That sounds like it could have been a total meltdown point for a lot of those folks. Good thing everyone kept their cool. ::ba-dum-bum::

Trudy, how awful. I'm glad everyone is okay.
The uti is being stubborn. I have to go on another antibiotic to clear it up and then a third as a maintenance antibiotic for the remainder of my pregnancy. I'm trying not to focus on the fact that utis can lead to miscarriage, but it's hard not to.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Hugs to everyone, spring is coming, hang on!
Andi, thanks for that list, there are some more foods I haven't tried them on yet! We have yet to find the "perfect" food - one that makes me totally happy and all three cats enjoy it. I have tried them on Soulistic and Tiki; they liked them but didn't eat it all. I don't like wasting food. I wish I had a pig.

Can I take a nap? Is 5pm too late for a little nap? It is, isn't it.

Argh. I managed to nick Finn while trying to remove a mat. With shedding season in full swing, he is matting like mad, and I can't keep on top of it even with daily brushing. It's to the point where I am seriously considering having him clipped.

Thrive to spite them
Anne, my Mom had a cat she'd have clipped every summer. Baby (the cat) had a very fluffy coat and would spend all the time in the bathtub or on top of the a/c vent until she started getting clipped. First few days were that of embarrassment, but after that she seemed much more comfortable.

Anne, we have our long hair cat, Folly, clipped every spring/summer. Sometimes it just needs to be done.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Anne, I can't recommend these highly enough as mat removers for cats. No possibility of cutting skin, and if they're sharp enough, there's usually not much need for sawing at the mat.
What about furminating Finn's undercoat? That's the part that usually mats, especially when the weather turns warmer, they seem to projectile shed undercoat--the follicles apparently just shoot the hair into the air. But combing and furminating take time, regularly, and a lion cut would certainly need less daily maintenance.
If you do decide to go with the lion cut, we need pictures.
