Groomers in Salem, IL

Salem has four grooming salons, the 2nd largest choice in Marion County, where Centralia accounts for 6 on its own. That is a small enough choice that it is worth ringing round before you settle. Ask specifically whether they take cats and whether they will handle a coat that has already matted, because those two answers vary more between salons than anything else. None of them list a website, so this is a phone call rather than an online booking, which is normal for the trade and no reflection on the work.

If nothing here suits, the nearest larger choice is Centralia, about 13 miles away, with 6 salons. Worth the drive for a first appointment with a difficult coat, less so for a routine tidy up every six weeks.

The most comfortable grooming weather of the year and the best time to get a neglected coat back under control before winter closes in. Coats thicken from now on and everything gets harder.
