Nimbus has been groomed by Irma at Blue Cat LLC before, but it had been a while since his last visit. She did such a great job with him again. He came home looking so clean, soft, and fluffy, and his coat looked amazing. ❤️
I really appreciate how well Irma handles cats and how comfortable I feel leaving Nimbus…

Amazing experience! She did a great job on my long haired spicy cat. Does my cat hate me now for shaving her? Yes. Is she mat free and soft as a lamb? Also yes.

First time bringing my cat to Irma! She did a wonderful job. I just keep telling my cat how handsome he is. It has been over a week now and Billy is still so soft and smells like shampoo. I definitely will be a repeat customer!

I love Irma at Blue Cat Grooming! She's gentle, skilled, and wonderful with my cats - who always come out looking and smelling gorgeous. The Blue Cat space itself is very cute and shows how much love and care Irma puts into her work.

I love Blue Cat Grooming because of it's calm vibe. Irma has the gentlest heart and gives the best lion cuts!

I really appreciate how well Irma handles cats and how comfortable I feel leaving Nimbus with her. He wasn’t overly stressed afterward, which I always pay attention to with grooming. You can tell she really knows cats and takes her time with them.
Definitely happy to be bringing Nimbus back to her again, and I would absolutely recommend Irma at Blue Cat LLC to anyone looking for a cat groomer.😸

My cat is chunky and has trouble bathing herself, blue cat grooming did a great job making sure her fur was clean, degreased, deshedded and her sanitary area shaved so that nothing sticks to her fur when she uses the litter box. Excellent job, would definitely recommend

I can’t say enough about how impressive Irma is with my 9 year old cat Rhonda. I sadly had to wait too long since her last appt so this was not just a touch up. I chose to have her do a lion cut and I swear my old gal seems 5 year younger. I won’t ever take my cat anywhere else 💕
