I want to find a decent priced place to have my cat groomed. He just needs a bath/brushing/nail trim. Plus if anyone knows of a good place in Orlando is a plus... thanks!

Rub him down with kitten wipes or a dry shampoo, rub it in, brush it out.
Pull him close to you and hold each paw out, pushing down on his claws until they extend then clip. You'll be able to see the quick real easy in most cats, if you can't, it's safe to say the very tip after the claw curls is quick-free.
Even if you hit the quick, a little corn starch and a kitty treat goes a long way.

Why can't you do this yourself? Is this a longhaired or shorthaired cat? If it's a longhaired cat you should be COMBING - not brushing it - to remove the dead hairs of the undercoat. If it's a shorthaired cat use a slicker brush or Zoom Groom. Trimming the nails is easier if you have someone to help you. Have the other person wrap the cat in a small blanket or a towel and pull out the paw you wish to trim. Bathing isn't necessary unless the cat has gotten into something or if you allow it run loose outdoors.
