My Isaac keeps himself clean and his long hair is not a health problem. However, when the hair on his rump gets long he tends to leave "gifts" around the house after coming out of the litter box. I've also notice that his hinder gets a little wet when he pees. The vet techs always look at me crazy when I ask for a sanitary shave because his hinder is always clean. Then I have to explain about the "Gifts" he leave. Then the do it, but is there a reason they question me about doing this to him?
