How To Shave a Cat's Tummy, with Aunt Stacey featuring Jai the Maine Coon
Like 3 Dislike 0 Published on 18 Oct 2015
Aunt Stacey, a professional cat groomer, demonstrates a tummy clip on Jai, a Maine Coon she's groomed since he was a kitten.
You might ask, "Why would you shave a cat's tummy?"
Health and comfort, of course!
A Tummy Clip may aid in the relief of these and other issues:
- Chronic hairballs
- Coat matting
- Sensitive stomach upset
- Obsessive auto-grooming
- Skin infections
Jai is NOT SEDATED. He's just awesome!
Many cats, like Jai featured in this video, comfortably accept being clipped.
However, not all cats are capable of the intimacy and vulnerability required of them for their coat to be safely shaved.
If the cat says “NO!”, then a behavior modification plan is implemented.
Counter conditioning using positive rewards, respectful handling, and patience help to earn the cat's trust and cooperation.
