What if love, loss and a leap of faith had the ability to transform Malaysia’s pet care industry for the better? That’s what happened when Noor, a six-time mother, turned heartbreak into healing and created Purrfection Catz Grooming Academy, the country’s first-ever cat grooming school.
✨ A Leap of Faith That Changed Everything
It all started in 2015 when Noor knew very little about cats. But when her daughter suggested starting a pet shop and grooming business, she agreed well-armed with nothing more than YouTube tutorials and determination.
Fast forward: Noor studied under 13 mentors worldwide (from the West to Southeast Asia, even in India), impressed the judges when she groomed a client’s cat during a show, and by 2017 had set up Purrfection Catz Grooming Academy.
Her golden rule? No scruffing. No stress. Just love.
“Cats are babies. Treat them gently and humanize them,” asserts Noor firmly. And that’s how she created a no-scruffing movement in the grooming world in Malaysia.
🐱 Why Groomers Are Unique Compared to Vets
One thing Noor drives home is this: a vet’s groom isn’t the same as a professional groomer’s groom.
Vets cut like vets sometimes kasar (rough), only concerned about the health aspect.
Professional groomers, like Noor and her students, groom delicately, skilfully, and lovingly. The end? The cats not only look good but also seem relaxed and well taken care of.
“No matter how good the medicine, grooming done without love won’t bring out a cat’s true beauty,” says Noor proudly.
🌟 Transforming Lives, One Feline (and Scholar) at a Time
Noor’s success does not lie in trophies but in her students’ triumphs. From running cat salons and spas to becoming advanced stylists, her students are shaping Malaysia’s pet care industry.
Great names like Catzonia, Pets Wonderland, Catnest Veterinary, Monster Factory, Kaka Cat House, and Mozicat? They all started at Noor’s training.
Her organisation welcomes Malays, Chinese, and Indians on the same footing land has had foreign students coming from Singapore, Brunei, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Egypt, and even Lithuania. But she values most the B40 segments, and offers them affordable exposure to professional grooming classes.
“A healthy cat is a happy cat,” says Noor smiling.

Her belief is simple :

Noor isn’t getting slow at 61. She’s getting her doctorate and has innovated a Diploma in Cat Grooming Management with KLTVET and Alzette University, France.
Her ambition? To pass the baton of Purrfection Catz Grooming to her girls and mentor Malaysia’s future pet enthusiasts.
“Cats are the heart of Malaysia—77.7% of pet owners prefer them. This business is among the most stable in the economy,” announces Noor.
👑 From Beauty Product Owner to Feline Crusader
Former beauty product businesswoman who had appeared on TV shows, Noor’s universe transformed following a spiritual experience. She closed her business, lost her footing, and then found her new mission in cats.
Her tale today is the strength of the beings she loves testimony that something incredible can arise even from sorrow.
