🥹🐾 MISSING SINCE JANUARY. FOUND INSIDE A HOME WITH 91 OTHER ANIMALS.

Linh Nguyen had lost hope of ever seeing her cat, Patchy, again. Seven months after he disappeared, a microchip revealed he was among the 80 cats and 12 dogs rescued from a Stuart home this week.

Deputies say at least five rescued animals have now been connected to their families—and more reunions could follow.

Why are cats’ purrs so relaxing? And why is getting a purr out of them after a grooming session a pique moment for me. It’s the official cat version of a 5 star yelp review that they would never actually write because they don’t want to tell the cats in the community and let them get their paws on me. But I promise, I treat each one like they’re my only bestie while we’re 1:1 together. This is what we’re working for.

Nikki’s mom Sue sent me this sweet picture of him while he’s away for the summer. I love that he’s thinking of me 😊 (I gave him that toy so obviously he’s reminiscing on our last visit together).

I love getting pictures of my babies in between visits, videos of their sillies, NAPPING PICTURES! Because who doesn’t love pictures and videos of cats just being cats?! 🐈

Thank you for thinking of me Sue! See you soon!!!

151 A Haddon Avenue, West Berlin, NJ.

This is where I started 26 years ago. A small building, a job as a bather, and a younger version of myself who had no idea how much the pets, clients, mentors, mistakes, successes, and lessons ahead would shape the groomer I would become.

Over the years, every salon I worked in, every seminar I attended, every cat that challenged me, and every relationship I built within the cat grooming specialist community helped refine not only my skills, but my beliefs about what grooming should be. Today, those 26 years have led me to an approach centered around patience, trust, communication, and long-term solutions instead of quick fixes. Two years into building a business around those values, one of the most rewarding parts has been watching cats experience grooming in a way they can actually learn to accept, and sometimes even enjoy. Looking back at that little building in West Berlin, I don’t think I could have imagined this is where the journey would lead.

Thankful to be able to step back at the Berlin 4th of July Parade today and remember where it all started.
