A cat haircut is not a dog haircut with a smaller client. Cat skin is thinner, coats grow differently, and most cats have firm opinions about being handled. Blush N Paw's feline-experienced groomers do cat haircuts in a calm mobile van at your door — no carrier journey, no barking dogs, no rushing.
Cat haircut styles we do
- Lion cut — body clipped short, mane, legs and tail tip left natural. The classic choice for heavy matting, hot months or heavy shedders.
- Comfort / summer trim — overall shortening that keeps a natural look while cutting down matting and hairballs.
- Hygiene trim — sanitary area, belly and britches tidied; the maintenance cut between full grooms.
- De-matting cut — targeted clipping of matted areas when brushing them out would hurt. Always the humane option over force-combing.
Which cats benefit most
Long-haired breeds — Persians, Maine Coons, Ragdolls, Himalayans — in Dubai's AC-and-heat cycle mat faster than anywhere. A scheduled trim every 6–10 weeks prevents painful matting, cuts hairballs dramatically and keeps senior cats (who under-groom) comfortable.

Frequently asked
How much does a cat haircut cost in Dubai?
Full cat grooming with haircut from AED 249; a standard groom without haircut from AED 189. De-matting from AED 50 where needed — always quoted first.
What is a lion cut and is it safe?
Body clipped short with mane, legs and tail tip left natural. Done properly by a feline-experienced groomer it's safe and often the kindest option for badly matted coats.
Does shaving a cat keep it cooler in Dubai?
Partly — but the bigger benefits are mat prevention and less hairball ingestion. We'll advise whether your cat's coat actually needs it.
Will my cat be sedated?
Never. Patient, low-stress handling only — if a cat is too distressed we stop rather than force it.
How often should a long-haired cat get a haircut?
Every 6–10 weeks for most Persians, Maine Coons and Ragdolls — combined with regular brushing between visits.
