As a solo groomer trying to groom a cat, it can be challenging to handle their body and gain access to the areas that need grooming, such as the hind legs, armpits, or tail. These areas are often hard to reach without assistance. Grooming a cat alone requires the groomer to multitask and fulfill the roles of two or three people. Not only do they have to keep the cat in position, but they also have to groom them while ensuring that theyāre comfortable. It’s a demanding task for both the groomer and the cat.Ā
To make the grooming process comfortable for the cat, it’s important to keep the cat in natural positions. This means avoiding any movements that may strain their limbs or twist their back in an unnatural way. Maintaining natural body postures is especially beneficial for cats with underlying conditions like hip dysplasia, arthritis, or obesity.Ā
If a cat experiences pain during grooming, it becomes nearly impossible to provide them with a thorough groom. Cats will resist and protect themselves, and rightfully so. With Tandem Groomingā¢, two people work together to groom the cat. This helps preserve the cat’s comfort during the grooming process. By ensuring the cat’s comfort, we can extend their tolerance and provide a more thorough groom. Cats are generally more tolerant when they are approached in a gentle and cooperative manner.
