Molly bit partner almost straight away so I had to take over the holding role and basically didn't go near her face
took ages with the electric shaver so used scissors and got all this off!! It's only from a small area though so there's loads loads more

Give her an extra cuddle from me. If she suffers you to live, that is.

Please tell me you aren't using human hair clippers on your cat, their skin is very elastic and can easily get pulled up and caught in the blades... not a good idea.
(I can get £6 nail trim or £11 groom/clip from a nurse at my vet surgery with the right equipment)

Yes but being very careful not to go anywhere near skin, know the skin is very elastic so only doing the matted lumps not just attacking body with shaver, that's why it's hard going and takes ages, we always stop if she is struggling or unconfortable
Vets have quoted well over a £100 as she would need sedating to do it all properly, they do a little bit now and then when at vets but it's not enough and soon comes back
We did most of the above with scissors

Oh thank goodness, glad to hear that (I have heard some horror stories from people who have waded in with the clippers at home) - sounds like you are being very careful.

He really looks like Radar from that angle. Different faces though (Toby has more symmetrical markings on his face than Radar)

I am annoyed because the only thing I have to take photos on now is my phone, and it's shit.
Here's one of Radar taken earlier this year, he has a bandage on his neck and a ruddy great bit shaved off his side (oh and yes most of his whiskers are shaved off one side too) and you can see he doesn't look 100% and is a bit miserable (it's not visible in this picture but on the left of his neck he had a thin plastic oesophagostomy feeding tube, hence the bandage to help hold it in place) - he is back to full health and full destructicat mode now though
Will try to get some better and more up to date photos soon.

I got home tonight to find Sultan the cat eating a LIVE pigeon. Pigeon is now in a bowl in the dark on the kitchen floor

So Dylan's stopped eating the wet food he used to really like (wainwrights tuna). We've fattened him up on the dry for the time being as he likes that, but really need to get him back on wet as the blood in pee is coming back.
It's so hard with wet food though as it's more expensive anyway, and to find good stuff that's affordable is a challenge. I think I'm going to see if I can get samples of stuff before we start buying multi packs.

Mine love as good as it looks and pets at home have it on offer for £9.50 for 40.
Got some of the doubly delicious yesterday.
The co-op sell them separately to try first.

to keep feeding him dry food while he is in this condition is big mistake.

We get the Bozeta wet food off of zooplus. It's good quality (93% meat) and convenient enviro-packaging and pretty cheap. (£2.50/kg in bulk, £2.70 for 6 packs)

Thanks looks good. I've ordered 6 different single pouches of various foods to pick up from vets at home on Monday, if we don't have any luck I'll look into that!
