Cat Grooming Designed to Minimise Stress
At Vanity Fur VIP, every cat is groomed on a one-to-one basis in a peaceful setting, without the noise or distractions of a busy salon. Having owned and cared for cats for many years, including a number of my own, I understand just how individual they can be. Every appointment is tailored to your cat.
Cat Grooming Services - Add ons
Not all cats require a full groom so rather than including unnecessary extras, you can choose from a range of add-on treatments to create a groom tailored to your cat’s individual needs,
without adding anything they don’t require.
Bathing & Drying
A gentle, carefully managed bathing and drying process using cat-appropriate products and a calm, quiet approach. Everything is carried out at your cat’s pace, helping them feel as comfortable and settled as possible throughout.
De-matting and Coat Maintenance
Coat care to keep your cat’s coat comfortable, healthy and manageable. Minor tangles can often be eased out carefully, helping to prevent discomfort and potential skin issues.
Any matting is approached slowly and with your cat’s welfare in mind. Where possible, small knots may be worked through gently, depending on your cat’s tolerance.
If matting is more significant or close to the skin, the kindest and most appropriate approach will always be chosen to keep your cat comfortable and safe.
​
Nail Clipping
Nail trimming to help keep your cat’s nails at a comfortable length and prevent overgrowth. The process is carried out with care, adapting to your cat so they feel as settled as possible throughout.
Nail clipping can be included as part of a full groom or booked as a standalone appointment.
Full Cat Grooms
A full cat groom is ideal for long-haired breeds and for cats who need a little extra support in maintaining their coat. Regular grooming helps to remove loose, dead coat, reduce shedding around the home, and keep your cat’s coat clean, comfortable and free from tangles.

-
Brushing to remove loose undercoat

Ideal for Long-haired breeds such as Persians, Ragdolls and Maine Coons, as well as cats who struggle to maintain their coat themselves.
Book Your Cat Grooming Appointment
If you’re considering cat grooming, you’re very welcome to get in touch to discuss your cat’s needs. Guidance can be given along with an estimated cost based on their coat and temperament.
Smaller treatments, such as nail clipping, can often be carried out as a short, while-you-wait appointment.
Cat Grooming FAQs
Do cats really need grooming?
Some cats, particularly long-haired breeds or older cats, benefit greatly from grooming support to keep their coat comfortable and free from matting.
​
Will my cat be stressed?
Every effort is made to keep your cat calm by working slowly, reading their behaviour and creating a quiet, relaxed environment.
​
Can you groom a matted cat?
This depends on the severity. The priority is always your cat’s comfort, and the kindest option will be discussed with you.
How often should my cat be groomed?
This varies depending on coat type and lifestyle, but advice can be given based on your individual cat.
​
Getting your cat ready
Cats can be very perceptive so keeping the carrier out of sight until the day of the appointment can sometimes make getting them ready a little easier.
