Meeteetse has gone into the most amazing post-adrenal-surgery and season change shed. She had not lost any hair to her adrenal tumor (though she sure lost all her belly and chest fur, plus some leg and neck fur to shaving <G>) and kept a reasonable coat, but now her ENTIRE trunk is covered with a crew-cut of dense fur and her old coat is falling out en-mass so that she's got a LOT of shedding and dandruff production going on suddenly. After combing her I belong in a Head and Shoulders commercial; I should rent her to their makeup people! Had to empty the comb four times just doing her back. In all these years I think this is the most dramatic coat change I've seen in terms of massive loss with simultaneous massive growth. It looks like the entire thing is going to happen in less than a week at this rate, so she'll be walking around looking like Drew Carey for a while. Heck, at least that's not Mimi-character adornment, though Ashling aims to rival her in lipstick application. (Ashling like to rub her nose -- and often part of her muzzle -- in lipstick and show it off. Does it every time she gets a chance.) [Posted in FML issue 2520]
