Yesterday was consumed by having both cats bathed at the vet's office. The sweetest little girls (almost children really) brought my boys out to me so proud of how they looked. Milo evidently took the drying and brushing only to a certain point. Then he let them know he had had it and he was through with all the primping. Grayson, on the other hand, was his usual gentleman self and put up with everything without so much as a swat at them. I am a proud mama of that boy. But Dr. Green shaved him down his back as he had clumps of hair that would not brush out. He said Gray is getting a little arthritis and can't groom himself down his back and that is what caused the clumps. My goodness, he looks like he has a reverse mohawk but I'm telling him he has a racing stripe and it is very good looking. I really want his hair to grow back fast as Milo will take advantage of this naked back, I am afraid. Probably both cats will hide from me this morning, lest there be a repeat of yesterday's excursion.
