CATastrophe - How to Lionize Your Cat
Hair today... gone tomorrow!
|
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…)   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 ticked off cat: Priceless! Post-Note: Is a “lion cut” for real? “The “lion cut” is indeed a standard grooming technique in which a cat’s hair is shaved skin-close all over the body but left intact around the head, feet, and the end of the tail; the style so named because it mimics the large mane and foot-and-tail tufts of a male lion.” Snopes.com Exuberance is beauty. - William Blake Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder. - Unknown Love built on beauty, soon as beauty, dies. - John Donne Never ask the barber if you need a haircut. - Warren Buffett There is no cosmetic for beauty like happiness. - Lady Marguerite Blessington Everything has its beauty, but not everyone sees it. - Confucius Easter spells out beauty, the rare beauty of new life. - S D Gordon Beauty may be skin deep, but ugly goes clear to the bone. - Redd Foxx The kind man feeds his cat before sitting down to dinner. - Hebrew Proverb He doesn't dye his hair, he's just prematurely orange. - Gerald Ford If there is light in the soul, there will be beauty in the person. - Chinese Proverb The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. - Eleanor Roosevelt He never chooses an opinion, he just wears whatever happens to be in style. - Leo Tolstoy The whiter my hair becomes, the more ready people are to believe what I say. - Bertrand Russell Be stubbornly committed to your team, but flexible in your leadership style. - Jo Miller When a man loves cats, I am his friend and comrade without further introduction. - Mark Twain The problem with beauty is that it's like being born rich and getting poorer. - Joan Collins In the beginning, God created man, but seeing him so feeble, He gave him the cat. - Warren Eckstein Sleep is like my cat.
