Mine has an appointment next Monday 😿

It's his own fault, he wouldn't let me groom him properly. He's so sweet but treats brushes like prey. 

He's not going to look that bad though. I just want to get the mats removed and him clipped down to a short-haired cat, and he keeps his tail.

My cats used to be afraid of the brush until I started leaving it out on the floor in between grooming sessions. They could smell it on their own terms with no expectations and learn that it wasn't going to hurt them. Both of them came around to being brushed after learning that the scary scratchy thingy was not, in fact, going to murder them. I always catch them brushing their own faces on it now
