YEK!! Dirty so-and-so should've consigned
that heap of mess straight to the bin!! Fancy selling it *looks scandalised* ... and fancy BUYING it!!
YUK!
I must admit it was a pretty impressive amount of fur on that auction and I feel desperately sorry for the cat fetching back all that.
I'm not too sure whether cat's
can die from furballs Saruman, but they get
very uncomfortable and don't eat or drink much when their innards are all bunged up with fur. The vets usually give them some oily substance so the fur passes through rather than coming up, but it can certainly be a very serious problem if your cat has long hair and is grooming themselves a lot.
One of my three cats regularly 'hoiked-up' and it got to be second-nature to look where you were treading in the morning when you came downstairs!
I only have the fluffy black cat now and thankfully she's not too bad ... provided I groom her regularly of course!
In fact, I try to groom her at least once a day which she doesn't care for much, but she needs it as her coat is very dense at the moment and she's washing herself quite a bit. It won't stop the furballs altogether but it will lessen the amount she swallows.
As for that flipping revolting auction, all I can say is ... 'a fool and his money are soon parted' ...
