I have two long haired cats, whose hair is so long, it drags on the ground below their bellies. As a result, they leave stands of hair everywhere and cough up a lot of hairballs. So they are groomed on a regular basis. My new vet recommed Elizabeth to groom our cats. She came to me and let me watch the entire process. One of my cats was easy and the other was ornery. I was impressed how Elizabeth handled the difficult one. They both look great and they are running around as if they feel better. Nice experience.
