She must feel so much better when shaved. How on earth do you hold her down to run the clippers over her coat?

I ended up needing to lightly sedate her. We wrap her in a towel like a burrito and I do the back half first. I couldn’t get her very well at first which is why the first cut was so ugly 🤨 Asked my vet for help & she suggested light sedation. Worked really well this time. I even got most of her

Sounds like a four hands project. She's thanking you profusely with her manic kneading. Your vet sounds wise. My porch cat (spoiled feral cat who has had canned cat food twice daily & heated beds, toys, etc. for seven years now) hates the foam antibiotic I somehow applied to her scratched up nose.

It’s most definitely a 4 hands project! My daughter helps. All of the beings in your life get wonderful care ❤️

Thank you, PandaMom. Yes, my pets are super pampered. And that's just how I am. I'm so glad your feline feels cooler and much better now. That's really awesome that your daughter helps.
