Thought I would post this to save me from hijacking Jills thread any further.
Misty is my 11 year old persian cat who I took in last year. She was never groomed enough with her previous owner to be able to get used to it. She will not let a brush, comb or scissors anywhere near her without lashing out. I have never seen such a vicious cat before.
The vet charged £94 last time she was shaved. That was discribed on the bill as "a simple 10 minute shave". They shaved patches off her where the matts were but when i got her home I found they had missed some so when I took her back the next week they completely shaved her free of charge. I wanted her completely shaved in the first place to let all of the fur grow back nicely together.
Then there is Blue who is 8. I have had him since he was 6 months old. He was the last one in the litter that nobody seemed to want. After we got him home and took him to the vet, we found out he had ringworm. :shock: :shock: :twisted:
He loves to be groomed and comes running if he sees the comb in your hand. He's really good having a shower too.
