Precious body parts.
Well, mama started to tidy up my sleeping place, my favorite one, which is on a comforter, duvet, poofy, whatever one calls it, and she had a roll of packing tape, which works quite well, normally, but for some reason those tenacious Loulou hairs did NOT wish to be removed easily and so she started unwinding the tape and stretching it over the duvet, starting at top and heading toward the bottom of the area, and I watched amused as she unwound and unwound and unwound that tape and after about 10 minutes of this, she ended up with a HUGE ball of used packing tape and started rubbing that around, too, and that took off some more of my precious pelt and FINALLY, my duvet was (sort of) clean.
Papa then said, Oh, something is coming in a week or so that might work better.
(I should have mentioned that to mama as I watched her pushing and pulling and pressing and tangling with that tape…but it was too much fun to watch, haha.)
Besides, toward the end of this unplanned ordeal (I had been WAITING TOO LONG), I just left to lie down on a new duvet.
Hey, mama, you’ll find my hairs more easily on this one!
APRIL FOOLS, mama!

In France, you are supposed to stick a paper fish on anyone’s back without their knowledge. Now who thought up that one?
Mom gave up being too fussy about cat hair waaaay back when Orbit was still here. She does her best with the vacuum, but we’ve all come to accept that cat hair is a part of everyday life when you love cats.
Hear, hear, we are not bothered by pelted places at all. Just made a good blog, haha.
Now you can spend all your time furring up your duvet again, Loulou.
Haha, you guys have the right idea about how to live! I have already begun, but mama is brushig me so much I can’t sleep! But I do get malt paste after….
Well, Loulou – I don’t shed! But I have to be trimmed, YUK. Enjoy that new duvet Loulou – it’s so pretty and Mamma used to use tape to remove Sassy’s shedding – and it’s the season – coming up! I run past Bull and Bill’s (my new toilettage place) and Animal Paradise and the vets. But everyone goes gaga over my cut, it makes me feel pretty!
Your are so HIP, Mya. Those cuts are the kindest cuts of al!
Mom throws our favorite blankets into the dryer with a damp towel. We think that is because of the dog! She is blowing her undercoat and there is dog hair everywhere. We are still catching up. Mom has had a really busy time this week because of the accident. We hope you and your people have a fabulously happy day!
We will go find out about the accident. We hope everyone is okay!!!!! Great idea about the towel and dryer.
That came out great. I have been using the furminator comb to get hair off of the cat trees.
Well, papa is talking about something arriving that is the end all be all. We’ll see.
Mom buys those lint rollers for my hair but I don’t lie on many items of furniture – I’m a RUG BOY…..I have spots behind chairs where I nap and the vacuum sucks up all my hair – Mom says she could make a cat out of all the hair she gets every week. YIKES – I hope I don’t have to share my toys with a VACUUMKITTY.
Hugs, Teddy
Oh, no, your mama wouldn’t subject you to THAT! In France your hair is put into little bags (some people do this) and it is supposedly good for arthritis! I sleep with all my hairs next to mama’s funny knee and I think I help.
We go through the lint rollers around here. Everyone of the fur babies is extra hairy especially Leo. Good to see the photos and hear the stories. Have a good weekend.
Yes, mama has a lint roller and it works pretty well, but I am a short hair kitty! Thanks for your visit!
It beats sticking a “Kick Me” sign on someone, I guess. What does it “mean” ?
Mama is looking it up. Waiting… https://frenchmoments.eu/april-fools-day-traditions-in-france-le-1er-avril/
Getting things properly furred is lots of work Loulou!
Oh, now there’s a wise man…er…kitty. To fur is to be.
I like the paper fish idea.
Have a fabulous Thankful Thursday. ♥
And you, too. Poisson d’ avril is April fish, but why a FISH?
MOL! Enjoy your new duvet LouLou and give your Mom extra purrs for that April Fool’s trick! I bet you wouldn’t mind getting a paper fish on your back, something fun to take off and rip to shreds.
Yes, yes, rip it up really well!
