Careful how you speak

Be very careful how you say certain words, or something like this could happen to your pet.


POOR KITTY!

My sister-in law is from Oklahoma and has a slight accent. She has cats and when she lived in the south she would take them to the groomers and have what is called a Line Cut. To her, a line cut is when all of the fur hanging down below the cat's tummy is taken off because it gets matted or snarled.

When she moved to Chicago with my brother, one of the cats fur got all tangled up during the move so she took it in for a line cut. She was quite surprised when she heard the price as it was twice as much as it was down south. She confirmed with the groomer that he understood what a line cut was and he said "yes, I know what a LION cut is." It seems her accent came out sounding like LION not LINE and this is how her cat was returned to her. (See PHOTOS) She cried for a week...but not as much as the cat. It was November in Chicago and the cat needed all the fur it had."

Gas in car to go to groomers - $4.50
Cat car carrier - $32.99
Grooming fee - $80.00
Getting the look from one seriously P-O'd cat - Priceless!

At least there won't be alot of cat hairs all over the sofas, sweaters, and other items.

Nothing is so bad that it is not good for something. Love your humor CD always hilarius.

It does seem to me though that shaving a cat like the one on the pictures, would be condescending to cats in generel.

[Corno Dolce]

I love cats btw - my kitty has very short hairs and hardly sheds.

Oh, then it would be my greatest honor to help you with that, Judy . If you go into advanced options, there's a little YouTube icon on top, where all the formatting stuff is. Just click on that, and paste the address of the youtube video in between

its amazing how something as little as that totally makes my day
