Sundance has lost some weight, too -- enough that he can now keep his back
end clean!

Do they even do that kind of "tummy tuck"? I wouldn't put him through
surgery just for that, but I've thought of asking the vet about it if he
ever needs other surgery.

I was joking when I said Bandit had a tummy tuck. What happened is that she
went into the vet to have her teeth cleaned and the heating bag they used
burned her very badly on her stomach, back and side. She has long hair and
hid the buru for over a week! By the time I found it, it had gotten
necrotic and the had to remove large areas of skin from her stomach, back
and side. This has made her look very "trim" since she doesn't have any
loose flesh left! But it doesn't look "fit" really, it just looks kind of
odd (but I still love her even with her patchy, growing back white hair and
funny-looking silhouette! ;

You can imagine the scene:

My friend Elena comes over, sees the boys and says, "Wow - have your
cats
lost weight???"
Me, a little pleased and self conscious "Why yes - I'm sooooo glad you
noticed!!"

Struck me as funny - but boy have they slimmed down and look sleek now.
They could both use tummy tucks but I love them just the way they are
