Awe. You can see the tip of the tail showing his annoyance. He’s a pretty cat. I went to Petsmart with my 8.5 mth old Cocker Spaniel. He jumped so much, they stopped and called me to come get him. Yeah. He hates the brush and cutters. But you have the setup. I was debating doing it myself. I had my desk built like your table in my head. Haha! Yup. Time to get a better groomer.
