Honestly, the way her tail was twitching I half expected her to try to deface you the moment she got wet. The fact you made it that long before kitty went boom is remarkable.
I love the natural sad eyes. All a part of her deceptive attack maneuvers. As for the bubble, well... You call it the bubble, Ivy calls it the Thunderdome.
I recently saw a video of a cat slipping through a cat flap barely bigger than a key hole, maybe 2x2 inches. This hole was like a wide open gate to Ivy!
@@apples_and_oranges yep, cats can fit through almost anything their head can fit through. And no, this isn't because they "have no collar bones", as the rumor says. They definitely have them!
I was expecting Ivy at any moment to put on her little hat, pull out her sword and say something really inappropriate, but instead she just attacked you! BTW, That Crate Dryer is Genius. 👏😻❤
Her coat is so unique! I’ve never seen a British shorthair with that coloration. I’m always a sucker for orange cats, but this one is especially beautiful. She almost looks like a painting
I just got an equigroomer after watching you use it on cats and dogs, and this thing is amazing. Cat loves it, and I think I have brushed and entire cat out of her since last night lol
Now we totally need GwtD's merch with Ivy's picture and slogan that says, "Give me trouble. Get the bubble." I totally feel like this about some people. I can't be the only one.
her little face is cracking me up, she has this perpetual expression of "why would you DO this :(" lol. she's absolutely adorable 😍 and absolutely hilarious in the little spaceman helmet
My God this cat is beautiful! Her golden fur and Jade green eyes. She almost looks like an anime character. Lucky person who ever owns her. I’ve seen lots of British shorthairs but never one with this coloring. Absolutely gorgeous ❤
The way her tail kept flicking back and forth reminded me of how humans tap their fingers when they're becoming very impatient with something. And, when she growled she didn't really strike out to harm you, at least it didn't seem like it from this angle. She did look gorgeous after her grooming!
@@okinawa1312 I know what you mean but she actually has a range of behavioral choices. Her dominant disposition could have been, for example, angry, unfazed or contented. If you watch Vanessa's other cat grooming vlogs you'll see what a difference there can be. :)
Your reflexes with cats are good lol I immediately said to myself...oh damn good thing she's got such good reaction time ahaha you obviously are amazing at your job so im not surprised..what a beautiful cat this episode
Two suggestions from a lifelong cat person. I've noticed you call dogs by their names but generally call all the cats "cat" or "kitty." Actually, cats often DO respond to their names, even if they are not as obedient as dogs LOL. It might help to use their names! Also, I've had a cat professionally groomed using a high velocity dryer like yours, and it really scared her, which worried me. When that same kitty got very old, I began regularly bathing her myself. What I found is that using first a soft, warm towel, and then a regular hair dryer on low velocity worked great. I turned the heat to a higher setting and she LOVED that, while less noise and lower "blowing" kept her from being scared. Sometimes I'd gently brush her while I used the hair dryer. It took a few minutes longer but worked out much better. She even began to welcome getting bathed and dried.
That's true. My cats have always responded to their names, however little it may have been. My cats also calmed down easier when I called them by their names.
My mom's cat responds to her name. My cat does too, she is very afraid of strangers so I have no idea how she would react to someone else saying it though. And of course they don't have the trained "come here" reaction that dogs do. But my mom's cat does sometimes.
My cat does respond to his name...... well it would be more accurate to say he responds to the names I call him that would get this comment insta-blocked.
Oh she is so cute.... Until she decided that flicking her tail isn't working and she is just going to seriously let you know she is not happy!! Thank you for letting us see Ivy, you just want to pick her up for a cuddle....
As someone suggested, that’s a great new merch idea! The title on shirts, though I’d suggest ‘Gimme trouble-you get the bubble” or even ‘Gimme trouble-get the bubble!’ as a more smoothly worded phrase. And use this cat in the bubble as the cartoon 😂
I have this breed. The shedding is out of this world. Have already felted a mini-me from it, now saving for a sweater. Last year I brought in a trimmer for the first time. Dit not go well. She bit me (cat bit me, not trimmer) and we could not finish the session. So now I just bribe her with food so I can brush her a bit every day. They are so calm and friendly until they decide they are DONE.
Oh no, poor thing! 😿 Well, that's obviously one of the occasions where there's no way around bathing the cat. But watching this video I couldn't help but think, "Why does this young, healthy cat, that obviously cleans itself well (the georgous looking and feeling coat is proof) need a bath?" Cat's don't have BO like dogs do. Why put her through this stress? Just to be on YT?
@@eva-w you don’t know why a cat may need grooming. She could be difficult when it comes to nail clipping. She may react badly to brushing. She may be shedding too much for the owners to handle and deshedding shampoo will help. A myriad of reasons that don’t need your approval. 😊
We've had 3 British Shorthairs. All adorable. We were told that they don't shed much but 2 out of the 3 certainly did! In general very laid back cats but this one made it obvious, with the tail thumping, that she was not happy!
Are you sure Ivy didn't escape from Shreck??? Her eyes are "those eyes"! And what a temper!! Haha! Thank you for sharing videos as well as you knowledge. Where I live, we haven't got groomers like you and I must groom my recue ones by myself (10 dogs, 6 cats, different sizes and temperaments), so I learn a lot and I can say this summer, they are looking much better than years before! If at any point I'm able to buy something from "the outside", I'm nuts about your shampoos, the noosel and de equigromer!!!! (I love in Argentina, so our currency is reeeeaaaly devaluated and besides, we are not allowed to buy in USA dollars, or any dollars! 😕) Anyway, I enjoy and learn a lot from you, so thank you again. 💛🐾🐾🌻
Russian Blues are first, these guys are second. I'll always remember the Russian Blue we had from 2003 to 2014 fondly. He passed, at 23, having spent his last decade with my grandfather who spoiled him absolutely rotten. He was turned into a shelter at 12, and my grandfather decided he could handle three cats at the time, just until the old guy passed... he outlived his two four year old sisters. (We were told the last owner died. He wasn't just dumped because of his age.)
Today I will be grooming a black domestic shorthair cat. This cat was recently hit by a car, and resurrected by being placed in an ancient burial ground. The owners have asked me to use my strongest shampoo, as they have tried bathing him, but can't seem to get the smell of sour earth out of his fur. This cat was very lethargic during his bath. At times, it felt like I was washing a piece of meat. As you can see here, his eyes sometimes glow. This is one of the byproducts of being resurrected in a burial ground. Crossing an ancient barrier to resurrect a recently deceased pet is something I cannot recommend. It tends to not end well for you or your loved ones, and with animal shelters receiving countless unwanted animals every day, I would recommend adoption instead.
Such a sweet kitty, but she was definitely telling you she wasn't there voluntarily. Her body language was pretty much screaming "I'm stressed out as heck." Poor gal :(
I love the cameraman's very gentle "nooo" to the life threatening terroristic attack.
I would be out the door.
ok
Some people are braver than the rest of us. I feel you.
Maybe it was the owner.
@@bluerisk No, prett, sure it's the cameraman and also her boyfriend, I think
“….If you’re going to give me trouble, then I’m going to give you the bubble.” Hahaha new mantra for Girl With the Dogs. 😂😊🙌
this needs to be merch
@@jadambi a suggestion: t-shirt merch for the pet parents!
Shirt merch coming in hot on that phrase.
Yes, but shorten it to ‘Gimme trouble, you get the bubble!’ as she posted in the title. It works better.
@@glengamble526 Indeed. I'd buy that shirt.
I like when the dude is petting her at the beginning and he is exclaiming "kitty cat! You're already so softtttt!" hahahaa that was cute
And the cat was like "oh yeah? watch me with the blowdryer and the comb"
hahaha i thought that was super cute too
"I know right? I have no clue why I'm here."
British short hairs always look very soft IME. I have never actually met one but I've seen a number of photos and videos.
I just adopted two senior British shorthair cats and I can confirm they're INCREDIBLY soft, they have really thick plushy fur!
Ivy's face while you were washing her was like, "I can't believe this is happening to me! :( "
I picked that up. Ivy had a previous engagement.
To be fair, I think "I can't believe this is happening to me" is Ivy's resting face expression.
@@CM-ss5pe "Oh the pure terror of existence, how could it ever happen to me?"
"I made my mistakes...got no where to run..." 😅
That puzzled & sad little face....so kissable 😁
Is it just me or the cameraman did an extra good job with Ivy? My dude was giving us some cinematic views of her fur 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for 👆👆👆watching and
Commenting give me a message l have a fantastic for you🌷
Not just you! He really did do a great job highlighting this very pretty kitty!
Yeah, gorgeous ticked fur.
Honestly, the way her tail was twitching I half expected her to try to deface you the moment she got wet. The fact you made it that long before kitty went boom is remarkable.
Yep, along with ears flattened back and huuuuuuge iris'. Was waiting the whole video for the explosion.
The tail twitching was the 1st clue, my cat does the same when she's getting ready to attack.
Often a kitty simply loses patience with being restrained or confined at a moment when she would prefer to run away and hide.
She was a very patient girl, but when cats have had enough they'll make it very clear that you should fluff off.
I was thinking the same thing! I was shocked it didn't happen sooner.
I love the natural sad eyes. All a part of her deceptive attack maneuvers. As for the bubble, well... You call it the bubble, Ivy calls it the Thunderdome.
The way she figured out the holes were big enough to fit through and tried to make her escape! 😂
Clever little girl.
Ivy: "You can not contain my rage!"
I recently saw a video of a cat slipping through a cat flap barely bigger than a key hole, maybe 2x2 inches. This hole was like a wide open gate to Ivy!
@@apples_and_oranges yep, cats can fit through almost anything their head can fit through. And no, this isn't because they "have no collar bones", as the rumor says. They definitely have them!
@@Ellisepha As the saying goes from a not-cat owner, but I have witnessed with my own eyes, cats are liquid
She looks like her best friend is going through a really tough time and she feels really bad for them.
She looks like when you hear your BFF is getting back with their ex…AGAIN.
I think it's her that's going through the tough time! 😄

She has facial expressions like a human being.

@@DianaMoon11428 i mean cats are one of the animals that have veeeery expressive faces
If looks could kill but make you feel warm & fuzzy inside at the same time, Ivy went through the whole 5 stages of grief twice 😂
🤣 Yeah, kinda! 🤣
Make it six stages.
6 Being *REVENGE.*
oh man, she hated every minute of that 😆 what a precious thing
I was expecting Ivy at any moment to put on her little hat, pull out her sword and say something really inappropriate, but instead she just attacked you! BTW, That Crate Dryer is Genius. 👏😻❤
Pray for mercy from Ivy... in Boots! 🤣
Girl gave zero warnings lmao
BAAH HAA HAA!
Ivy's face is so precious it's hard to believe she would be fiesty she's so fricking adorable 🥰
Her little face when you started her bath was so sad and so adorable.
Her coat is so unique! I’ve never seen a British shorthair with that coloration. I’m always a sucker for orange cats, but this one is especially beautiful. She almost looks like a painting
Ivy is a beautiful cat! Her face is so expressive! and... the strike was very unexpected! She is fast. and KIT is the cutest dufus!

This cat was incredibly patient and I’m honestly surprised she only attacked once.

Everyone is talking about the cat. But... I LOVE 'Kit the Apparent Doofus'! What a great breed! This made my day. Greetings from Cape Cod.
