What distinguishes this business
Grooming-only visits are offered on Thursday, Friday and Saturday mornings
Cat's Cradle in San Rafael explicitly offers grooming both with and without boarding. Its grooming page specifies Thursday, Friday and Saturday morning appointments, rather than every day the boarding facility operates. The feline menu includes combing, bathing, nails and precision shaving when needed. The page requests rabies vaccination for grooming cats. The service is at the E Street facility, not a house-call visit.

A question worth settling
Can I reserve a grooming-only morning, and when should I return for pickup?
Use the grooming days to plan the visit instead of assuming the boarding reception schedule applies. If you are combining a stay and a groom, ask whether the groom is planned before collection and how it is itemized. For a medicated-shampoo request, coordinate the product and reason with the provider and veterinarian; a menu option is not a diagnosis or treatment recommendation.
