1. Girl's cat has very long hair. Long hair that gets tangled. And matted. And greasy. Cat grooming costs $150. And involves a 20-minute car ride with a cat that HATES car rides.
2. THIS is our current "entertainment center".
No, really!
3. I had something more like THIS in mind. But something like that costs as much as my first car. No, really!
So, since every penny that crosses my palm for the foreseeable future is already spoken for, I decided that I could bear to wash a cat to enable myself to get rid of all of those ugly cords (or at least hide them). It really wasn't THAT bad. She quit making the "I am in fear for my mortal soul" noises after the first couple of minutes and I only have a couple of scratches on one wrist. I did worry that the checker at Costco thought I was a "cutter" when she saw them today, but, of course not! I'm perfectly normal: I'm not a cutter, I'm just a cat bather! Oh, wait...
The great thing is that we got this photo:
This is what she normally looks like:
Poor Queenie!
I love your cat! Wish I had a kitten just like your cat! Beautiful... my girl is grieving the loss of her cat that she has had since 5 years old. Miss Sally is greatly missed!
