TICA considers grooming safety to be a top priority for cat owners. Finding a groomer who is properly trained is essential for the health, well-being, and overall comfort of our beloved felines.
Recently the International Professional Groomers, Inc. (IPG) announced a partnership with The Professional Cat Groomers Association or America’s (PCGAA) to offer certification for cat groomers. The program includes a series of three learning tracks – Certified Cat Groomer, Certified Advanced Cat Groomer, and International Certified Master Cat Groomer – that teaches proven techniques and provides stand-alone certification for groomers.
When taking your cat to be groomed, TICA strongly encourages owners to find a groomer who has been certified by IPG and PCGAA certification program. The IPG is one of only three organizations in the United States that certify pet groomers for competency and skill. Their certification program teaches and certifies proven techniques to handle cats gently and get the job done safely and with a happy cat.
