Solves“Every shedding season I squeeze coated cats in wherever they fit, run over, and end up doing unplanned de-mats for free.”
WorthA shed-out service priced from your own timed appointments, so the same predictable surge pays for the extra table time.

What’s inside

  • How to find your own shedding windows from two years of calendar and phone records
  • A shed-out scope, a "not included" list, and a de-mat threshold you set in advance
  • The timing method that turns extra table minutes into a price, with a worked composite
  • Scripts for "isn’t this just a bath?", the hairball question, and the cat who hates the dryer
