Is It Time for a Trim?

Are kitty’s nails a little too long and catching on their blanket, their bed … or your skin? We have two nail trim events each month to help tame those “murder mittens.”

Every 2nd Sunday of the month is our drive-up nail trim event, held at the shelter. (These drive-up nail trim events are for previous PCR adopters ONLY.)

Every 4th Sunday of the month is our nail trim event, held at Thomas’ Tails in Crystal Lake. All animals are welcome—cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, hedgehogs, bearded dragons, etc. (These nail trim events are open to the public.)

Drive-Up Nail Trim Events at Purrfect Cat Rescue

How It Works
Drive up by the front shelter door. We will come out to your car and bring your kitty inside. EACH KITTY MUST BE IN A SEPARATE CARRIER. We will trim kitty’s nails inside, then return kitty to you at your car.

How It Works
Dogs’ nail are trimmed outside the store on the front porch. Line up with your dog(s) on the sidewalk outside. ALL DOGS MUST BE ON A LEASH. If there are two nail trimmers, there will be a nail trim station set up on both sides of the porch. If there is only one trimmer available, nail trims will be on the right side of the porch only. Cats’ (and other small pets’) nails are trimmed in a room at the back of the store. (There is a separate back entrance for cats / small pets.) ALL CATS MUST BE IN CARRIERS.

There is street parking available in the front of the store, and there is a customer parking lot behind the building. Cash or Zelle payments accepted. WE DO NOT ACCEPT CREDIT CARD, APPLE PAY, OR VENMO AT THESE EVENTS. All
