I learned pet grooming when I was in school at Becker College for Animal Care and Management. I quickly preferred grooming cats. I opened a cat boarding and grooming business in Whitman from 1997-2004 and thats when I did a lot of cat grooming. Having a grooming room, with good lighting and a quiet space for cats to relax makes most of the difference in grooming cats. When I started cat sitting I also offered some cat grooming for nail trims, brushings, ear cleanings. I don't do Lion Cuts in people's homes. I only trim small matts and do brushing and de-shedding, nail trims, ear cleanings and sometimes a shampoo. Shampoos are usually for senior cats that can't clean themselves easily or for accidents.
