Buffy has a very thick undercoat. She was sitting in my lap, getting
scritches and purring to beat the band. In the process her fur was wafting up and sticking to my face. Time for the Furminator! An excellent de-shedding tool. It's amazing to me how much fur she sheds. I have to throw the excess fluffy fur in an outside trash bin. Good thing for me she loves to be "furminated". She rolls around and purrs and practically drools. Then we play with some toys and I get rid of the fur the bin collected. Then I have to vacuum. She does not like the big sucky monster but I don't want fur all over the place, either. Jill |

Three in one week, and, against all odds, all three managed to hit the white carpet. |

Despite her thick coat, hairballs are one thing Buffy does not seem to have a problem with. It's odd, because Persia (RB 2014) was a short hair but she coughed up hairballs all the time. She was brushed regularly and later I used the furminator tool on her. She tended to have a sensitive tummy, which might explain it. I've never seen or heard Buffy do that. You certainly recognize the distinctive sound of "horking" a cat makes when it comes to a hairball. Buffy is a short hair but has a much thicker undercoat. She sheds like crazy. Yet she seems to be immune to hairballs. Knock wood... Jill |

Have you tried the furminator tool for de-shedding? I'm not affiliated with the product, just a happy user. I can certainly sympathize since I have what used to be white carpet. Jill |

Jill I had one when I moved. I wonder what happened to it? I'll get another one. |
