My fellow cat lovers, I have found a miracle!!!

[SOteric]

My cat StirFry is something of a cross between a short hair and a long hair. I just call him 'extra fluffy.' But this means he's always suffered unusually from hairballs. Yes, I know about PetroMalt and I buy it by the case. Yes, I groom him, sometimes 3 or 4 times a day. Yes, I feed him a diet designed to maximise his ability to process hairballs. He still has hairballs. Frequently. Poor little dude.

Now, I have an even better tool in the battle. My friend Jo, - who has two of StirFry's littermates in her household, showed me this utterly innocent looking silicone cat groomer. I thought it couldn't possibly work, so she loaned it to me.

My ghod!!! I pulled enough loose hair off my cat to build another cat. -And I'd just groomed him with a comb!

It looks like this:

Go. Do. Be.

4. S

I appreciate the tip.

I'm gonna order one.

Female's hair gets into EVERYTHING.

THANKS!!!!!

[SOteric]

7. Yeah, I'm especially happy with it because

it doesn't involve dosing him with more weird stuff. I worry about PetroMalt even though my vet has reassured me. This is just a perfect. I sit him down on my lap and he purrs for 15 minutes while I 'unfluff' him a bit.

12. Speaking of Female, here's a new Papa photo for you

14. Don't bet on it

Kenworth(Kenny) wakes up to eat, shit, and get petted. Not necessarily in that order:rofl:

[flamingyouth]

15. That's a great name for a cat!

I should add that Papa keeps our home safe from his nemesis Gustav, the tomcat next door. :D

[liberaltrucker]

16. Thanks

I thought it aproppo for my occupation. Sounds like Papa isn't so lazy when defending territory. Kenny damn near attacked a rotweiler that got too close to the truck once. Thankfully, the windows were closed:)

5. I need that for my kitty

she is a short hair, but her fur is very thick and she sheds an unbelievable amount

6. Just ordered it - thanks!

I had to laugh, though, at the "Add to wedding registry" option on the page.:rofl:

[SOteric]

9. Hee! People used to just get

married and have children. Now they get married and have cats together.

[liberaltrucker]

10. Thank you, thank you, thank you

Just ordered. No more mountains of kitty hair in my truck's sleeper:yourock:
