A Furry Update
Woman in the Middle | April 18, 2014After my last post two days ago about the ridiculous amount of shedding Honey the Dog is doing, I had to give you an update. I have spent three days in a row brushing her multiple times a day. I just brushed her for the third or fourth time today. A quick 30 seconds of brushing got me a brushfull of hair, a wad the size of my fist. Eldest Daughter suggested that I invite people over and do it as a parlor trick for our friends, it is so amazing. The dog looks good and nicely brushed but my floors still have hair everywhere and obviously Honey is still shedding like no tomorrow. Sigh.
Dogs can be so much work
I could send my cat Hazel to join Honey. She is a short-haired cat with a very thick undercoat. I adopted her because she looked like she wouldn’t shed much. (I already had two that did a good job of that!) Turns out, I could make an afghan out of the fur I comb from her. The joke was on me. Fortunately she is a delightful cat in every other way.
Well, at least she looks good!
