What The Pet Affaire says
In their own words, from thepetaffaire.com, read October 9, 2026.
- Nervous or anxious pets
From shy rescues to high-energy pups, we meet every pet exactly where they are.
- Calm, low-stress setting · Grooms cats
A calm, low-stress experience for felines - gentle lion cut on request, careful mat removal, soothing bath if needed, nails, and ears.
- One pet at a time
Calm rooms, slow handling, and one pet at a time so cats and dogs feel safe - not stressed.
- Hand scissoring
Scissor finishing on every cut, a real eye for line and proportion, and the patience to do it right - because grooming, done well, is an art form.

Between grooms
The basics for the weeks in between. Picked by PawsRx, not recommended by The Pet Affaire.

Cat brushes
Long-haired cats mat first behind the ears, under the legs and on the belly. Short, frequent sessions tend to go better than one long one.

Cat nail clippers
A cat's claws retract, so you press the toe pad gently to bring the claw out before you trim the tip.
