Lightheartedness

The other day I decided, with it being Spring
and
my Cleo Cat shedding
a lot,
that a serious brushing was needed.
Here is Cleo looking at the result. She looks thinner,
now that all the excess hair is gone.
So funny...

Yes. That is a lot of hair and she is still a huge fluff ball!


Here she is today, relaxing on my old beloved
gold chair.
This chair was my Dad's when I was young.
We played spaceship, sitting backwards,
with the navy blue bottons.

As I live alone,
Cleo is a huge comfort to me.
She makes me laugh
needs my affection and
is a living presence in my small home.

I am grateful to God for her.

  8. That's just extra fur??? It looks like an extra cat! Miss Darcy and Miss Tilney are very impressed indeed and are probably planning to put extra effort into shedding in the future.

  9. Hi Margi - welcome - lovely cat names! I have added you to my blog role and look forward to getting to know you and your cats, perhaps!

    Yes. Cleo has a LOT of hair. She is a non-purebred long-haired himalayan , from what I've been told... it explains the hair!!!!

  11. thanks Elizabeth! :)

    I live in a lovely 1 bedroom apartment... so... I can't save Cleo's hair...

    You are right though... she is very beautiful and her fur would make a lovely light coloured blanket!
