I think I have just made my cat bald!

As it's my daughter's wedding on Sunday, I decided to defuzz my legs using cream instead of the usual razor.
Applied cream and sat in living room watching TV.
George (one of my cats) came in - and did his usual rub against my legs!! I dampened some kitchen towel and tried to wipe it off him, but as I chased him around the kitchen, his tail kept rubbing against my leg!
In the end, I had to lock myself in the bathroom!

I've got sooo many people staying Sunday night - meet my cats - Mr Miu (with the bent tail and non- retractible claws - genetical according to the vet) Betty (midget) and the bald skinny George - who used to look 'normal'!!! (Well as normal as an extra long cat can look!)
.............and I bet I have a really long 'always missed' hair or two flapping around on me leg!! LOL

What a picture comes to mind lol

Maggie, hope the wedding goes beautifully and the weather is just right, not too hot but no rain, enough sunshine for photos without everyone squinting lol and all the guests behave!

Most of all, hope you enjoy yourself after all the hard work you have put in to make her day special.

if you are worried, just whisk over your legs with a razor tomorrow, won't be any missed hairs then lol

Hope your daughters wedding goes well, and the sun shones.

Ahh hair removal cream with cats is not a good idea. I have four cats myself and find the best way is to lock your self in the bathroom and sit on the edge of the bath and read a book for ten mins while it works its magic and ignore cats scraching at door trying to get in!

Maggie
You should write a book about living with your cats. There's never a dull moment...Lol

I hope you all have a wonderful day on Sunday. I'm sure it will be very special for everyone.
