- We recommend doing pre-bath shaving to get the bulk of the hair off and then doing a finish shave after the bath and blow dry. Watch NCGI's Danelle German do this feisty cat's pre-bath sanitary trim in under 2 minutes! And wait till you see what he does when he's on the table!
This takes three people at my house to subdue the cat, but we get it done. thanks for the helpful tutorial!
Impressive...this is the one step of grooming my cat I have not yet mastered. He goes ballistic the moment I turn on the trimmer
Maybe try turning on the trimmer before bringing her or him into the room so she or he doesnt get the initial scare of the noise starting, might not help much but its worth a try
@@juwairiyahummabdullah I have tried and it has, indeed, not helped much. But thank you
@@joshuamooney4509 What kind of trimmer are you using? I found that investing in something cordless that makes as little noise as possible freaks my timid cat out the least amount possible. Also try turning on the trimmer and just resting it close to your cat while giving them some pets or treats. Once they seem unfazed by the trimmer in their environment, try using it on your cat from there. I'm no professional but have a cat who used to be feral and is afraid of EVERYTHING and this helped her.
My cat goes into panic mode when I even lift his tail to look 😫
If I used those on my cat I wouldn't have a arm left
Your cat sits still. Mine would claw me to death and definitely not sit still
Mine too 😀💔
I do it when mine just woke up.. perfect and be fast
Well that's how you know you're doing it wrong.
@@CityPriestess Where is your grooming business at Ms Professional Know It All Cat Groomer? Do you know anything about my cat? Where she comes from? What she’s went through? NO! You don’t. Instead of coming online and being negative to people why don’t you go spend time with your family? Or your cat?
Have to clip their weapons before this; then you just have to worry about the teeth (or use a cone)
Where I live, we call this a "buttzilian."
🤣
You did perfectly Great with a cat like that There's no way that cat was calm I saw it was trying to attack. So more likes and props to you for having full control You're so good at what you do. Outstanding work
such a well behaved kitty
Lol my cat looks exactly like this . Wish I had a ball cone thing
Amazon sells them
How do you keep from nicking the cat's skin? My vet told me you need to be very careful to not go too close because cat's skin can get nicked very easily.
Hey Justin! Your vet is correct, cat skin can be easily nicked if shaving while not using proper technique. The skin needs to be flat and taut, so the clipper glides over it smoothly (without catching any wrinkles). We also only recommend a #10 blade as the safest for shaving cat hair, our favorite clipper for this is the Wahl Bravura on the #10 blade setting.
Since people shave too, if you ever try it yourself you may find that it’s very intuitive and you already know how to avoid nicking. I just gave my cat a whole lion cut last night, first time ever shaving a cat and it wasn’t TOO difficult! No nicks! I was a bit worried in the armpit areas but as long as I stretched kitty’s arms alllllll the way out, it was OK! And yes keep the blade on the most protective setting possible the whole time!
I bought the same Wahl blade she’s using in this video. Except mine is pink 😁 My cat LOVES me, and will let me do whatever grooming on her myself. Shes a mamas girl…. But she has bad separation anxiety when she’s away from me. She’s not comfortable in new spaces without me (like a groomers) So now we can do it at home together, it’s much nicer for everyone!
Oh and be careful on the tummy too. That’s the only time my cat started getting wiggly lol. She wanted to bite and kick the shear like it was a kicker toy 🤣
poor baby, thankyou for this!
Is there a way to avoid the little nipples on their belly? I've unfortunately gotten 2 cats nipples (only one, and always the very bottom right one ) even after trying different positions/angles. I use the same type of clippers. Do I need a new blade? It doesn't typically snag on things. Or do you recommend a different type of clippers/cutting tool when encountering cats with more visible/prominent nipples?
Hey! Nipples can be a bit tricky. Typically I use less pressure to skim the hair off so I can see them clearly. Then I can have an easier time shaving around them instead of directly overly them. Hope that helps!
That was hardcore... 😳
That's one pissed kitty lol
Okay well can you make a video on a cat that isn’t calm?? Like this isn’t helpful at all unless you’re part of the 1% of people with calm cats that’ll let you do this.
Thanks for commenting! We've found that keeping a cat calm during the grooming process comes more from the cat groomer's actions then of the cat being inherently calm already. Trust me, there would be no way to have a cat only grooming salon, running full time with multiple groomers, if we didn't see cats of all temperaments and personalities every day. Make sure to check out our video 10 Tips for Twisty cats to help you with any kitties you are struggling with!
@@NationalCatGroomers well that's a nice way to dodge a good question.
@@rangergreen1935 you're a dumbass, that cat wasn't that calm
Am I watching a different video? That cat was clearly trying to scrap.
It comes down to the way you handle the cat. If you have the guard on to prevent then from biting, it’s much easier to maintain control. Look at the way she positioned herself in relation to the cat. She established control over its ability to move, which made it seem like the cat was calm, but it’s something you have to learn to do or figure out so the experience is quick and safe for both of you. Just practice with the clippers off first to make sure the cat can’t make sudden movements while getting clipped.
Oh they are definitely going to have to sedate my Chichi😾
I wanna see a cat that’s like hell no Ma’am
Hey Caroline! We have a number of additional videos as part of our Grooming the Aggressive Cat online course and Complete Cat Groomer Training Syllabus. www.nationalcatgroomers.com/shop
I saw it go after her on table lol
how necessary is it to do that between the legs area on a female cat?
Not necessary on a female cat. You just need to do the rear.
@@carpediem7654thank you!!
What if male cat? Can we trim testis fur too? Pee stain always at the balls after pee
I like this video.
What's the name of the trimmers you are using? Are they Oster?
They're Wahl Bravuras on a #10 setting
What happens if that area doesn't get shaved? Does it get filled with poop stains?
Yes, the sanitary trim is designed to remove and prevent cleanliness issues when they use the litter box.
If this is how they handled my cat then no wonder she’s terrified every time the clippers are switched on.
There's a big difference between a cat being afraid of something they've never been introduced to and preferring not to be touched and handled in a specific way. Most cats do very well with calm, confident handling that takes their preferences and temperament into consideration, while also relieving painful areas or performing grooming services designed to prevent them from happening. I'm sorry to hear your cat hasn't been introduced to clippers (or to new experiences) appropriately. A trained, Certified Feline Master Groomer will best know how to approach grooming a cat with previous bad or non-existent experiences.
What’s the thing on the cats head called ? I need one
Looks like some sort of E collar
It's called an Air Muzzle, they're made by a veterinary supply company called Smart Practice.
would one of those cat grooming hammocks be easier?
Unless it has an opening specifically in the sanitary area, those are only helpful when doing nails/pawpads, or butt area. However, for the belly or needing to shave them it would not be beneficial.
I can’t even get my cat into a carrier! I had to cancel my vet appt for the cat to have it’s sanitary grooming. I’m at a loss.
Esse é muito comportado 🤗
My cat would rip my face just by the sound of the razor 😅😅😅
What if your cat is born of the devil?
They must have used some calming meds because my cat wouldn't be so Calm.
No, the cat wasn't on any medications and groomers aren't permitted to administer anything themselves. Most cats do quite well with the appropriate handling techniques.
calm cat considering if it wasn't u would scratched up and bloody. oh god i will need 2 people to hold my cat down to do this
Why the legs?
Do you mean why do we shave the inside of the rear legs? It assists in keeping the area clean while they are using the litter box, as it can get wet on some cats leading to uncomfortable knots and skin irritations.
@@NationalCatGroomers Would you typically only do this for cats with longer fur?
It depends on the cat. Longhaired yes, and a lot of larger or overweight shorthaired cats to help keep them clean as well.
AWFUL. This video should have a DONY TRY THIS AT HOME disclaimer.Maybe only a trained professional knows how to shave so close to the skin, or pull a cat's legs and tail so harshly without causing harm, trauma, anxiety, but I would NEVER treat my (or any) cat this way - unless he is sedated and won't remember and hate me for the rest of his life. I know the tech doesn't have time for kindness and coaxing, but if you treat your pet this way, you're an asshole. Watch videos by The Cat Butler and so many other kind groomers.
We are not techs, we are cat groomers. And there were no harsh positions or movements, and shaving is done with a #10 blade (the safest blade length) to keep their sanitary area neat and tidy to prevent matting. We also use this blade and positioning when a cat comes to us very matted and they need to be removed. The skin must be held smooth and firm or else the risk of cutting is greatly increased. We always consider the cat's body, natural movements and preferences when choosing which techniques to use and when - this is demonstrating one way of providing a sanitary trim.
You’re absolutely correct. I’ve watched professional grooming and when the cat starts to get stressed out, the groomers are to try different techniques! This grooming had me & this cat pissed off!😡
Cry more 😂
If I didn’t do it this way, my cat would tear my face off!! You HAVE to be firm and control most cats to groom them and this technique is the best one I’ve ever used to groom my own cat.
And she doesn’t hate me fyi. She sleeps with me and my hubby every single night due to the fact she stays so clean, so go bitch somewhere else!
This cat has to be sedated.
Okay I have a friend who rescues a lot of animals, and she takes care of them accordingly. I have a huge cat is a cross breed between a Norwegian and a Maine Coon. His poop is always getting stuck in his butt... She tried to shave his backside and the demon Satan himself came out of his mouth. I want to help my baby so bad but I don't know how to do it. And all the vets say that if they're too feisty they won't do it. Somebody help
