It's that time of year where adoptions slow down, donations stop, and the cats start flooding in. We took in 13 cats in the last 10 days with more coming in! Most of them are seniors who have lost their homes and are devastated.

Please consider helping with our ever-growing vet bills for these seniors: https://www.whiskerssanctuary.com/donate

Pictured: 1 year old Peanut, not a senior, and her adoption fee is already paid! Isn't she amazing!?

We are fully aware of the viral video that has been going around this past week about a local groomer here in Tucson, AZ demonstrating unacceptable treatment towards a dog at a grooming salon.

We’d like to remind all of our friends and clients that not every groomer is like this.

Kasee, our Certified Feline Master Groomer, joined Arizona Professional Groomers Guild in February of 2025, A non-profit focusing on education, community collaboration, and professional development, simply because groomers should be held to a professional standard especially in an unregulated industry.

Education, safety, and the well being of not only the animals in our care but groomers mental/emotional state are a top priority.

Therefore, we would like to invite every groomer to become a member of this non profit.

The Arizona Professional Groomers Guild was founded on a guiding principle of compassion and community. Compassion not only for one another, but for the animals entrusted to our care and for the humans who love them.

It is with a heavy heart that we formally acknowledge the deeply unacceptable behavior recently displayed by a groomer in Tucson, Arizona, who chose violence instead of choosing to step away.

There are many factors that can lead up to an event like this, but none of them excuse the outcome when it results in trauma, harm, or abuse. While this individual was not a member of the Arizona Professional Groomers Guild, we believe it is important, as representatives of professional groomers in Arizona, to speak up and remind pet owners that not all groomers are the same.

In an industry that remains nationally unregulated, many of us have made the choice to hold ourselves and one another to a higher standard. We pursue continuing education not only to improve our technical skills, but to strengthen our professional development, mental health awareness, communication, and accountability.

Members of the APGG are individuals who prioritize transparency, encourage growth, and actively work toward more compassionate, collaborative, and effective care for the pets in our service.

As always, the APGG chooses to lead through compassion centered education, because when we know better, we do better.

This moment serves as a reminder to everyone who works with animals to reevaluate their own burnout thresholds, anger and stress management tools, regulation skills, and the resources we have in place before stress turns into harm.

With this in mind, we would like to invite our local grooming community to a free therapy panel with Dr. Mandigo, a local psychologist with a specialty in mitigating high stress situations and relationships. Let us all seek ways to appropriately address anger and stress within our grooming industry.

Save the date: Friday, May 22nd.
Location and exact time TBD
This event will be recorded live for individuals to ask questions and participate.

Comment below if you would like to be notified when details for this panel event are announced, and if you have any questions for Dr. Mandigo. We will be compiling any questions in advance and providing them to her to answer during the panel.

Little girl MEOW was in a foster home but it didn't work out because she would do best as an only cat - no dogs, please! This 1yo loves children and LOVES to play. She will talk and purr and wants to be carried around.

Consider adopting Meow in !

Cat Parents — We Want Your Opinion

We’re considering expanding our services here at That Cat Groomer and we would love your feedback.

We are considering two grooming options:

🚐 Mobile Grooming – the same convenient service where we come to you.

🏡 Feline-Exclusive Salon – a quiet, low-stress grooming space just for cats (no dogs, no chaos) with a lower price point for those who prefer to bring their kitty in.

If both options were available, which would you consider?

🚐 Mobile – we come to you
🏡 Salon – you bring your cat (lower cost)

Meet Amadeus 💙

This handsome 1.5-year-old Maine C**n came in for a full groom with mat removal, leaving him looking and feeling much more comfortable.

Cats with thick coats like Amadeus can easily develop tangles and mats, and regular grooming helps keep their coat healthy and manageable.

Our full groom includes:
• Nail trim
• Weight check
• Eyes and ears cleaned
• A warm, gentle bath
• Careful drying
• Thorough deshed
• Final comb out

New clients: If you’re looking to schedule an appointment, please fill out a new client application on our website:

Massachusetts has officially become the fourth U.S. state to ban elective cat declawing, joining a growing number of states and cities moving to restrict the procedure. Under the new law, declawing will only be permitted when deemed medically necessary by a licensed veterinarian.

Animal welfare advocates say the measure reflects increasing awareness that declawing involves the amputation of part of a cat’s toe bone and can lead to chronic pain, mobility issues, and behavioral changes. Supporters argue the ban encourages humane alternatives such as regular nail trimming, protective nail caps, and providing appropriate scratching surfaces.

State leaders say the legislation is intended to strengthen animal protection standards while promoting responsible and compassionate pet care practices.
