The Rudy Report

Hello, Hello, hello kitties! It's me - RUDY! with your Rudy Report! I have to tell ya' the 'rents had a great idea when they decided to get me a shave-down! I am matt-free, cool and handsome. The sun feels great on my coat, I don't have to deal with getting overheated and clean-up is a breeze. I also want to note that I have maintained my extreme handsomeness. I really don't see a downside to the entire ordeal - well maybe that whole PTU/grooming experience thing...but what's done is done...

Keep those tails high kitties - and stay cool, the hots are not over.



The Lion in Summer

Without any further adieu...

 
TA-DA!
Rudy Toots had a lot of his floof go poof!

 Fresh from the groomers with a hearty appetite!

 No more mats anywhere to be found.

The 'rents can't stop squeeing...

They say he feels like velvet.

Personally...

...I can't stop laffin'! He looks like a freekin' rat!



Mommy here - Rudy is just fine, as a matter of fact, he seems pretty pleased with himself. He sprawled right out in the middle of the living room for all the world to behold his glory. Parker, Puff, Powder and Diamond Doggie stared and stared at him. He has to be cooler and it has to feel good to have those horrible mats off of him. But honestly, the looks on his brother and sister's faces when they first looked at him were pretty priceless...

Preview of Coming Attractions...

You'll have to wait till tomorrow for the "after" photos..
It's quite a big change. Think "Lion in the Summer..."

Wordless Wednesday

 

The Rudy Report

Ahoy kitties! It's me - RUDY! - with your Rudy Report! So much to share...where do I start? Oh, I know! Let me start by telling you how intellectually challenged mommy is! You know how we have been without the innerwebs forever? Well, the reason was that Mommy kept entering her wireless router password over and over and over and over again. The only problem was that she did not enter it in caps. It only took her 4 days to figure that out. Hoo-Boy, what a stoopid thing to not figure out for 4 DAYS! I'm at a loss for words when it comes to this. But, we're back on the webs and now I can tell you about my visit to Tiffany the wonder-groomer. Lemme' back up a little bit. It's no secret that I HATE to be groomed. HATE HATE HATE! Unless, apparently, Tiffany does it. Almost a week ago (last Tuesday) I was unceremoniously scooped up and stuffed into my PTU and delivered to Tiffany. She fawned and ooohhhhed and ahhhhed over me, and patiently listened to Mommy who, in great and painful detail, told her about my recent illness and how Dr. Wendy finally gave the OK for me to get groomed (thanks Dr. Wendy, I will not forget this). Anyhow, Mommy left and I went with Tiffany to endure a bath, clippy-claws, ear cleaning and a blow-out which included a liberal dose of stink-pretty applied to my furs. They called Mommy to say I was ready to come home and when Mommy arrived to collect me, Tiffany said "I don't get it, he just sits there and lets me groom him. He's so easy..." I think that's where Mommy's head exploded.
You see kitties, Mommy is no cat-amateur. She's worked with thousands of cats in her shelter days and she's no feline-dummy. She can clip claws, de-mat and clean ears with the best of them. But me? No way. I will not let her do any of those things. It's just a thing I have with her. Don't get me wrong, I love her and she adores me, but when it comes to grooming, no thanks Mommy, I rather you didn't.
Puff, Powder and the Parkster have no problems with her getting up close and personal with their grooming. In fact, they kinda' like it. Maybe it's a guy thing...
Mommy promises to get some better photos of my new 'do, but really, I have sleek gorgeous furs now. No hunks are missing and if anything, I look maaaaarvelous! The only shaving I received was around my spot 13. And I kinda' like the look - less cleaning required from me. It's all good.
Keep those tails high kitties...

Computer Woes

Hita' kitties - just wanted to let you know that our computer no longer recognizes our wireless. Good times kitties, good times...
So...'till we get this latest computer issue figured out we have to take a little break, dunno how long, but I hope it will be short.
Oh, and the Rudester? He's all de-floof-ified. I hate to admit it, but he looks great and smells good. He popped out of the PTU like "Ta-Da!" What a little suck-up...
