The team here at Kitty Cuts Grooming is thrilled to be considered for your cat's grooming needs and assures you that we will always have the best interest of your cat's health, personality and well-being in mind while in our care. We are the first of its kind in the Greater Metro Detroit area that offers an exclusive luxury service for CATS ONLY. We provide a safe, calming and dog-free atmosphere where the amount of stress will be minimal for each cat. NO dogs present means NO loud barking, NO multiple groomers creating an overabundance of dogs at once, NO dog smells and/or NO howling/whining. We specialize in grooming each cat or family of cats on a one-on-one basis, providing them with our full attention during their groom. In addition to helping each cat live a long and healthy life, we want to help them, and the owners keep up on achieving a healthy and comfortable coat regularly.
We believe every cat deserves to look and feel beautiful. By caring for each cat in a calm, comfortable and professional environment, we strive to make each cat experience a positive and happy one. |
We get that!
It’s why I opened a feline-exclusive grooming salon that solves the grooming problems which are part of life with a cat. I understand that this may be new to some; I often hear, "I never knew cats needed to be groomed" or "cats hate water". Believe me cats want to feel fresh and clean just as human and dogs. Along with offering your cat a quiet and safe environment, the additional key to success with every cats grooming experience is having the proper education, training, handling skills and knowledge on how to read a cats behavior. This is what I am able to offer to you and your cat as I have 14 years experience working with cats and am a member of the National Cat Groomers Association that has provided me with specialized training in handling, safety, temperament, health and breed specific grooming. |
What other options do I have? Until now, your only options are a vet who will only do a shave down not providing bath, however, with the added expense of sedation at $300+ or a very noisy dog grooming salon. Imagine what your cat is facing being shoved into their carrier, leaving the comfort of home, driving in a car and ending up at a dog grooming salon. This is a strange place with lots of foreign smells and loud barking dogs (a sound they may have never heard). Then the grooming starts, they are sitting on a table exposed to all the dogs and other groomers whom they have not met. Your cat either becomes too frightened to move or goes into defense mode and wants to hurt anything or anyone near them. They are introduced to sounds (loud dryers, clippers, scissors, people talking all around with barking dogs) and then introduced to the bath all very quickly because as a groomer you need to get that cat completed before its turkey timer is done (approximately 90 minutes). This scenario can create havoc on your cats sensory system causing them to shut down even for days after they return home. Not all cats are candidates for grooming at a dog salon, you as the owner are the only one that knows your cat well enough to determine if they can survive a dog salon. |
We groom one-on-one as best as we can, as appointments may run over at times, another cat may be dropped off during the time we are working on one cat. We do not use unnecessary force, nor will we put cats or ourselves at risk. For safety, we do not groom cats that are feral, pregnant or nursing, skunked, have open wounds or "fractious" cats. We encourage all cats to be updated on their rabies vaccination as it is required by Michigan Law. If they are vaccinated, please make sure to complete the information on the New Client Form with the expiration date or provide us with a copy from the vet stating the date of expirations. We will groom cats without a rabies vaccination; however, this is with the understanding that at any point we feel we are at risk of getting bite we will have to stop no matter how far I got in the groom. You are responsible for paying for the portion we were able to complete. This information is stated in the"Liability Waiver" which MUST be signed prior to the first appointment. |
