FurBabies by Nancy Beiman for January 30, 2025

It’s true. A talent all cats are born with.

And I’ve got a new favorite word to add to my vocabulary.

Tuxies are especially built for this.

Better spread by a roller.

Floof is so proud of herself.

Now Kate can be reminded of Floof’s love wherever she goes

Proof the human belongs to the cat to ward off any stranger cats. We have a white cat, a black cat and a cat with a mixed color coat; there is no garment in the house that has no cat fur attached.

True. I wear my cat fur proudly, except when it gets up my nose!

Floof has such pride!

No outfit is complete without cat fur, blankets, furniture, rugs…

We’ve had cats as pets since 1981. I’m willing to be I’ve got hair from the very first one on something somewhere.

A little trickier when shedding on Kate’s socks, but you have to have goals.

I often wonder why the cats lack bald spots after dropping so much fur.

No outfit is complete without cat hair! And with a multicolored cat, one can always be assured that the completeness shows!

Missy has the same coat pattern (in gray and white) as Floof. Gives one the satisfaction of matching every. single. outfit!

Oh my cat! I have that condition chez moi, especially from Tyler, who is totally white. Only one cat has no white hair, just thick shiny black fur. Those cloth brushes are strategically located in the house.

As I read today’s comic, I am sitting here wearing what I think are black slacks. Bunny is shedding more than normal. I launder a lot of blankets. I have to change clothes almost every time I go out. Bunny sheds like a cat.

It happens to every cat owner and I KNEW there was a word for it. Now I know!

Yep, we have two orange and one black. All sharing the one brain cell…

Yup. With five cats of differing colours, except for the Siameseses, and three dogs all the same (black Newfielabs) we can pretty much tell who has been where. I am wearing black fleece pants and had a black cat on my lap. She is gone now, but I can still see traces of her on me.

Shed me no tears. :)

Tiny Heinie sheds worse than any cat with whom I have lived.

When I brush them, I roll the fur into balls. When I have collected enough balls I make a furball kitty out of them. Free kittens that do not make messes.
