath?

When cats are being groomed it's generally a leave in cat specific safe shampoo that is done after a lioncut or Mohawk cut or after a brush out.
This helps remove left over loose hairs and dander to an extent. This service comes with the groom.

However there are times when a cat needs a traditional bath, with warm water and a very good cat specific wash out shampoo.

Circumstances for this need vary.

Getting into substances the cat can not or should not remove themselves is the top reason, along with the cat being overwhelmed by the sheer mess of it the amount of dirt.

We have bathed cats for many reasons such as house fires, the cat has been missing and returned with the need,cats from unsanitary conditions, or cats whose curiosity got the better of them.

Another reason for bathing is allergies that the cat has, skin conditions , or obese / disabled cats that can not clean themselves properly.

There can be many reasons a cat needs a wet bath however we do not recommend one unless there is a reason for it.

Cats are very good at maintaining a clean coat.

Remember that nail trims and ear cleaning are included with a bath!

Don't feel like a lion cut is right for you?

How about a Mohawk with a roundneck?We can also do a V-Neck if your kitty likes a mane.

Roundneck means the cats head looks for circular, and is generally seen more on short haired breeds.

V-Neck is where the cat looks like they have a nice full mane ,generally seen on medium to long haired breeds

The cut in the pictures are both round neck Mohawk cuts , you can leave the tail full or can have it cut with a pom at the tip!

Remember nail trims and ear cleaning is included with this service!
