This poor thing just came home from spending the morning at the vet, getting shaved and having a bath. He’s a long haired cat and at 17 years old he isn’t as limber as he used to be. So he doesn’t groom himself as much and that long hair gets matted. We cut out some hair clumps but just couldn’t keep up. We were concerned that at his age he might not survive the anesthesia they do in order to shave him but decided to risk it.
No food or water after midnight last night meant we had a very unhappy hungry cat this morning. And then there was the indignity of getting put into his carrier and put in the car. Not a happy kitty! He still looks a bit grumpy but dug right into his food and fresh water as soon as I got him home. Grumpy or not I’m just glad he is home safe and sound.
He may be grumpy today, but tomorrow all will be forgiven, and he'll be happy with his new look.
