No good deed goes unpunished

The video begins with the groomer preparing to groom two extremely matted cats named George and Lucifer. The groomer expresses hope that Lucifer will be manageable and shares the anticipation of their transformation. The groomer attempts to bribe Lucifer with a treat but is unsuccessful. It is noted that Lucifer is matted, particularly on his back, but not obese, which is surprising as it should allow him to groom himself. The video also mentions that the cats were brought in for an emergency groom by someone other than their owner, possibly due to the owner's illness. The groomer emphasizes the importance of kindness and understanding in such situations and starts the grooming process by removing the worst of Lucifer's matting, which comes off smoothly.

The groomer continues to work on Lucifer, noting that there are no fleas present and expressing relief. The groomer decides to use a 'happy hoodie' to calm Lucifer and attempts to clip his nails, despite being warned that he may not like it. The video script also includes personal commentary from the groomer, who mentions feeling sick but deciding to proceed with the grooming sessions due to the urgency of the cats' condition. The groomer discusses the challenges of filming and grooming simultaneously and the limitations it presents in terms of camera angles and lighting. The session ends with Lucifer being bathed, with the groomer commending his sweet and calm demeanor throughout the process.

The groomer transitions to grooming George, who is in worse shape than Lucifer, and anticipates a more challenging session. The groomer ponders why both cats are so matted despite living together, as they typically groom each other. The use of a 'happy hoodie' on George is described, which helps to calm him, and the groomer decides to proceed with shaving George's matted fur. The groomer addresses comments from viewers about using scissors first to cut the matted hair, explaining the risks and why it's not recommended. The groomer expresses relief that the grooming of George is going well and emphasizes the importance of professional grooming for severely matted cats.

The groomer describes George's reaction to having his matting removed, suggesting that it relieves his itchiness. The groomer attempts to clip George's nails before shaving his legs and acknowledges the necessity of nail trimming for indoor cats. The session continues with George being bathed, which goes better than expected. The groomer notes George's increased comfort level after the bath and proceeds to dry him in a crate. The groomer also decides to shave George's tail due to it being matted and smelling of urine.

The groomer finishes grooming Lucifer and moves on to George, who is more skittish and active. The groomer decides to keep George in the 'happy hoodie' to minimize movement and completes the haircut. The groomer notes that George's legs are not completely dry due to his aversion to having them touched. The groomer also addresses the presence of some remaining matting and the decision to shave George's tail to remove urine smell. The video concludes with the groomer expressing surprise at the cats' calm behavior throughout the grooming process and not requiring the use of a muzzle. The total grooming time for both cats is stated to be 2 hours and 45 minutes.

The video script concludes with the groomer summarizing the grooming process, stating that while the cats are not perfect, they are now free of matting and are clean.
