Here’s an item that I think needs to be in every kitty’s stocking this holiday! The Groom Genie is actually playing a very special role in our home these days. My precious Ando is having kidney issues and he needs to get fluids every other day (he’s doing great with the fluids and other meds and he actually looks very good!) Ando LOVES the Groom Genie SO MUCH, he always comes running when we bring it out, so we have a little routine. We give him some brushes with the Groom Genie then we put him on a little shelf where we administer the fluids and one of us brushes him while the other holds the fluid bag. He purrs while he gets his treatment and then we give him lots of brushing after. It makes administering fluids much more bearable for all of us.
The Groom Genie is such an important part of the process, I don’t know what we’d do without it. He must love the way it makes him feel, plus it seems to calm him. We make sure to brush him at other times when he’s not getting fluids so he doesn’t just associate it with the treatment, so instead he sees it as a great thing. I can’t recommend this little tool enough! We use the Teeny Groom Genie, it’s the best size for cats.

Don’t forget, if you go to the Groom Genie website and sign up for their newsletter (link on left side of home page) you’ll get a coupon for $5 off!
Is yours a Groom Genie or a Teeny Groom Genie? The website does not give dimensions for either. It just says the teeny is 20% smaller.
Ando is very lucky to be getting such good care! My two black cats & I wish him the best!
The Teeny is the best size for cats!
Our kidney-failure kitty got his favorite treat (bites of chicken) after every Juicing. After a few weeks of these sessions, he he would come to the room where we did it when he heard us filling the sink with warm water to heat up the bag, waiting patiently through the process for his treat. Thanks for the Groom Genie recommendations!
I got this last time it was on the site for my cat Leo, who doesn’t like to groom himself and hated being brushed. And now I have a routine at the end of the day where Leo runs to the spot I keep the brush and waits to be groomed! No more mats on him and he is happy! A win-win. I did get the smaller size and it is perfect for cats – Leo is a 20 pounder and it works well for him.
Wow! This looks great!! I just ordered my first Teeny Groom Genie. Thanks for the tip on the $5 off. I can’t wait for it to show up on my doorstep!!
This does look like a must-have! AWWWW, Ando. You know he’s a favorite of mine. All the best, *PRAYERS* and healing thoughts of wellbeing for him. We’ve been there before, with our little Moti, so I know what it’s like. (^^)
