A well-groomed cat is a happy cat.

Quick tip! For shaving those inner cat legs, hold up by the foot instead of closer to the knee. This lets the hair lay naturally and helps tremendously with setting both lion cut leg lines and for the inner leg of sanitary trims.

There’s a reason people leave the BACG Conference fired up, overloaded with notes, and suddenly rethinking half their business.

This isn’t fluff.
It’s real cat grooming education from people actually doing the work.

Where else are you getting seminars like:
🐾 “You’re Fired” → how to get rid of energy-draining clients
🐾 “Feisty Deshed” live demo + Q&A
🐾 Pricing, profit & P&L for cat groomers
🐾 “Am I the Drama?” 😏
🐾 Real-world business growth strategies
🐾 Small group chats with cat groomers who GET IT

And yes…
you can attend live OR binge the recordings later for 3 months.

The Bad Ass Cat Groomer Conference is July 12-14.
The cat groomers leveling up this year will be in that Zoom room.

Will you?

You know the scene.

The cat is twisting.
You’re trying to hold a back leg with one hand, angle the clipper with the other, and somehow create a sanitary trim that doesn’t look like it was done in the dark during an earthquake.

So you keep swiping.
And swiping.
And swiping.

The lines still aren’t straight.
One side is higher than the other.
The cat is getting annoyed.
You’re getting frustrated.
And somehow a “quick sani trim” just turned into a 15-minute wrestling match.

There’s a reason our “2-Minute Sanitary Trim” video is the MOST viewed video on our YouTube channel.

Because almost every groomer struggles with this at first.
You are NOT alone.

The good news?
This is not a “difficult cat” problem.
It’s a technique problem.

Once you learn the proper holds, clipper positioning, and methods for creating clean, symmetrical lines, sanitary trims become FAST. Calm. Predictable.

Less struggling.
Less random clipper swiping.
Better results.

And yes… under 2 minutes is absolutely possible. 🔥
