Tomorrow Obie is booked in for a Lion Cut...

[StillMedusa]

Managed to get him in (from one of the 4 homes he visits!) and he is not pleased to be kept in.
Here is the 'before' picture. He looks fab but under his top coat is solid horrible matting. He will not let us... or any of his other wives..groom him. So the big shave it is.
I'll update with the awful 'after' pic tomorrow when no doubt he will resemble a large ginger sausage!

Didn't he go really soppy after the last one?

any of his other wives . He is a gorgeous boy. I wish I lived next door to you . Good luck Obie!

Wow, he's spectacular! What does he weigh?

I wouldn't let him out of my sight - he's awesome!! Will he sit well for his "hairdresser"?

Hes massive! Proper Main Coon. Nice!

Looking forward to the after picture!

He's 24 pounds...and he will be shaved under sedation..£150 for a really shit haircut .
He's there now..I'll update this afternoon once I have picked him up!

Placemarking for the lols at Obie

just magnificent!

I just love in the photo you are smiling in pure joy at your fur ball and Obie's face is like "gerrof me, this is so demeaning""

Wow what an amazing cat !

£150?!! I suppose that's mainly the cost of sedating him. Is it being done at the vet? He's gorgeous.

Crikey. That's twice as much as both of my cats combined! You lucky thing. Such cuddles!

Yes it's sedation at the vets... and that's not me but DD2 who has just returned home to live after 5 years away..and 5 years of not having cats!
And he is NOT cuddly :( He does not like being in a several cat household, and so mostly lives with the retired little Thai lady down the road... and sometimes at no 59, and now and again at no 57! He comes home about once every 3 days, stuffs his face, snores on the sofa then goes again!
He has at least 4 'wives'...

Checking in for the after shots 😺
