Matted fur can be painful, pulling on the skin and causing irritation or infection. At South Fraser Animal Hospital, our team handles feline dematting with care and patience, always prioritizing your cat’s comfort. Whether under light sedation or gentle restraint, we remove mats safely—helping your cat feel lighter, cleaner, and free from discomfort that may have built up quietly.
For cats with severe matting or thick coats, a sedated lion shave can provide both relief and a fresh start. At South Fraser Animal Hospital, we perform this grooming procedure with a focus on safety and gentle handling. Sedation ensures your cat remains calm and stress- free, especially if touch or grooming has become overwhelming or painful.
Some cats find nail trims too stressful to tolerate while awake. At South Fraser Animal Hospital, we offer sedated nail trims for those who need a calmer, safer experience. Whether your cat is fearful, reactive, or unable to be handled comfortably, sedation allows us to provide essential paw care without trauma—for both the cat and their guardian.
