18 year old kitty going for his first big grooming tomorrow
My almost 18 year old Tycho is a long haired tabby. He just doesn't
groom himself well anymore, and he is full of mats (he won't let us brush him on the lower part of his back or belly). I'm bringing him to the vet for a "shave" tomorrow. Because I work, I'll be dropping him off in the AM and picking him up after work. I'm worried about him, since his last encounter with the razor at the vet led to pee and poo bec he was so nervous...and that was just a little quick trim on one matted area! Wish us luck! |

Sending soothing purrs for 18 year old kitty. I'llbet he will be proud when you tell him how handsome he is now. mLB This is indeed a very important part of "after shave". Lavish compliments work wonders. karen |
