23-pound Maine Coon receives a teddy bear haircut and a blow-dry (video)

This is a cross post because I think that it is a good video and I don't see enough good videos. It's about a pet groomer who has a TikTok account. Judging by what she does in the video I think that she is a good pet groomer. She is considerate and you can tell that she has done a lot of this because she moves quickly and efficiently.

Her Maine Coon client is a 23-pound cat whose owner wants a teddy bear haircut and a blow dry. They also want his stud tail treated. Stud tail is a greasy patch at the base of the tail which needs to be regularly washed with medicated shampoo as you see in the video and you can add cornstarch or baby powder to keep it down and stop it becoming too greasy. It won't go away so you've got to treat the condition all the time.

Note: This is an embedded video from another website. Sometimes they are deleted at source or the video is turned into a link which stops it working here. I have no control over this.


It is similar to acne in that it is an overproduction of oils from the sebaceous glands. It causes an accumulation of a waxy brown material. In severe cases hair follicles can become infected and the hair might become matted. It might smell rancid. You might like to talk to your veterinarian about it.

Clearly, in the past, this Maine Coon has objected to some of the treatment that he has received from this groomer because she places on his head a rather odd device which conclusively stops him biting her 😎. He gets a full cut and blow dry and you can see the end result, which is a teddy bear haircut. This appears to be a less extreme version of the lion cut.

These sorts of haircut can be useful because they reduce matting although they aren't obligatory, of course. You can keep matting down by daily combing of your Maine Coon. They will need a lot of grooming because of their shaggy fur which can become matted.
