    I tip, but normally we get the full out service (bath, hair trimmed, nails trimmed, etc.) so we do a 15% tip. How much is this...service? ;) If it's $20 I'd tip at least $3.

    Is the groomer the owner? If so, no tip. If not, I'd give $5 on top of the $35.

    We usually tipped when we took Bruno to the groomers.  Now I groom him myself and I don't do nearly a good enough job to warrant a tip.

    This sounds reasonable to me.

    Yes, I'd tip. Our Bassett used to go to the groomer all the time, and we always tipped. Owner or not, I'd throw a few dollars their way.. especially for dealing with a cat! (even more so if kitty is "armed")

    Thanks guys! I will. Groomer is not the owner. Kitty is good but still, it IS a cat! LOL

    I've been thinking about taking Sun to a groomer for awhile. The cat sitter didn't brush her over the holidays and I'm still trying to get out the fur mats. What does $35 get you at a groomers?
