Probable Claws Cat GroomingMy and my cat's first visit to Probable Claws couldn't have been more perfect; the care they provided was such that never has my kittie been so calm, so instantly forgiving after either a vet or grooming experience.

Probable Claws Cat GroomingI am so happy to have found Probable Claws. When I scheduled the appointment, Bob took a bunch of time to explain every detail pertaining to the groom/appointment. They sent progress pics of our boy in the bath!! Our kitty seemed very relaxed and unbothered after his groom and took no time to get back to loafin around the house!
Probable Claws Cat GroomingI really appreciate the time and dedication Bob takes with making sure your animal feels comfortable and safe! He really takes the time to make sure you know all of the information and gives you updates throughout as well! It was an extremely great experience and I will be taking both of my cats back!
Probable Claws Cat GroomingWas the best experience for my cat. She had really bad natting on her back and he was able to shave it off and give her some relief. It was Quick and amazing prices. We will be using them every time we need grooming for our kitties.
