“Yes, you have to go, Andrew!”
After a short drive, we arrive at the groomer’s. Dougy, as usual, whines from the carrier. Andy and I ignore him!
Brilliant! They look neater, but Athena cut their hair long. I think the kitty boys like the new look, too.
lookin good doodz !! N yea…when dad callz ya “ANDREW” ya noe he meenz buzinezz !!! 🙂 ♥♥
And when I call him Andrew James Thomas, he really is in trouble!
They are looking pretty sharp after their trims! We do ye-owl a lot in the car when we are going someplace. We never go anywhere good! 😺
The kitty boys seem to enjoy their day at the spa, though the trip to and from the groomer’s (a few short blocks…) is not a favorite. Their veterinarian is just a couple blocks past the groomer’s shop, so they are lucky in that their transportation to appointments takes a short time.
They know they are wonderbul kitties. And they are 🙂
It’s a good thing they are because the groomer has the option of not taking them as clients if they are bad kitties!
The boys look good, Doug!
Thanks! I am pleased with their longer haircuts. Athena and I think that’s the way to go with them in future. My main concern always has been how long the “hygienic trim” on their little butts helps prevent poop droppings on the floor or poop getting caught in their butt floof….!
The boys look spiffy!
Thanks! I am pleased with the longer hair. They are Persians, after all!
They look great Doug! 😻
Thanks, John! Athena always does a great job on them.
I’m glad she kept it a bit long. Isn’t it getting colder now?
Exactly! And the day I took them in was a blustery, cold day. I do have a fluffy towel in the carrier to help them keep warm. For that matter, they aren’t in the cold very long since I get as close to the shop door and my front door as possible to limit their exposure. My car has a blast furnace heater as well, and I make sure the car is heated up before I transport them in winter.
They look gorgeous! You are so blessed to have an excellent groomer, Doug.
Yes, I don’;t take Athena for granted! She is very good with the kitty boys, very patient, and she does excellent work on two wiggly clients.
I like this look. You know Dougy was whining because it’s like Samson being driven to Delilah’s den! 🙂
LOL! He’s usually the good kitty, though, once he gets places. I think the recent post of him at his veterinarian appointment shows how he is: explore for ways out, then settle down for whatever comes. I was surprised he was quiet for over 12 minutes once he thoroughly cased the joint! Andy is the one that usually gets impatient and growly, though he is docile up till that point.
Very stylish.
They thank you! One is blessed to have a groomer who works well with cats and is very used to Andy and Dougy’s moods. Dougy, for example, was all washed and fluffed out this time when he decided the job was done! Usually it’s Andy who gets bored and Athena the groomer has to quickly finish up as best she can. I don’t know how she does it, but no matter how much or little she is able to get done on them, they look great!
Athena must be part magician.
I’m inclined to believe so! She’s a very nice person on top of it. I think her success with the kitty boys is in part because she is such a nice person.
oh well done!!! they look like the kings… pardon THE GODS, they still are ;O)
Yes, you can see the cattitude of a Godcat in that Dougy photo in particular! One of the groomers had her chihuahua rescue pooch there (really little and cute dog!), and the kitty boys seemed less arrogant if not intimidated for the moment. The pooch sniffed around the carrier, but wasn’t barky.
