Tricky Tuxedo




Kitties!

Salem here.

I'm in my lair behind the curtain in the bedroom--and as you can see from all the fur I like to hang out here a lot, and often.  Actually Mommy laundered these curtains three weeks ago!  I am shedding like mad, so Mommy told Daddy I needed a grooming.  (I prefer him to her, much to her dismay.  heh.)

So, Daddy went to town and furminated me until I was practically nekkid!

OK, not really, but judging from the fur pile in yesterday's post he removed at least another cat's worth of fur.

And, we staged a little reenactment video for you!
You'll hear me complaining talking the entire time--don't worry, Daddy's not hurting me or anything--that's just how I talk: "Ma-wah-WAH-WAH-wee-wa-wah".*  Gotta keep him in line, you understand! 

or watch HERE

 Did you see me head for my Curtain Cave at the end of the video?

Now, you might be wondering where was I in the post yesterday--Mommy typed that the Clue was in the post somewhere and it was--my name was in the labels, but *I* wasn't in any of the photos...just my furs.  There's even a little white patch in the middle of the pile, just like my vest.

Pretty tricky, huh? 
Bwa ha ha ha ha ha!!!!


Happy Tuesday!

XX  Salem  XX

  1. Marvellous! Thank you for the re-enactment. We love the girlcat whinging that is actually delight - although by the end of it the Meaty Salem did skidaddle away quite fast. Aila is a bit like that too. Hehehehe.
    PS We just read the comment over at Spitty's - so it's hard to squee over something with no furs ?! Seppo is weeping in the corner feeling rejected now. He thinks he's not going to get much lubbin' when Mom Trish visits.

  2. Phew - re. your comment on our blog re. your comment on Spitty's blog! Seppo is now a happy boy having his tummy tickled purring. He awaits the visit eagerly. But no furminating, please, for him!

  3. Your curtains are wonderfully furred, but do you get to CLIMB them?!?!

  4. At least you allow to be brushed ! With Kim it's impossible, when she sees a brush she runs away, I have to go to the groomer with her, and there she purrs ! Try to understand a cat !

  5. Our Georgia loves to be brushes and she talks too ;)
    Now, your Daddy needs to furminate the curtains!
    Purrs Georgia and Julie,

  7. That was very clever. You did shed a lot of hair!

  8. That certainly was a successful defurmination. Newton needs a furmination but he won't allow it. He thinks brush is a four-letter word!

  9. My goodness, even the re-enactment took out a lot of fur! I see you nearly put the bitty on Dad, Salem. Good for you. Keep those humans in line.

    Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx

  13. She acts like Daddy is killing her, but she love Love LOVES it!!! My eight love to be brushed but and when the tools appear they are all over them. THEN when you start, it's like "OK, that's enuf!" and they scoot away. Silly Kitties!

  14. I always have to wait until Banjo goes to the vet (and gets sedated) to do a good furminator on him. Otherwise, I get two maybe three strokes before he starts biting. Such a naughty kitty. ;)

  17. Good job! I have to chase Charlie to furminate him!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Nope, I never would have guessed all that furrs came from Salem!

  19. That is the most vigorous Furminating we have ever seen. You would need an army to hold any of us down if our daddy worked that hard on us. You definitely have been shedding lots of furs! XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

  29. Ha, but Salem had the last word/meow. I find the smaller Furminator works better when going over boney parts.

  30. Salem you could build a furcat with all that extra fur! :) We are shedding a lot too. Tis the season!! Ack! :p

  32. MOL! That was pretty sneaky of your mom. And we bet you weigh about 10 lbs less after losing all that furs. :)

    ReplyDelete
  33. Very tricky! You look fantastic though.

  34. Salem, we can't believe you sat there through that furminating! We hate the furminator and won't allow it for more than .598 seconds!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Your daddy is furry fast with that furminator Salem! We guess he needs to 'cuz when you've had enuf you've had enuf!

    Great job on the furring of the draperies, MOL
