@violetgalaxy9524 the biggest of mads!!! Thankfully it only lasted until dad got there. Poor kiddo was just so scared without him. 🥺

@@nyanbinary1717 it's not super often, but it definitely happens from time to time. 🩵

@chriscote3701 Thank you, we try and give them all of us to them in the few moments we get to spend with them.

@laurendaryani4893 yes, we've gotten reports from several volunteers at the shelter that need so much more snuggly and receptive to being pet. He's got to be feeling much better. 😻

@clancycreations Yhank you, that's exactly the combo we are shooting for with this content. A splash of education with a whole lot of love. ❤️ 😍

@@15puzzleee puurrrrrfect!! We are happy to have you come along for the kitty content!! 😻

@@hesterkarr1136 absolutely 💯 !!

@@15puzzleee we try really hard here! Thank you so much.

@cutieloopheh he does! He was such a good boy too!! 😻

If you are using a guard (similar to the types that are typically used in men’s hair cuts) then no, it won’t hurt them. But if you’re not using a guard, it is easily possible to hurt the cat’s skin if you’re not extremely careful or if they are moving around.

@ruthie_rosario thanks

Some cats do really poorly for owner grooming just because it's their owner! Not because the owner is doing anything wrong. We applaud you for trying anyway! Sometimes those same kitties will do great for a well trained cat groomer (not just any groomer though, someone who's cat specifically trained). Of course we are super grateful to our vets who help when there's not any trained cat groomers local to you. Have you tried looking up a CFMG (certified feline master groomer) where you are? We wrote this article about finding a cat groomer, or at least learning how to spot a good cat groomer in the bunches of groomers out there. It does also include links to a map to find a CFMG local to you, we wish you all the best and hopefully you can find a cat expert near you too! www.whiskersinames.com/how-to-select-a-cat-groomer

always..... Stay kind yourself, thanks for watching!

I know it's a little thing, but I'm hoping kindness can just keep going. And the more we share moments like this, the more it normalizes kindness throughout our days. Thank you for watching.

Thank you, we try so hard with each baby that comes in.

she really was! She ended up going to a fantastic home.

Hi there, we are so sorry for missing this comment! We use a Ramoni clipper vac with our Wahl Bravura clippers, and we use the stainless steel attachments (not the plastic ones) for this trim. The suction is what makes all the difference on the finish though! Well that and a solid degreasing bath and thorough blow dry to prep the coat. That said our attachments kind of range anywhere from 1/4"- 3/4" depending on coat and what looks good for the coat thickness. In generally the looser the coat the shorter we can go and it still looks good, the tighter the coat the longer we can go and keep that nice look to it. We have several still images up close on our facebook/instagram accounts and we will be filming a new series specifically on these trims so stay tuned. ;) facebook.com/photo/?fbid=891856659396900&set=a.557096976206205

we think so too! Gorgeous colors on this girl!

We are huge advocators for gentle grooming and feel scruffing needs to be used with extreme caution. I personally only use it when it's a very appropriate setting only (ie emergency holds and safety holds only). I so rarely use it, it just builds trust with kitty and me and I find we have a better working relationship together! And yes, it takes a lot of training to go solo but I find it makes you really challenge those holds and handling techniques to really assess what's best for kitty in those moments. Thank you for the compliments it means a lot to get feedback from fellow groomers!

Thank you, our pets are the world to us and I couldn't imagine not knowing what happened to my baby, let alone someone else having to sit in that.

He really did! He was such a good boy and we worked with him for many years. He is no longer a client, I think he was rehomed out of state or out of are immediate service area, if I recall correctly. But he was a pretty amazing kitty... a huge hugger!

Thank you, we believe every kitty deserves kindness. =^_^= The Sweet Whiskers Team

Thank you, Sasha is a good girl! I'm sure she'll tell mom with lots of extra head butts and tell her all about it! =^_^= The Sweet Whiskers Team

Thank you for the compliment. =^_^=

Typically the hair grows about a half an inch per month. She's actually already come back in and you can see in the still photo chosen for the thumbnail her hair after just 8 weeks and it measured just over an inch. The tail is what takes the longest to come back to it's full glory... and can sometimes take up to a full year to regrow in well. Great question.

😊thank you so much

We agree she is a complete doll! One of the sweetest kitties we've seen come through in a while! =^_^=

you are very welcome.

Hi there, sorry I seemed to have missed this comment! Thank you, I tried to be thorough. I hope you had great success!

I am so sorry I didn't respond to this, I don't know why I didn't see this. If you just put them on, you can do the same thing. If the glue is still wet that's even better as you can just slip them off and clean the paw immediately so the skin or fur doesn't get stuck to it. But if the glue has hardened, just treat it the same way as if it's been on there and it's ready to come off at the end of the growth cycle, follow the same steps shown here.

Maybe you can try to use shampoo which contain BENZOYL PEROXIDE for your cat/dog

@@pipithakolbjorn3998 Thanks for the reply but I used benzyl peroxide shampoo but no result....so is there any thing ....

@@kiruthigarafiq You're welcome. Doctor told me that i can try SHEBORRHEA shampoo or ANTIBACTERIAL/ANTIFUNGAL Shampoo.. Some people suggest me to use Dishwasher liquid 🤦because they've ever tried and it works well. But, i don't wanna use dishwasher liquid for my pet, TBH 🤷 no matter how good it works

@@pipithakolbjorn3998 thanks for ur kind reply...

Jude & Jerry, we use Chubbs bars as a shampoo here in our salon and also recommend it for at home bathing as well. It is an organic shampoo bar that was specifically created for cat's. But most importantly it is an amazing de-greaser, which is cutting the problem your specifically trying to solve. A lot of vets will recommend an antibacterial or antifungal shampoo with a 10min soak time. We have found that this is a very common recommendation in some area's of the country, but not always effective Or the lack of pet parent follow up makes this hard for it to be succussful. Not that it can't work, but it needs to be done very frequently and most people simply don't have the time to do so. We absolutley NEVER recommend dishwashing liquid, it is very very drying to the skin and causes more damage than help in our professional opinion. At home cleansing on a cotton ball is a simple straight forward easy task, most owners can do consistantly- so this is what we see as the MOST effective tool for pet parents, coupled with switching out food bowls/water bowls for either stainless steel or cermaic, but avoiding plastic. Those two switches/aids help the most when combating this with your own feline.
