Pet Grooming Trends in 2025: What’s New and Why It Matters

Seen the hilarious videos of cats joining in for Suhoor during Ramadan? It seems our furry friends don’t want to miss anything, even a pre-dawn meal! Our furry friends are sensitive to our routines and any changes in them, like Ramadan. Just as we emphasise cleanliness for ourselves during Ramadan, keeping our pets clean is also important. You might not think pet grooming changes much, but like anything, it does evolve as we do. In today’s article, we’ll take a closer look at key pet grooming trends for 2025 and how to adapt your pet care during Ramadan, to keep your pet happy, healthy, and looking their best.

Top Pet Grooming Trends in 2025

At Pawsitive Vet Clinic, pet grooming is about more than just aesthetics; it’s an integral part of your pet’s overall well-being.

Regular grooming sessions offer an opportunity to check for any abnormalities, lumps, bumps, or skin irritations that might otherwise go unnoticed. Catching these issues early can lead to prompt treatment and better health outcomes for your furry friend.

  • Natural & sustainable: We also see a growing demand for natural and sustainable pet cleaning products. Pet owners are increasingly conscious of the ingredients in grooming products, seeking out options that are free from harsh chemicals and environmentally friendly. These products are not only better for your pet’s skin and coat but also contribute to a healthier planet.
  • Focus on pet wellness: Knowledgeable pet owners are realising that grooming is an essential part of caring for their animals. Regular grooming provides opportunities for checking the skin, coat, teeth, and nails of your pets, spotting issues before they become too great.
  • Breed & climate sensitive grooming: As more UAE residents become happy pet owners, they are realising that the breed grooming standards common in other countries don’t necessarily apply here. At Pawsitive, our first priority is the health and wellbeing of your pets, and tailoring grooming to accommodate our climate is important.

 

Specialised Pet Grooming Treatments

Beyond the basics, specialised grooming treatments are becoming increasingly popular.

These treatments offered at Pawsitive Vet Clinic are targeted towards your pet’s specific needs. Here are some pet grooming trends we see in 2025:

  • Bath and blow dry: A clean pet is a happy pet! Regular baths help remove dirt, debris, and allergens from your pet’s coat, leaving them feeling fresh and comfortable. Blow-drying ensures their coat is thoroughly dry, preventing skin issues.
  • Haircuts and styling: Whether it’s a breed-specific cut to maintain their signature look or a sanitary trim for hygiene purposes, professional haircuts can make a big difference in your pet’s comfort and appearance. Managing shedding is also a key benefit.
  • Nail trims: Overgrown nails can be painful and even cause injuries. Regular nail trims are essential for your pet’s comfort and mobility. Many pets struggle to wear down their nails naturally, thanks to our well-kept homes and gardens.
  • Ear cleaning: Keeping your pet’s ears clean helps prevent infections and maintain good hygiene.
  • De-shedding treatments: Tired of finding pet hair everywhere? De-shedding treatments can significantly reduce shedding, keeping your home cleaner and your pet more comfortable.

 

Grooming Routines

Throughout the year, our routines ebb and flow, with some times being busier than others, and some seasons require more grooming than others. We always recommend sticking to a regular grooming routine to keep your pet feeling and looking their best. We know that during periods like Ramadan, your energy may be lower and your routine a bit tighter thanks to the extra demands on your time. Having your pet’s grooming appointments locked in at Pawsitive Vet Clinic means you won’t have to worry about extra brushing or nail trims; we’ll take care of that for you!

Which Pets Need Regular Grooming?

Not sure if your pet needs regular grooming? While there are some pets and breeds that generally don’t, many benefit from grooming. Here are some examples of when grooming is helpful.

  • Cats are thought to be meticulous self-groomers, but long-haired breeds, older cats, and overweight cats can often use assistance in keeping their coat and skin healthy.
  • Regular grooming also reduces the amount of loose hair, preventing hairballs and keeping your home cleaner.
  • Domestic birds and reptiles benefit from regular nail or beak trimming, as their enclosures sometimes lack enough natural textures to wear these down naturally.
  • The hot climate in the UAE can also mean that long-haired, double-coated, or cold-climate adapted pets are uncomfortable. Regular grooming ensures these pets are kept comfortable and healthy in our hot desert climate.
