Missy Kitty. She gets a "lioness cut" every summer because her fur gets all matted and clumped.

Yeah, I took that when we were on vacation in Australia a few month back...

This is eggplant. He was rescued from the city of Chicago and we adopted him and another kitten to be barn cats to help get rid of some mice problems. (Spoiled barn cats) he has lived in the barn for about a year he has always had a limp and it isn't getting any better and we found out he isn't 4 like they said he is more like 8. Well in the next week eggplant is moving inside to take control of the house and put the dogs in their place. And we are adopting 2 black kittens to take eggplants vacancy in the barn on mouse patrol.

Any size box. Somewhere I have a pic with him laying with JUST his head in a tiny box from a pack of thank you cards.

Miss Sadie has some very large mats in her tail fur. Not sure how to go about getting them out. They are down in there and I'm afraid I may have to cut them out. I'm afraid anything I do will get me cut as well...

There are combs with tines that rotate, made for combing out matted fur. If she'll tolerate you touching her tail, that's what I'd try first. My Missy has long fur and gets terribly matted and I have her shaved every summer (I posted a pic of that). Once it grows back I have to keep brushing her, which she loves.

Beware with scissors if you try that - kitties have very thin skin and are easy to cut. That can get infected. Every vet will tell you to never try that yourself.

My cat can get matted clumps sometimes. I just cut off the end part of it without going too close to the skin, and within a few days she's able to finish the job on her own. I generally find the clump on the floor after she's yanked it out.

We just clip the top off the Mats, rub some of the hand lotion into the mat that the crazy cat likes & the mats disappear in a few days!

I'm now getting "Expert" advise on everything beer related.

"You shouldn't have added blueberries to that Sour"

"Are you sure that keg dry hop was long enough"

We are enjoying the heck out of these sisters.

Eggplant has been inside the house for a few weeks. And he has completely taken over the house View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1480272951.467766.jpg

Couch time for the fur balls. My two cats are balled up on top of the couch. You can barely see the black one. It's hard to take pictures of him but trust me they're pretty damn adorable. The dog(who loves the cats) is curled up in the middle there but I know this is the wrong thread for that guy.

Try crushing some catnip between you fingers and the rubbing into the matted clump.

If I did that my cat would be chasing his tail like a dog. He's a real dope fiend when he's on the 'nip.

 

[MaxStout]

Couldn't resist....

No matter how bad my week was, coming home to this tonight made my day.
Well heck. Give me a moment to see if I can load this video from my phone.

 

[rlonardo]

This fluffball is keeping me warm on this crap cold night. Well, him and the Christmas Ale...

My cat, Boo Boo. He's 17 years old and still likes climbing up onto high places.

 

[Temptd2]

Oh that bottom one is too cute - you can just SEE him saying, "Peek-a-boo! I see you!" LOL!

 

[MaxStout]

We were eating Thanksgiving dinner at the time I took those pics. We have a split-level house and that's a perch about 9 feet above our dining room. My cousin looked up, saw the cat on the railing, and gasped. She thought the cat was in a precarious spot, but I've seen him sit up there many times. Never slipped. He'll sit up there and just watch us, as if to say, "turn your backs on that food for just a second..."

With these kittens, this is our normal.

OMG, that is hilarious!

You have no idea. I'd gotten my phone out for all the other cat sh*t crazy things she had been doing up to that point and she gave me this!

I just love that cat. More videos, please!

20 lbs bone in chicken leg quarters, 6 lb Blue Ridge beef kitten mix, 5 lbs beef heart, 1 lb chicken livers, 18 whole eggs and vitamin supplements and one nice meat grinder.
We have cat food. The breeder feeds raw so we decided to keep them on it. One nice benifit is they walk by the kibble in our American short hairs bowl and just try to cover it up and the haired cats won't touch raw.

This is Meowzer, he died several years ago, so no condolences required. He was a good cat & lived a long time. I haven't kept any animals since then.
Regards, GF.
