LOL! I know, Jeremy (my boyfriend) and I didn't know how to take it at first. I really took him to the groomers to get a bath, brush and "trim" but I ended up taking home what looked like and over grown poodle/rat. Haha!
Initially I was a little upset by the haircut, but then I realized that he hasn't had a hairball barfy is over 2 and a half months...and he usually had a few every week. He also became a lot more active and his litter box habits improved. I think he was afraid to get his "bloomers" dirty before.
Einstein's coat has now grown in a bit and it blends nicely with his mane around his face. He is a delightful little boy. Hates wet food, isn't that weird?
Very cute cats! Sorry for your loss though. When did you lose the other one?
I can't believe you took Einstein in for a bath, brush and trim and they shaved him like that! Not that it looks bad but I'd be so shocked if I thought my cat was getting trimmed and when I got there he had been pretty much stripped!
