At Waggin' Tails Grooming, we believe that every cat deserves a grooming style that reflects their personality. Whether you’re looking for a bold, dramatic change or a cute, cuddly appearance, our professional groomers offer a variety of specialized cuts, including lion trims, comb cuts, and teddy bear trims. These grooming styles are perfect for cats with long or thick fur who need a stylish look that is both practical and adorable.
Located in Schenectady, NY, our groomers specialize in these unique trims that are not only fashionable but also help with maintaining a healthy coat. Whether you have a fluffy Maine Coon or a regal Persian, we’ve got the perfect trim to keep your cat looking their best.
A lion trim is one of the most distinctive and stylish grooming options for cats. This look involves trimming the body of the cat short while leaving the fur around the face, neck, and chest longer, creating the appearance of a lion’s mane. This dramatic look is perfect for cats with thick, long fur like Persians or Maine Coons, and it’s a great choice if you want a low-maintenance coat while still showing off some stylish fluff around the face and neck.
A comb cut is a more moderate trim, ideal for cats that need a quick tidy-up without drastic changes. The comb cut involves trimming the body of the cat while leaving the fur longer on the legs and tail, making it look natural but well-groomed. This style is perfect for cats who need to stay cooler in the summer but still want a fluffy appearance. It’s a stylish yet practical choice for many cats with medium to long coats.
A teddy bear trim gives your cat a soft, rounded, and cuddly look. This trim involves shortening the coat to a uniform length, giving your cat the appearance of a cute stuffed animal. The teddy bear trim is perfect for cats who have thick, long fur but want a manageable, low-maintenance style that still looks adorable. It’s a great option for keeping your cat’s coat neat and clean while maintaining a cute, fluffy look.
When you bring your cat in for a trim, our groomers will start with a consultation to discuss your preferences and the look you want for your cat. We will assess your cat’s coat type and condition to determine the best trim for their specific needs. Some cats may have thicker fur, more tangling, or sensitive skin, and we’ll tailor the trim to ensure their comfort throughout the process.
Before we begin any trimming, we will thoroughly brush your cat’s coat to remove tangles, mats, and loose fur. This is an essential step in the grooming process as it helps ensure a smooth and even trim. If your cat has particularly matted areas, we will carefully detangle them before proceeding with the cut.
Once the coat is prepped, we will begin trimming your cat’s fur based on the style you’ve chosen. Whether it’s a lion trim, comb cut, or teddy bear trim, our groomers will use specialized tools and techniques to achieve the perfect look. We take great care to ensure the trim is even and comfortable for your cat, with special attention to sensitive areas like the face, paws, and tail.
After the trim is complete, we’ll perform a final grooming touch-up to ensure that your cat’s coat is smooth and tidy. We may trim any excess fur around the paws, ears, or face to give your cat a polished, finished look.
Once your cat is groomed, we’ll provide you with advice on how to maintain their coat between grooming visits. This may include tips on brushing techniques, at-home care, and how often to schedule future trims to keep your cat looking their best.
Even with a trim, regular brushing is essential to keep your cat’s coat in good condition. Brushing helps manage shedding, prevent mats, and keep your cat comfortable between grooming sessions. We can recommend the best brushing techniques and tools for your cat’s specific coat type during their visit.
Keep an eye on your cat’s coat for any signs of matting, tangles, or dirt buildup. Early attention can help prevent mats from getting worse and ensure your cat stays comfortable and clean between grooming appointments.
