Friday Felines

We took Smokey to have his summer cut on Wednesday. His fur was matted and every time he came in he brought trash with him. This is Smokey before.

There’s a piece of grass or pine straw on his coat right in front of his nose.

Mark took him in for his cut. Mark has always said Smokey should have a deep, raspy voice like he spent too much time in a bar, but he doesn’t. Mark said he mewed like a pitiful little kitten on the way.

This is Smokey with his new summer cut.

This is his best side. He has a terrible pink scar on his right side. I think we have shown it in an earlier blog post. We think it’s where Zoe bit him.

You can’t see his pot belly here. He has some strange masses in his stomach that seem to make it worse than you might expect. The vet doesn’t think they’re anything to worry about. He’s had them for several years at least.

  1. Too “foo-foo” for my tastes, but I’ll bet that Smoky feels better without all the fur (in the summer, anyway). This kind of cut will allow you to remove engorged ticks more easily as well!

    • Scott — Smokey is freaked out…he lies real low to the ground when he walks. I guess he’ll get used to it.

      Robin Andrea — I’m so sorry about Bonsai.

  2. Smokey looks great with his new summer cut. Whenever I see pics of your pretty kitty cats, I always think of our Bonsai. Sure do miss that crazy boy. Sigh.
