“A lot of groomers insist on sedating cats before grooming them. I would never feel comfortable with that, so I was very happy when I found Nina!

It’s been five years now since she first groomed my Persian-Ragdoll mix, Hazel. Sometimes, I have Nina just give her a sanitary cut and/or a belly shave, to make life a little easier while keeping Hazel looking like her usual fluffy self. But sometimes we get the “comb cut,” which is so cute, and makes Hazel look like a kitten! Hazel‘s hair is very long, and also very soft, and at our first grooming appointment, it became clear that her fur tends to really gum up the blades of the clippers. But Nina knew right away what to do. Now she uses special blades with Hazel so there are no problems.

Nina speaks so sweetly to Hazel and is very patient. I wouldn’t exactly say that Hazel loves getting a haircut. But because Nina is so good with her, Hazel behaves herself pretty well - which is saying a lot for a cat!

I think it takes a special kind of person to groom cats, and I would be hesitant to take Hazel to anyone else. I highly recommend Nina.”
