There are so many reasons why a Cat Groom is at a high rate:

• Cat Grooming is a specialised animal care field and should be treated as a specialty.
• Sedation and a shave at a vet is double, if not more, the cost of using a no-sedation cat groomer, (when really the risk is higher for the Cat Groomer)
• Cat Groomers are working with unpredictable domesticated tigers
• If a Groomer becomes bitten and it leads to infection, they are out of work for at least a week!
• Cats have nails, teeth and ninja moves, and they know this!
• Cats are sit-and-wait predators, and can launch at any time; we must learn to predict a cat’s movement with body language (such an important skill by continuing education such as my behaviour course 😉 )
• Clipping, especially without sedation, has a high risk of cutting a cat’s fine tissue-paper-like skin. It takes skills and precision. You cannot just pick up a pair of clippers!
• Have you seen the amount of shampoo (and water) it takes to bath a cat properly? Cats fur repels water and liquids, they don’t want to be clean.
• The amount of electricity used to get through a matted coat and dry a thick coat such as a Maine Coon. As much as grooming a large dog!
• and sharp, strong equipment. The number of pet owners who say they brought clippers and, after one clip, had to stop halfway because their clippers had blunted

A Cat Groomer is worth their weight in gold! Value your Cat Groomer. They risk it all for their love of Cats.
