Our poor, sweet kitty, Grace, is getting on in years. We think she's close to being 19 years old now, but she could even be older. She's not as agile and flexible as she used to be, and not so diligent about grooming and bathing herself, either. Some days, Grace actually smells pretty bad. And the snarls! Uncombable! We try to get rid of at least one hair snarl each day, but she usually hides when she sees us get her brush. We've been giving Grace a bath every two or three weeks. I spray on hair de-tangler made for babies, and we try to comb the knots out of her hair after she's dry. That wasn't working too well, either. So, last resort - we took Grace to the vet for grooming. Here's what we got: Shaved! Grace has been shaved! Doesn't she look cute in a pathetic kind of way? I thought she'd be traumatized and want to hide. But she's actually strutting around the house flaunting her new look. The shaved areas on her back feel like velvet! It's a pleasure to pet Grace again and not get our hands stuck in gobs of knotted hair. Grace is asking to go outside. Does she want to show off her new hairdo to the neighborhood cats? Or is she planning to run away because of what we've done to her? all photos: corsi photo

oh what a pretty cat.
we have to shave our orange boy as well :) he gets embarrassed and hides under furniture and blankets for a few weeks though.
very cute.
Sweet old girl! Sounds like she rather likes it. I'll bet she's showing off and probably appreciates being clean without all the effort on HER part.
When I stopped giggling (sorry Grace) I have to admit she looks pretty cute and very comfortable.
The funniest reaction has been from our other cat, Bandit. Ever since Grace got home with her new haircut, Bandit hisses at her non-stop. Does he not recognize her? Does she smell different? Is he jealous?
It's nice that there is someone who writes about these things, There are very useful.

just beneath, are numerous totally not related sites to ours, however, they are surely worth going over.
