Well, I LOVE my Mom, but here lately she is really trying my patience. Most evenings she slithers down on the floor with me and I KNOW she is hiding that darned comb and a pair of scissors to try to get my BEAUTIFUL hair detangled. SIGH! I must admit she is fairly gentle and it beats having to go to the vet and getting sheared. But, I sure don't like it. I don't scratch my Mom ... her heart is in the right place and she is as gentle as she can be. We both rejoiced when she got the hair on my back and sides tangle-free ... but now she is gearing up for the tummy area. THAT is going to be a battle I HOPE to win. Mom is good, if she combs one night, she lets my skin and hair "rest" for a couple of days and then tries again, so I don't get real sore. I am glad for that. But! We ARE making progress. Please keep me in your thoughts ... having these tangles is just NOT my idea of "FUN!" And, Tam has to get his nose in everything and that just REALLY makes it worse. Mom has already groomed him and he looks great ... but his hair is not as thick as mine! But, he acts like he MUST "supervise" when Mom is cutting my hair. Humph!!!! Younger housemates can be a "pain" sometimes, but I must admit I do feel more like playing since Mom has been working on the tangles! Wish me luck!!!!! =^..^=
