.......... ;-)

I have booked Steve into the vets next week

poor pussy

do you think he will notice
he will be coming home minus his pompoms ;-) ;-)

I had one of my boxer dogs, as you put it, pompoms removed, every time I took him to the vets after that, he would growl and snarl at the vet, it reached the point that the vet would not see him unless he was muzzled - and they call them dumb animals :-D :-D :-D

steve was a hand reared kitten
so I thought I would have him done before he realises he is a cat
and starts to spray
he thinks I am his mummy

one foot I hope he takes it better than your boxer lol
and soon forgets he is missing something ;-) ;-)

Our dog was de-pompomed a couple of years ago and has so much fur I don't think he could have found them anyway!

Bless him Shelia

Having his pockets picked?

Good morning Joy xxx
