he seems so defeated in the cone of shame like "well, shit, the human wins this time..."

The cat in the cone: "I can't believe you've done this.'"

"And I put his royal highness in the cone of shame." That's pure gold!

That cat is STILL 99% calmer than any cat I’ve tried to bathe 😂

"He looks defeated... and royally pissed off." I bust out laughing.

His face in the cone is like "Well played Katherine. Well played."

We had a Maine Coon mix. Out of the dozens of cats we raised lovingly over decades, I can safely say he was the sweetest, most sympathetic animal I've known. Barely vocalized, very mild and super affectionate. He comforted us in hard times, and would come running if he heard either of us crying/being emotional. Wonderful cat, best cat. Gentle giant indeed.

I love how patient he is - and that he constantly tries to correct the grooming work with his tongue. 😁

_He looks defeated and royally pissed off._ _He is giving me the ultimate death stare and is most certainly plotting my demise._

i love how even the most violent pets get like "strawberry jam bubblegum" cologne or whatever at the end

Love the commentary. "He makes his protests known". I have two very similar to him that are even both grey and they are the dogs of the cat world. They are so incredibly loyal and follow you room to room, but they have very unique personalities. They do actually play in water unlike many other cats. Commentary was spot on.

I have a 23lb Maine. I bathe her myself monthly (as needed), but most importantly she is combed and brushed daily. She is never matted. Since this has been her routine since 9 weeks old (she now is 16 years old), her coat is spectacular, her purrsonality remains regal and pampered.

I love that he starts licking himself as if he’s saying “I can do better”

Love that he starts grooming himself as she brushes him out lol like, "You did this ALL wrong, human."

I can't believe how much this boy looks SO, SOOO much like my missing (believed to be stolen boy)... I studied the video so closely for my boy's pattern before seeing this video was from a yr ago, my boy only went missing in October. I also saw a post that this guy is now missing presumed stolen as well.. my condolences to his family as I know how this feels & will hold out hope for both of our boys' safe return...😢❤

I love this lady and how she explains everything with her distinctive way.

You know he feels extraordinarily better afterwards but will never admit it.

The cat in the happy hoodie: "i'm peeing on everything before I leave"

Hardly an attack lmao. He was quite the gentlecat and did very well for his first grooming.

I loved how you just gently pushed his head out of the way after he tried getting you that last time.

“Because cats are notorious for trying to permanently disfigure you.” So many gems given to us by this lady.

the way he licked himself like “ no no no you did it all wrong , THIS is how you do it . do you see ?! “

You are amazing! So in tune with even the subtle (& not so subtle!) nuances of the cat. I also love how you explain his feelings about the process. You really do understand & it's awesome to watch/listen to you. Thank you! As the human mama to 7 rescue kitties, eho are all SO different, I can totally appreciate your natural talent & skills... + learn more from you.

I own a half Maine Coon... as for the "as close to a dog as you can get in cat form" thats terrifyingly true... he is more of a dog than my Husky lab mix is. he is 20lbs (not overweight) and refuses to play at all ever unless I throw a tiny ball he can go retrieve for me... ... seriously. He is the most cuddlie cat I have ever owned, seen, or even heard of, as if he could he would sit in my lap and never, ever, leave... he cuddles with me all night usually near my feet (a dangerous place in my case) but sometimes he takes the easy route and comes up and cuddles in my armpit while my arm is extended holding my head at the perfect level... this usually wakes me up at some point as I choke on that signature long coat you see here... He is the single best cat I have ever owned, he is 9 and I am glad cats are long lived because it gives me time to figure out what I will do when he goes as I do not know if I have ever been so emotionally attached and entangled with anyone in my entire life (including my parents and siblings yes.)

I shouldn't be laughing, he looks so miserable in the cone of shame and then when she's drying him off with that lil towel on his head, looking like a little babushka 😭.

I’m terribly impressed with this felines behavior and tolerance

I love how nonchalant you are when he hisses at 3:20. You just push his face away and he's got this look in his eyes that is like "Oh. Well. Okay then."

My elderly Maine Coon cat has a rug on the kitchen floor. He sits there daily in expectation of being combed. It is part of the daily ritual after breakfast. He has always had too much fur to take care of it himself, and now, that he is close to 15, I think he relies on me for most of his grooming. As the groomer said, they do mat under the arms and on the belly and this can happen pretty quickly. His brother, who is no longer with us, had belly fur that I can only compare to sheep wool with a laye of longer strands of silky fur over top. It was really odd and matted super easily. He was the most gorgeous cat I had ever seen and he may have been stolen.

*Puts cone of shame on Jaxton* Jaxton: *My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined.*

For anyone curious, cutting a cat's nails is not only safe, for indoor cars it can be a necessity. Their nails can grow into their paw pads, and older cats are not good at removing the dead parts of their nails, which can lead to infection. Declawing, on the other hand, is a permanently disfiguring procedure where the first joint of each digit of the paw is completely removed. It's the equivalent of having each of your fingers cut off beyond the first knuckle. Declawing can lead to early onset arthritis in cats and make them more aggressive because their main defense tactic has been taken away. Please cut your cat's nails, but don't declaw!

Your commentary during the treatment is spot on !

was looking through the insta comments of his missing post and really sad to hear as of 6 days ago from his owner that he still isn’t home :(

Despite some of the commentary, this kitty is 99% more tolerant than any other cat I've owned. He's actually a really good cat.

Matting is when there are 2 or more Matthews in an area.

"so I put his royal highness in the cone of shame"

Jackson looks like a million bucks! I love that you're so patient with them. 💖💖💖

The owner sounds just flabbergasted: "Did you wash him?" Like "and you live?" LOL

Jaxon when being groomed: I hate it here Jaxon on the bench: Let me model my fresh cut

I love your channel (especially the funny sentences that you say during grooming cats 😀)!

2:20 you have just made me lol at your comment and the look on "Jackson's face" Absolutely Beautiful Soul's. Kindest thoughts to all and your families and Furbabies from Australia xx 🐕🐱🐈🐾🐾

I am not afraid to admit it: I am 100% obsessed with this channel.

"he looks defeated and royally pissed off" Cat: *slow blink*

The cone of shame! We had to do this to take care of an abscess on one of our meezers. Of course, it was sore, so any time we had to touch it, he got very bitey. We learned fast that he couldn't actually bite us if he was wearing the cone. So we put it on, shaved the base of his tail (where the abscess was, so we could actually see it through all the fluff) and did what we needed to do. He recovered quickly and is fine now.

I just love your commentary during your videos. You are so funny!

He's extremely well behaved, especially considering he wasn't actually tied down in any way.

Despite him striking at her, he was surprisingly VERY patient.

Love your commentary while grooming cats, hilarious!

Your narration makes me LOL every single time! It’s clear how much you adore animals 💖

I love how the owner comes in and is like “how did our monster do?”😂😂😂😂

Cat: hisses Her: gently pushes cone away “You have no power here”😂

Most certainly plotting my demise 😜 that ma'am was a very good one keep entertaining the world U r doing an exceptional job at it so....👍🏻

haha, "he looks defeated and royally pissed off" --your comments are pure gold!

He just starts licking himself like.. "I have to do EVERYTHING for you people"

I love his grooming himself at the end-- clearly she didn't do it exactly right and he has to fix it.

WOW. That is one calm cat. I have had cats my entire life and I have never seen one this calm when being groomed. In my experience running water = flying cat. And a hairdryer is a spawn from hell that is the main enemy to be destroyed and thus a towel burrito and slow drying is the way to go. I didn't know there were cats with such mild tempers. I kinda want a maine coon now.

What a beauty! You handled him well… He’s a real king! Gorgeous❤😊

As a servant/custodian of multiple cats, I have to say this was not an aggressive one at all. From a cat perspective he was quite tolerant and put up with a lot before he started to protest. And he is absolutely gorgeous.

"he is pulling his ears back. which means he is an angry cat" 5 seconds pass The cat: That brush feels wonderful, you are fully forgiven

Oh my, you had me laughing at the 'cone of shame'. I had to get up and get that fit of laughter out of the way to finish the vid.. Thank you for that. Liked and subbed.

Had an orange and white coone, he was the best, friendliest, most affectionate boy. Never knew this teeny kitten would grow to the size of a St Bernard, but he was still a great cat and I miss him.

Cone of shamed, embarrassing for such a proud animal.

"He's giving me the ultimate death stare and is most certainly plotting my demise" -- That's the most "cat like" thing I'ever heard 😹

My groomer says my two Himalayan males are the most docile and gentle cats of all her customers. I've always been gentle, spoken softly, and never fought with them.

It is so respectful of you to let the pet owners how the grooming went! Plus you are filming. Wish you were in Quebec ✌🏼🕊️🍑

Woman: *Shaves nuts* Cat: Hmm a massage. Woman: *Shaves armpits* Cat: Unnacceptable! 👿 😂😂😂

Cat: bites Groomer: * cone of shame* Cat: wait that’s illegal

I had a Maine Coon mix. He had quite the personality and was such a love bug. One of his most notable quirks was that he loved the water. He would sleep in the bathroom sink and if you turned the water on he would only move a little so it wasn't spraying directly on him. If we wanted him out of the sink we had to manually evict him.

As cats go, he did indeed seem pretty tolerant. I did love how he was rearranging his fur while you were drying him. ‘(Bleep) hooman makin’ me restyle tha fur.’

Trimming a cats claws is perfectly safe and doesn’t harm the cat at all if you avoid the quick, which is the pink part. Declawing a cat is amputating part of a cats finger at the first knuckle. It’s inhumane and cruel

What a GOOD kitty! You can tell his owners handle him a lot.

When a cat says, "Stop messing with my groin," get out the cone or lose a thumb.

You insulted this cat in every conceivable way.

Comments she made about the cat that I liked and made me laugh: "Cats like to perfemently disfigure you" "When I ignored the kings orders he got a bit more feisty so I put his royal highness in the cone of shame" "He is most certainly plotting my demise."

"He looks defeated and royally pissed off..."😄

He’s a lovely boy for a first groom isn’t he? Beautiful cat ❤️

I love the way he starts grooming himself after being dried. I can clearly hear him thinking "stupid woman is doing this all wrong. Do I have to demonstrate everything?". Lol

“This is Jackson Sonic. He is an absolute unit.” Enough said.

Your comments and observations are so funny and cute! Lol

Your narration is hilarious. 🤣Thank you.

He’s only a year old but holy is he a big boy! And he’s not even full grown yet! God, I love Mainecoons

I'm shocked that he did not sing you the song of his people during his bath. Maine Coon's are normally very chatty and mine is very much a drama queen about being bathed.

Cone of shame! Happy Hoodie! 🤣

That’s one chill cat! I get those swipes even when I’m not grooming a cat 😄

"pretty tolerant" is a huge understatement.

“And he is most certainly plotting my demise” yeah that checks out.

I love your sense of humour, The cat is just an extra 😂

People are really so out of touch that they think TRIMMING a cat's nails is like declawing them? Jeez. Also, I still can't get over how enormous Maine Coons are.

I love how when he starts hissing she just pushes the cone away 😂 His face just says "well shit" and it's amazing

Satellite ears.😻 Their ears swivel around, and it always makes me smile.

He was pretty relaxed really.

"If you notice, he is pulling his ears back, which he is an angry cat. I don't care. I have a job to do." 🤣🤣

Such a tolerant cat! One of my cats bit straight through the cone of shame, the other had the vet calling me after ten minutes saying "she's actively trying to murder us, do I have your permission to sedate her?"

He is absolutely beautiful! Thank you for the veiwing.

I just wanted to say you're doing an excelent job! I'm a former Maine coon cattery owner and I know how hard it can be to work with those cats sometimes. They have fur that easly gets matted and grooming them is a task for two people at least sometimes! This cat is extremely calm and well behaved and this shows how great you are at what you're doing!

"So I put his royal highness in the cone of shame. He looks defeated and royally pissed off." 😂

2:55 Jaxon: "lady you don't know what you're doing, here's how a real cat groomer works" Jaxon: lick lick lick

My Maine would let me know when a nail trim was due, he loved taking tubbies and was ok with a hair dryer. All 36 lbs of him. Never bit me, scratched me....best ca-dog ever!!!

I love how you truly explain how they act. I own Barbara's Gentle Grooming in Espanola, New Mexico. I have been Grooming for 16 yrs. I have seen so much. Thanks Barb

I loved the cone of shame cut. His little face looked like “crap, I messed up”

He is absolutely gorgeous. You did a fantastic job grooming him.
