Default Hairball


Well, wasn't I boasting the other day that my cats had never hawked up a
hairball? And indeed they hadn't, for years I'd never seen one at all,
ever.
I was out most of the day today sharing meals with relatives.
I came home, lit the woodburner, sat on the rug in front of it to feed it
and...I put my left hand down flat on the rug and felt something wet
underneath it.
It was something about as big as my middle finger, damp. It looked like wet
compressed hair.
This was a hairball, right?
I wonder whose it was?
Serves me right, eh? g
Do I need to groom them more?

"Christina Websell" had some very
interesting things to say about Hairball:

Yep, that's a hairball. :-)

Thanks, Seanette. Why don't I just keep my big mouth shut about my cats not
hawking up hairballs? They never fail to surprise me, they never did it
before, honest. Not in all these years.
I think they must be reading the group.

Just don't say that your cats have never attacked a human before...

Wouldn't surprise me :-).

Reminds me of the scanner I have to fight with on my current temp
assignment. Every time I say to someone else, "it's working pretty
well tonight", it starts acting up.
