On the subject of Howdy: Unbelievably, I have never fostered a long-haired cat! Several medium-haired cats, but never one with fur as thick as Howdy. He has a lot of matts on his belly and he gets distressed and upset if I try to groom him thoroughly. I believe I need the help of a professional to do some trimming, grooming, and maybe shave a little off the back so the poop does not get in the hair.
Can anyone recommend a groomer in the south city or central metro area? One who would be reasonably priced, good with a senior cat, gentle, etc. I would like to get Howdy groomed on Friday so that he can go to the weekend adoption event looking good.
Thanks!
