I'd leave the animals outside while moulting but there again I wouldn't have them to start with :-) Mary |

When we open the foyer windows and the window in the front screen door too, even the slightest breeze can send fur balls rolling across the floor... even if I swept it earlier the same day. It's really hard keeping up with them (dogs for us, not cats) during shedding season, but we wouldn't part with them for the world... they are our fur babies. They've been shedding a LOT this year for some reason. If I don't brush them for a couple of days (or even sometimes when I do) you can see "tufts" of fur pushing their way out of their coats later in the day. So whenever Casper comes walking by, I play "pull the tufters" from him. He thinks it's a great game, wagging happily until he decides he's had enough and then he takes off leaving me with a lovely mound of white fur "tufts" to throw away. Buffy hasn't been well today. She has a cancerous stomach tumor, and has been just lying around most of the day. Unfortunately she is messing in the house (she stays in the laundryroom) a bit today too, so we had to have her outside quite a bit to try to make sure she went in the right place... didn't work though, it's happened about three times now *while* she is laying down sleeping. We don't think she will live too much longer (she isn't in any pain at the moment though, so that's a good thing) and the vet says when she finally gives up eating completely the end will be very near for her like it was for her own dog. The vet also said "All rules are out the window now, just let her eat whatever she wants, whenever she wants to eat it." Anyway, while Buffy was lying on the grass, I sat beside her massaging her (she also has arthritis) and "tufting" her gently. After her massage though she struggled to her feet (before that she wasn't even trying, and was just lying there perfectly still), with a little help from Matthew to get her hind legs under her properly, and made her way back into the house for a while. It's too cool and damp to even consider leaving her outside for too long, so we just have to clean up after her when she has an accident. *hugs* Gemini |
