My shorthair has very thick hair, and I got behind with the comb. It matted up on his back, and I was about to take him somewhere but didn't need the expense, stress on him and me, and hassle.
So I did like I used to do with my Lucy, motioned for him to jump up on the table, and he patiently sat while I tediously and oh so carefully cut into the mats a little snip, then worked through them so carefully and after what seemed like an hour or more, he was freed of them.

He is 12. I also had his two sisters, Cashmere and cotton, until last spring when cashmere passed away. She was always the week one, skinny and finicky. Still, I didn’t expect her to get kidney failure so soon. His name is corduroy. We got him after the girls, so I had to come up with a fabric name starting with the same sound. But we just call him Roy.
The vet said it looks like he is healing. It looks bad to me, but when she strained it to see the wound on the cornea, it was a lot smaller. So he was sent home with the conehead and more anabiotic’s.
I making the pair Jell-O salad as we speak. The lime Jell-O by itself seems pretty strong, so I’m glad to be adding the cream cheese. I’m only making a half recipe because I used the other half in a cilantro cream sauce to go on top of pork tacos. I’m wondering how easily the cream cheese stirs in though? I guess I will find out in a few minutes.
