How much does cat grooming cost in San Diego?

How often should I get my cat groomed?
Most cats benefit from professional grooming every 4–6 weeks, though it depends on breed and coat type. Long-haired breeds like Persians and Maine Coons usually need a groom every 4 weeks to keep mats from forming; short-haired cats can stretch to 6–8 weeks. Regular grooming reduces shedding, prevents painful matting, and catches skin issues early.
