Open Note-let to the Furry

Beloved Cat!
I realise it was a mistake of epic strategic proportions to dump and leave my (long, lace-style, fringed) black scarf over the couch headrest last night. Because you, being bright and having tons of experience with wool blankets (on which you're not allowed, reason see below), manage to snuggle up, and lean heavily, until gravity pulls the poor things down and you can sleep on them. Which - you guessed it - happened to said scarf.
As a consequence, I spent half of my train trip today pulling tricoloured hairs out of the thing. One after the other after the next. Just *how* you manage to shed like nuts and still have fur has always been beyond me.
Though having had to wriggle and contort (behind locked office door) to liberate yet another one of those tricoloured hairs out of my bra cup pretty much tops the indignity! Now I'm itching all over. No tuna tonight for sure. Mediocre amounts of love,

And it's really marvellous, the not-bald-thing, isn't it?

I can't imagine a featherless bird for instance, that would just be ridiculous. Cats can manage being bald better since I've seen cute bald cats.
My dog got his hair shaved off because he rolled around outside and got somebody's gum in his fur :-( He looked like a giant rat, and he was so ashamed he hid under the couch every chance he got.
So yay for not-bald pets!
