He's so adorable ! What a funny lovely angry face, the cute little devil/angel
His fur looked almost wool like in some instances.
When I first started watching both channels, I thought the talking was just for our benefit, to explain and teach.
But now I am thinking it is also for the benefit of the animals, proving calm, quiet and constant human sound to anchor them, as much as possible, away from anxiety.
Part of his coat issue is undoubtedly related to his heart prob. (just like his weird nails). What I'm wondering is which products his owner 8s using on him. I know this is probably the 1st or 2nd thing you thought about when evaluating him, but I didn't hear you mention it during the video. You must have a product to make his fur a little better. Which one would you suggest for this little guy?
Thanks for another great video, Vanessa! He was such a good boy - I think he has a secret crush on you. ❤
@@bkitteh6295 A leave-in conditioner?
I know they have them for humans in pump-spray bottles, but I've never used one myself as I have normal to oily hair.
Owner of Koji here - thank you so much for the groom Vanessa! He was shivering a lot the first few days he was home so I increased the temperature in the house. He's been cuddling with me every day and is sleeping right next to me in bed right now! He's stopped shivering and back to his normal self
I sometimes give my cats a hot water bottle wrapped in a towel when they are cool so they have the option to cuddle up to that
@@ashrowan2143 that's a great idea! I will try that next time. Thanks!
You might also consider getting an x-small pet sweater for those times when he might need to be shaved in the future. You can find them for under $10.
@@MT-kb3xl no problem you can also find self heating pet beds but I haven't gotten one of those for my cats so can't personally vouch for them
@@catswatchingbirds818 yes, I am planning on getting him one . Not sure if he'll like it though 😂
You are correct, Venessa... the strange nails (and his coat also) are due to his heart condition that causes poor circulation to the ends of his "fingers and toes"... same thing happened to humans with bad hearts. He wasn't happy but he sure was one of the best behaved cat ever!!!
I have lung disease and I also have weird toenails and fingernails. It took a pulmonary specialist a few years ago to let me know that. Kitty cat has to be a thousand times more comfortable without all those mats and it sounds as if the owner can deal with the bathing part when he is more relaxed.
@@d.l.parham157 So in your case your lung condition means there's not enough oxygen in the blood that reaches your fingers and toes. Different cause, similar effect.
Ah, now I know why my toenails might do the strange things they do.
Guess this is like club nails?
In humans, we call it - if i translate it correctly - watch glass nails, and it can happen in heart and in lung diseases too, because it caused by long term hypoxaemia (low oxygen level in the bood which is the result of bad pulmonary circulation or bad oxygen diffusion in the lung).
If he’s not stressed by the bath and blow dry at home, it makes sense to just shave him at your salon and then let the owners handle the rest to maximize his comfort. Each groom is so unique and I love your judgment in each situation. What a good little guy he was!
Firmly agreed, exactly what I was thinking tbh.
My cardiac kitty passed from his condition in November. It makes me happy to see this little guy being well taken care of ❤
Mine passed on the third of January.😭😿😢
One really important fact that I wish I had known about was that he had a Level Three Heart Murmur and how much I needed to look after his teeth in order to avoid him having an anaesthetic.
Please look after your cat's teeth, as they get older, they are at a much greater risk with an anaesthetic with or without a heart murmur.
I miss that little guy so much.x💔💔💔
How old was your little one?
Mine was 1.5 and it just happened so suddenly!
@@taraellis8279 My boy managed to get to twelve and a half, he had been born with a condition called "Flat Chested Kitten Syndrome" and I was warned that he might not pull through when he was a tiny kitten, but thankfully he did.
We enjoyed twelve and a half amazing years together, he was by my side when I was seriously ill on my sick-bed with an abdominal issue, being a really loving and loyal cat.
Harry succumbed to Feline Stomatosis, which is an extremely nasty condition indeed. It broke my heart to see him suffer and fading away, his vet felt that removing his teeth would help, but I was warned that he had a Level Three Heart Murmur accompanied by Atrial Fibulation and his vet warned me from the outset that it was going to be fifty-fifty.
I think maybe if it ever happens again, I will suggest going down the steroids route to begin with... In retrospect, think that would have been a better option for Harry.😭
I have now started brushing my remaining cat's teeth and getting her shots up to date, she is also on a raw diet.
We as cat parents can only do our very best can't we?🤷
@@taraellis8279 He was only 5. He didn't show any symptoms until January last year, when he had some spells we thought were seizures. Then at the end of May he went into full congestive heart failure. I got 6 more months with him with the help of some wonderful cardiologists and the fact that my sweet boy never minded taking all his meds. I'm sorry about your kitty. It's such a cruel disease whether they are taken suddenly or slowly
@@WouldbeRenaissanceLady6926 I'm so sorry. Its so unfair. My boy was neutered at 1, and didn't show any symptoms until he was 5 so thankfully came out of his neuter OK. He declined quite rapidly after the onset of symptoms. I miss him everyday
I WISH there was a silent set of clippers. I think it would go a long way towards not stressing out the animals.
Same with a silent hair dryer. I think even humans hate the sound of hair dryers
@@piplupcola as a human i can confirm i hate the sound
can't you use a nail file or however it's called in english? it's silent but takes more time
I was thinking 🤔 the same thing because animals have unique hearing abilities so imagine how loud and terrifying those blow dryers and clippers motor sound hopefully someone will invent a noiseless clipper & dryer set made especially for animals grooming ❤
I haven't used a hairdryer since 1989 because the sound is too much for me -- and I have control over the thing. I can't imagine the stress for animals.
It brings me joy to know that this little guy, with all his medical conditions, found a family who love him and puts his needs first. May he enjoy a long life with his family.
unfortunately he will not have a long life with a stage 4 murmur :\ but at least he will be loved and cared for with the months he has left.
He's such a beautiful boi. ❤🥰
miracles can happen, lets all pray to Jesus, Muhammad, Allah, or whoever people pray to.@@LegallyBoopy
@@LegallyBoopyHow old is he currently?
idk but cats with stage 4 heart murmurs dont tend to live more than another year before their heart fails@@autumngargus9301
This poor little guy is obviously loved and cared for. What a good kitty.
Such a sweetheart of a kitty. I can understand this worry; my chihuahua has reverse PDA w/pulmonary hypertension. Her illness makes finding a groomer super difficult because no one wants to take a high risk dog in. So we take care of her as best we can at home. Recently she needed surgery because, like this baby, vets didn't want to fix her because of anesthesia complications. Her being unfixed though lead her to so many other problems, including mammary tumors and a massive hernia. She survived the surgery though, and is doing really well!
Thank you for your gentleness, your education and sharing Koji with us. May be continue to flourish against his ailments and keep on living his best life!
I can tell your pup is so loved! I wish you and her all the best!🫶🏼🫶🏼
He was an extremely good boy even though he hated his groom. I'm sure he feels better now he doesn't have all those mats pulling at him and I hope his beautiful coat grows back quickly for him.
I agree very well behaved !
Really good boy for an intact male cat. Vanessa must have gained his trust for him to become almost relaxed for his groom. Wonderful work Vanessa ❤
Even with the matting, this kitty is very much well loved and cared for. Can see it in his behavior and how he allows you to move him. Cats are sensitive about their tummies, so his response to being on his back with tummy exposed is perfectly acceptable. Glad the owner pays attention to their fur baby and recognized they needed help with the matting. Good kitty!
just seeing how staticky and desperate his hair is to stick to everything it’s no wonder he’s matted tbh, it seems like a nightmare to deal with lmao
A cat this matted is NOT being well cared for. I've had Persians and I brushed them regularly. ITS EASY. There is no excuse for this cat's condition.. This is NEGLECT.
@@LolaLaRue-sq6jm how you live could be different from this cats owner. your environment, even down to humidity makes a difference in the way animal fur behaves. you can look in the animal's eyes and see that they are cared for. if not, the cat would not have been able to be handled as much as it was.
@@LolaLaRue-sq6jm You only know what you see in this video, and Vanessa literally gives us so much backstory on this cat's condition and treatment at home. Koji is clearly VERY loved, but with his medical condition in his heart (which affects his ability to clean himself, his hair texture, and many other things. heart conditions are no joke) matting isn't a matter of IF, but WHEN. No matter how often you brush your cat, if he is not grooming himself, he WILL GET MATTED. So I suggest you grow up and stop being such a horrible person on the internet.
I recently lost my fav cat ever. Her name was Zoey and she was a long haired calico. She was the sweetest girl ever. She liked being shaved and groomed. Shed happily sit there as id pick at her dreads. She became my emotional support animal. Anytime id be extra stressed shed see that and do anything in her pawer to get me to pay attention to her and not what's stressing me out. Shed start tapping me. Meowing etc. I miss her everyday. But I feel the cat supply system brought her back. A stay mama showed up a month after her passing. She got pregnant with a intact male that belongs to one of my neighbors. And one of the six kittens reminds me exactly of her. It almost makes me cry like she came back to me in a weird way.
Poor Koji looked so dejected as he crawled back into his carrier. He seems like such a sweet kitty!! ❤❤
You ever wonder if they say "I'm NAKED WHAT THE HECK!!!" afterwards??? Lol .. He's a pretty kitty... Glad his pawrents are doing all they can to keep him safe from his heart murmur.....
Do they think we’re naked cuz we don’t have fur or do they know our clothes are like fur and protect us?
@@KATinBLACK if you have clothes that protect you from cats, tell me where to find them LOL.... But that's a great point...
Thats why they slink back into their carriers after, they're like "oh god I'm so exposed!!"
such a good boy. He escaped real quick at the end 🤣
That slink of shame. 😂
Yes he did. He was all "I'm just gonna go in here"....BYE!
he went full 007 there
beautiful lil boy❣️
Nice job, Vanessa…curious to know how long it will take for the hair to grow in to its full length.
What a sweet little kitty. Poor boy has a serious health issue. The owners did a nice job in getting him use to being groomed.
Wish you a long life Koji, despite your heart issues. Having an owner who was willing to provide him with a good and safe life despite the health challenges -thank you!
Problems, not "issues."
@@JeffC-fq1be Problems and issues are synonymous. Stop being a troll.
@@naoedouard4422 Yes, to ignorant people, they are. Don't stop being ignorant.
@@JeffC-fq1beyou have both
@@JeffC-fq1be Problem: a matter or situation regarded as unwelcome or harmful and needing to be dealt with and overcome.
Issue: an important topic or **problem** for debate or discussion.
So yes, they do mean essentially the same thing. Especially when you take into consideration the fact that language is fluid and definitions change constantly over time and depending on context. I suggest you take the stick out of your ass and do a little research before you leave rude comments.
I could see that the underarm matting was bothering this poor guy- when it was gone he was so much more willing to stand up and move! Glad you could help him out!
Hopefully when he’s back in a familiar environment, his owner can give him a pleasant little spa bath, or whatever treats or toys he likes best to congratulate him on being such a good boy!
Maybe a nice oatmeal bath - that can really help with dry skin.
I have a cat with a staticy coat, too. We got him free with a delivery of hay, and he is less imprinted on human beings, so grooming is a real challenge. Our hay grower had live trapped him and was otherwise going to rehome him to a farm without dogs. Clearly, with his medium to long hair and fluffy rather than slick hair texture, he was not designed to live out of doors. He keeps to himself and our other cats, so even catching him for brushing is a challenge. He is almost like a Roomba in that he picks up every piece of debris in a room.
"Free with a delivery of hay " that is a true example of how the Cat Distribution System works.
@@Bremen25 Every time I lose a cat to old age, I know they are making way for another who will be al9ng soon. I'm not sure when or how, but they come.
See if you can make a "licking station" something like a damp rag set up with one of those brushes that sticks to a table leg so cats can brush themselves. The damp rag can help get more dirt off him. And then that might give you more time to acclimatize him to human touch at his speed.
We had a rescue Siberian Forest Cat for over 17 years. We didn't realize what we were getting into by owning him, as he was only 8 months old when we adopted him from the shelter and we were newly married 23 year olds who had some cat experience, but no understanding of this beautiful breed and the amount of fur he would release during molting!
Our lovely boy became HUGE and required so much grooming, combing, climbing , but he was truly the sweetest, gentlest, and most loving cat I have experienced. The little meow is exactly like Koji's and a very similar temperament.
You did a great job with this lovely, loving cat Venessa! What a wonderful gift to the owner. I can't imagine knowing that our boy was so matted and not being able to easily have our vet take care of him.
I miss our guy daily even after three years, and when it is time for another pet, a rescue Siberian Forest cat is on the top of our list!
Aww, poor little guy. He seemed like a pleasure to groom, so well behaved especially for a cat. I hope he lives a healthy life.
Poor little dude. Glad he has a family that lurves him and he got help. It's always "I hate the doom box!" at first, then after the bad things happen "I love the doom box, take me home!"
That final shot of him peeping out of the corner of his carrier…ADORABLE!
He's such a beautiful kitty with a sweet face. I'm impressed with how he dealt with the grooming. You can tell he's viewing it as like a "let's just get this done and over with a soon as possible" probably even knowing that fighting it makes it take longer. Such a sweetheart ❤
Siberians are known for that sweet facial expression.
What a great job you did on "Mr. Static"! My cat did not like the blow dryer, but she LOVED the Dust Buster vacuum! She would let me vacuum her all over & purred the whole time! Thank you for taking such good care of all the dogs & cats you groom. You're the best!
I wonder why? They’re both loud. I guess she didn’t like the air blowing on her.
mine tolerated the vacuum too. I think was like a massage for him - form the sucking and releasing of the skin@@devin2156
My husband had a cat that loved being vacuumed. Never met one since.
@@vellathewench About 40 years ago I grew up with a deaf cat, he LOVED being vacuumed.
The happiest moment for a scared and shaved cat is the opportunity to go into his carrier!❤
That side-eye once he was back in the carrier!
This cat is very well behaved! Im surprised at how chill he was.
Kodji wasn't chill, but highly stressed as you could see him breathing heavily. When anxious you can freeze with the fear and curl your body up which is what he was doing by facing away and making himself appear smaller. I worried about the stress on his already weak heart, poor, sweet boy.
@cozycountry1 Yes, he was stressed. Few cats in that situation aren't. It's a scary place to be, but he was relatively chill. He wasn't hissing, swatting, or being aggressive. Sadly, there probably wasn't a much better option for him that wouldn't involve stressing him, either emotionally/mentally or physically on his heart.
Poor lil rotisserie chicken!
His tiny meow broke my heart 😢
It's sad to see such a beautiful coat cut off but it's also necessary. As someone who has long haired dogs with fur that tangles really easily, it is always sad when we have to cut out mats and slightly frustrating because we try to prevent the mats from forming but there's only so much you can do as an owner.
Exactly!
What a sweet boy. He seems so gentle and lovely! Hope his new coat is beautiful and majestic!
Siberians are wonderful! (We’ve had two.)
Honestly, considering what a mess his coat was, and what you had to do to him, he is a REMARKABLY patient cat! What a trusting sweetie.
It also shows how good at your job you are, that you were able to do all that and not have him just losing it!
He’s so well behaved. It’s apparent that he trusts Vanessa. What a sweetheart.❤❤
The owners seem to be doing everything they can to take care of this cat, he has an amazing family❤
Digestion takes a huge amount of blood flow; his heart is why he isn't hungry. Cat's also get almost all of their hydration from their food, so with that heart condition he needs to be eating only wet or watered food. Normally at least some dry food is good to help keep their teeth clean (cats and dogs) but I think Koji and his owners can handle regular toothbrushing.
Great advice ❤
It's an old wives tale that dry food keeps their teeth clean. It's purely genetics.
@@pitchforkSue Not true, but not wrong either. Dry food can actually scrape the plaque off certain teeth, but is has a lower effect on others. It is, however, a myth that wet food causes tooth decay. Either way, most vets recommend a mix of wet and dry food, for variation in the cat's diet if nothing else.
I've been working on my long haired boy all week. He has a few areas that were starting to mat. I've been working on one a day. I showed him this video and told him that this would be his future if he didn't let me finish.
Koji is a beautiful boy. He's a good boy and very lucky to have a person who takes such good care of him.
his parent was quite lucky to find such a sweet kitty like him, and he was quite lucky to find a parent to take care of him and love him unconditionally. i am sure he will enjoy a nice spa day with his parent if he should need one, in his home where he is less stressed
That poor little guy... my kitty, which you once featured on a video before, 😊 is also a Siberian. They have similar tones to their coats. Her fur is also so full of static -- it just gets everywhere! I'm glad he was so good for you.
What was the title of her video that featured your cat?? I would love to watch!
Same with my little girl. It’s super fine and gets everywhere. Not to mention she has what seems like three layers of it
The same goes with my two Siberians, their fur sticks everywhere, to everything, all the time. And I'm waiting to get a third Siberian in a few months. I've just accepted that cat fur is in my life and it's going to stay that way 😂
@@loveframSiberians do have 3 layers of fur so it's not just an impression that you have. 😊
@@danielleking262yes I would love to know! I love the cat videos too
I have a Siberian cat too and yep, their fur is almost self felting. It's such a weird ultra dense fur. He needs to be brushed every day which is a constant battle.
He’s the sweetest kitty. Thank you for caring so much and being gentle and patient with him.
Goodness me, that was nerve-wracking, what with the incredibly high stakes. I think I stopped breathing for at least half the video!
Bless Koji and his owner, who is giving him a chance at a good life and taking such good care of him ❤
Thank you Vanessa for helping Koji, that must have been a bit daunting for you too 💗💗
I love your tenderness with every animal- this little guy was so calm … my cat would have removed your arm ..
It is sadly a very bad sign when they are that calm (especially cats). This just means that he lacks the energy. „Feisty“ means healthy most of the time.
omg not a chance with our cat tortie, but the big lazy orange cat probably wouldnt do more than look grumpy
My cat would have added the head 😇😂
Thank you, I've not had a cat in many years but I remember my ginger well - there is no way he would have tolerated anyone grooming him. I had him many decades ago when it was normal for cats to be allowed outdoors and when neutering was not common. He pretty much did his own thing. He was affectionate and purred a lot at dinner time, otherwise he was not 'touchy/feely" at all. 😂😂
lol sameee
His face is so incredibly sweet, and his little meow omg!!
My family had a Persian with similar fur, hardly an appetite, and thick claws. She was all the time having to be shaved because her fur would stick and tangle terribly no matter what we did. Vet thought she might’ve had a murmur, but had a hard time catching it, so wasn’t sure.
This cute boy was so much better behaved then her though. Ha ha. (She was a rescue. I have no idea what her life was like before we got her. But she was a real sweetie)
Thank you so much for helping him out!
I feel like this is great context. Commenting to try to help boost.
That is an insanely cute cat. One of the cutest cats I've seen on this channel.
10:59 broke my entire heart he looked so sad
He needed this trim: too much matting can lead to a lot of endoparasytes and other skin problems 😳
I would rather have seen him have a rest just being gently snuggled instead of sitting on a hard floor in a cold cage. That struck me as a real misstep, sensitivity-wise.
@@denverdubois5835I'm sure he didn't want anything to do with her, specially cuddle after shaving him 😅
@@jebVlogs556it's sad Vanessa trimmed also the good parts of his coat. It's better only to shave his matted parts. On his back it wasn't necessary to shave everything down.
@@IsurrendertoGodor his paws. The tufty toes on my kitties are super cute, and I'd be so upset if they were shaved off.
He got a squirrel cut!
Poor baby. 😢 Thanks for giving him comfort. He seemed pretty calm. ❤
oh my goodness, what a delicate baby. You are so gentle and precise, he was in the best hands
Poor blood circulation can lead to dry skin due to reduced production of moisturizing oils. Also could explain the fur static. Have you considered mixing a small amount of conditioner into water and using that in a spray bottle to reduce the static? Like a detangling spray for humans but with cat-safe conditioner.
WOW. I feel like this video REALLY demonstrated your high level of skills and experience. Your gentleness and attention to this little kit's needs and body language were beautiful.
As always you did a terrific job. And this little kitty was so well behaved through it all. I love his eyes just so sweet.
I always appreciate the compassion and tenderness you show the animals.❤
He is very cute, I'm sure he appreciated the care - probably not until he was at home, though. You are so good with the animals you groom!💗
Such a sweet little guy. He just acts like he is so over the whole grooming business 😊
What a little darling.❤ He's got so many things stacked against him. Good thing he has a loving human. ❤️
Your voice is so soothing to the animals, and you stay calm. I am sure that helps the animals a lot. Thanks for caring so much.
Oh my gosh he’s clearly so unhappy about this and yet he’s being SO good, and WHAT A CUTIE!
I am always amazed at these cats that are so well behaved. My cat would be crazy wild and torn your shop up. It takes two people just to trim his claws. Otherwise he is the sweetest most loving cat. You are truly a cat whisperer.
I'd love to see the grooming of a crazy long haired cat. Cause I've one who gets sometimes dirty on his butt and it's so nerve-challenging to clean/shave him for 2 non-professionnal folks like us 😅
I had a longhaired cat who needed three people to clip his front claws. One to hold him, one to distract him, and one to do the clipping.
What a sweetheart Koji is. Too bad he was so matted he had to be shaved. I just wanted to put a cat sweater on him to keep him warm when you were done.
What a sweet cat!
This cat is clearly loved and cared for! He was so sweet during the shave even though he was anxious.
Adorable cat, cute meows, a good boy, sad about his heart condition but happy he's not matted anymore. Maybe it'll grow back less static-y 😂 and we can get an update video?
When he's regrown his hair I will let Vanessa know!
Such a sweet and obliging kitty. Good thing too given he can't be sedated.
It's great how extensive your knowledge & awareness are. You're tops, Vanessa! You helped this beloved kitty so much. ❤
FYI when my cat developed heart disease, her claws got very thick as you were describing in your video. So that is probably why they are like that
I also wanted to mention that when you blow the hair away from your nose and your face -- to a cat that may sound like you are hissing at them because it's such a short, sharp sound. That could add to the stress of the situation
Thank you for doing everything that you do. I can't believe that anyone would complain about you giving free grooming service. What you're doing is wonderful!
thickened nails can happen in humans due to problems with circulation, like when a human has heart problems. Due to the mechanism behind that I see it as highly likely that this is true for cats as well.
Now that you mention it that could affect appetite (not enough blood flow to the stomach) and skin for the same reasons.
He’s “Old Deuteronomy’s” twin! 😽😽
... affectionately known as 'Neuter-not-o-me'. 😻
He’s a beautiful cat. A friend of mine has Siberians and I love them. I’m glad Koji feels better. You took excellent care of him. Kudos to his cat dad for being such a good pet parent.
What an extraordinarily well behaved gentleman! Thank you so much for helping him out
He wasn't particularly thrilled, but he was still such a good boy! He is a very handsome cat. I hope you have a long and happy life, Koji! 🥰❤🥰
One thing about shaving a long hair cat - they are suprised the next time they scratch themselves and get bare unprotected skin.
I've had a cat stop and basically go "Oww" when they scratched themself. I told her see that's what it feels like when you scratch a human, but I'm not sure that translated into cat.....
This cat's nails were trimmed.
@@CraftyZanTub It still hurts to be scraped by clipped nails - much less dangerous though. It's a surprise change for the animal.
@@EmilySmirleGURPS Nod
@@EmilySmirleGURPS Happens with humans too. I'm cycling through the year and it's again -30C here so I'm letting my hair grow from the end of summer/autumn till spring is starting and I shave everything off. Multiple times I have even drawn blood with my fingernails after I have shaved my head and I have gone to scratch my head like I could when I still had hair.
Yes, my fingernails are quite thick and they get sharp and are specially sharp after I cut them. I have scratched myself bad many times around my body, hundreds of times in my life.
I have a Siberian kitten (1 year old) and this breaks my heart. They're such sweet little things, very loving and soft. Glad he has an owner that's willing to take on a difficult condition like this
What a sweet and patient boy! He will feel so much better now.
Poor Vanessa, @ 16:41, you were given a very firm,
NO, do not touch the Fun Nuggets! 😂
He's lucky your doing him. You do take such good care of him, and you monitored his stress levels always keeping his health your top concern. He's lucky his owners care so much about him to find him the best care givers for him.
Oh, Koji is a sweet boy. Thank you for being so careful with him. Blessings to his family for loving him and taking such good care of him: people who adopt runts and give them their best lives, knowing they have serious health problems, are heroes.
What a little sweetheart! I was a little nervous about watching, but figured that if anything bad had happened, you wouldn't have shared this video on TH-cam 💗
I think he did a fantastic job staying fairly calm and you did a wonderful job as usual. I think your calming voice helps tremendously!!
He’s a beautiful color. You were so very gentle with him.❤
Aww, what a good, sweet Boi! I hope he has many happy years with his family who so obviously love him. Thank you for giving him such a loving and wonderful home.
Ah bless him! He was a good kitty despite the nerves ❤
He looked like a squirrel sneaking back in his crate. 🐿️
Poor sweet boy! I'm glad he has a loving home.
Oh what a sweet kitty! Beautiful eyes and such soft temperament 💕
So glad this special little one has a responsible owner willing to do the best for their cat. Sad to see the fur go, (if only there were no mats) but he still looks so adorable.❤❤
Oh bless him. He's a beautiful lil guy. I'm glad he has humans who love him.❤
What a beautiful cat, and i like how as a groomer you knew his cat body language..learning so much about how important it is taking care of your pets fur coat..💙🐈🇨🇦🇺🇲💙
I’m so glad her heart did fine all during her shave and visit. What a beautiful baby. 💚💚
He is so brave for letting a stranger flip him over so his belly is exposed :( And he is so well behaved
The heart problems may also be causing the difference in claws' appearance and fur texture.
What a beautiful natured little lad, what a sweetheart. You have an amazing way with animals. Im so glad hes got a loving owner 🇬🇧❣️
I must say the two main reasons I come back to the channel are for the beautiful animals and Vanessa's soothing voice. Love and respect what you do miss Vanessa, keep up the good work.
I love how gentle and thoughtful you are about how each animal is feeling
Ohhhh my fluff, it's my twin 😊I have the same health issues. He's such a beautiful cat❤ I have the static problem too. God bless you Vanessa and all you do. 🙏
What a good kitty he was ❤ I bet he feels a hundred times better now that all the mats are gone! Great job!!
Oh, what a beautiful boy! Hoping and praying for the best, what a little trooper 🙏 💖
🇬🇧What a delightful chap, he was so tolerant despite not liking it very much. Great work as usual Vanessa these cats and dogs know they’re in safe hands! Credit to the owner looking after and loving this gorgeous cat…love his eyes!🐈⬛🐈⬛
What a good, beautiful little boy. He reminds me of my sister’s cat at the vet, clearly not HAPPY about what’s going on but also clearly aware that the humans are there to help. ❤️
He was such a good boy! Koji is absolutely adorable, a total sweet heart. Such a beautiful and cute little boy ❤
What an absolutely beautiful cat! 🤩 And so well taken care of, he is obviously very much loved!
