Confessions of a Professional Cat Groomer: Book Review

CAT BLOGGERS REVIEW CLAWS

Exclusively Cats – Sally Bahner 

“The image of a typical cat groomer is one of an aproned individual, armed with combs and clippers and a compliant kitty on the table.

Talk to Anita Kelsey and you’ll learn that nothing is further from the truth. And she has the scars to prove it.

In her new book, “Claws: Confessions of a Professional Cat Groomer,” Kelsey introduces us to her feline challenges. Her grooming expertise, combined with her designation as a cat behavior consultant, are key to her success. She approaches her charges with a cool eye and sizes them up thoroughly before laying her hands on them. Of course, they size her up as well, after they’ve exhausted the patience of their owners” READ MORE

There are so many  TV programmes throwing light on what it’s like to do various jobs and professions;doctors,lawyers train drivers, vets  and journalists included. These programmes have even been shown to influence teenagers’s career choices. Now there hasn’t been a programme about cat grooming yet (to my knowledge) but there is now a book by London based Professional Cat Groomer and Cat Behaviourist, Anita Kelsey.

Now, cat grooming is a whole new world to me even though we have our own three kitties (thankfully we are able to take care of their low maintenance grooming needs) so I was especially interested to know what professional grooming involves. READ MORE
