STEP AWAY FROM THE SCISSORS!! ![]()

So, you find a mat in your pets coat, you take to it with a brush, no luck, it’s not coming out, you decide to grab the scissors, you hold what you think is the skin to protect it and you cut above it, all of a sudden there’s blood, and there’s now an expensive vet trip! ![]()

Call your groomer, get them to sort your pets out. We will NEVER cut a mat out with scissors, we shave them out, it’s so much safer than using scissors. we have special equipment for things like mats.![]()

To stop this happening at all, you can brush and comb your pet to the skin every couple of days and book all your pets grooming appointments in well in advance with a professional groomer. ![]()

Here is a picture of Rafiki (cat) after his vet visit to receive 5 staples after he had a mat cut out of his very long hair with scissors by someone who he was boarding with. I unfortunately was the one to uncover the damage just a few days after the scissor incident when I was shaving him. He’s not the first, and this isn’t the worst scissor damage I’ve seen done before to a cat. So please, put the scissors down, save yourself an expensive vet trip and call a professional groomer, it’s our job to sort these issues out, so don’t be embarrassed if there is the odd matting on your cat or dog, we won’t judge you for it, it happens sometimes.
Wishing you all a very merry Christmas tomorrow. ![]()
