Do you groom cats in your salon? If you do, we're sure you have run into a few challenges with the grooming process. Not all cats appreciate being groomed by others. We're betting you've dealt with a few difficult ones. Angry ones. Grumpy ones.
Cats are unique. There's not much hope of reasoning with a cat. Commands? Ha! They don't respond to commands! After all...it is a cat.
They have less patience than a dog. Plus, they typically have more weapons - and they are not afraid to use them. When faced with a challenging kitty, do you press on and groom them anyway... or do you run away?
In this lesson, cat groomer extraordinaire, Danelle German takes on this feisty feline. She guides you through the entire grooming process step-by-step: pre-bath, bath, dry, and finish.
Even though this is a regular client for Danelle, it does not make her any safer to groom. Danelle has to keep her guard up every second while she works with her. Danelle is highly aware of what triggers this cat. Danelle shares many of her cat grooming secrets, not only about grooming, but also how to keep the groomer and the cat safe.
Battle wounds from being a professional cat groomer simply go with the territory. In this lesson, Danelle shows you how to do an excellent groom despite this feline's displeasure of the process. (Yes, she growls through most of the video with the exception of one procedure.)
This entire lesson is filled with great tips and tricks. This L2GD lesson features real grooming on a typical cat - just like you'd see in your salon. As she works, Danelle tells you the products and tools she uses to get top-notch results. Many of the items featured in this lesson can be from on her website.
