Honey, I Shaved the Cat

Reilly the cat has a shedding problem. Todd has decided that constant brushing does no good - the only solution, he says, is shaving him. Reilly was absolutely +thrilled+ to sit for 15 minutes for this shave attempt. It took 2 of us to hold him. Our inexpensive beard shaver just wasn't up for the job - leaving a patchy area and another area simply trimming the existing hairs about 1/2 inch. The first photo is the result. Good-natured Reilly has not held it against us. He simply continued to shed this evening.
