Cat Grooming Services

We groom cats in a private room called the Kitty Korner so they have a quiet, stress-free environment while being groomed.

You may wonder why go through the trouble of grooming your cat when they’re so good at doing it themselves? Even though felines are masters of cleanliness, there are several reasons why they may need a little extra maintenance.

Indoor cats often require frequent nail trimmings for your sake as much as theirs. Claws are innate tools for felines, who use them for grip as well as for defense. Their natural inclination to sharpen their tiny claws can lead to expensive problems if you don’t trim them.

Your pet may also need baths to treat skin conditions or fleas, or frequent brushing to maintain their coat’s sheen and reduce shedding.

This is just a handful of reasons why you should take your cat to the Golden Paws on top of their regular grooming habits. A full grooming does more than help with hygiene and keeps Fluffy looking pretty.

It’s also good for your feline’s health. When you bring your cat for a full grooming session we can inspect for parasites, lumps, bumps, and other health issues. This includes handling fleas and ticks, dandruff, matted fur, dental hygiene, and proper trimming of their claws.

Basic Nail Care

Keeping your kitty’s nails trimmed is an essential part of cat care. We will trim up to the quick, which is the pink part of each claw that houses sensitive nerves and blood vessels.

Thorough Brushing and/or Trim or shave down due to mats.

You should brush your cat on a minimum of a weekly basis. If your cat has long hair, you may groom them more frequently. However, even if you do this at home it’s good to take your cat to a  Golen Paws at least once every 3 months.

We go above and beyond your regular brushing session. We tackle matted fur and knots and provide a trim to long-haired pets who need a bit of maintenance.

For example, some long-haired cats have a tendency to grow fur between their toes. This can aggravate your pet, lead to accumulated litter box debris, or even impact their traction. It’s important to let your groomer handle this task.

Many cat owners don’t realize that their pet actually has whiskers near the back of their legs and near their pads. We know how to navigate this area without impacting these important tactile hairs.

We will also keep an eye out for any signs of skin concerns, such as lumps, bumps, lesions, or missing patches of fur.

We Can Safely Give Your Cat a Bath

Most cats aren’t a fan of water. Just the threat of a bath can transform your docile little angel into an angry honey badger. Thankfully, we have the skills and expertise to give your feline a bath without hurting themselves or your pet. We also go the extra mile to create a low-stress environment and put your cat at ease.

Provide Ear Care 

Cats aren’t able to maintain their ear care well on their own. We will check the inner and outer ear to make sure it’s clean while making note of any:

• Bald Spots
• Redness
• Discharge
• Swelling
• Debris
• Odor
• Caked Ear Wax
• Bleeding

These are all signs that may require medical attention from a veterinarian.

Coupled together, these services help to provide your pet a refreshing grooming service that improves their hygiene while helping you keep an extra eye on their overall health.
