ADDITIONAL CAT STYLING ADD-ON OR WALK-IN SERVICES :

• Nail Clipping— Did you know that your cat should be walking on the pads of its feet and not the toe nails? When your cat is walking on its toe nails it creates more wear and tear on the joints which causes premature arthritis. Keeping the nails and pad hair short will aid in arthritis prevention. This service is included in regular grooming and can also be performed as a walk-in service.

• Pad Trimming—Is your cat slipping around on your wood floors or tracking cat litter all over your house? By keeping the nails and pad hair short, your cat will have cleaner feet and better traction on slippery floors. Keeping the nails and pad hair short will aid in arthritis prevention. This service is included in regular grooming and can also be performed as a walk-in service.
