apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

wow. i wish we could get our cat to love the vacuum as much as this cat too! instead, i find constant hairballs all over the house. on my bathroom rugs and even my bed sometimes.

That is one fat cat.

What a butterball! Hahha! God I wish I could do that. My cats run for their lives anytime the vacuum, blender, coffee grinder, etc. etc. goes on.

I can't tell whether the cat actually loves being vacuumed or if she is just too fat to bother moving.

Maybe she's just high on cat nip.

My teenagers have been complaining about my frumpy hair. Where can I see the hundreds of styles the miraculous flowbee boasts of? And this cat gives me the idea for a multipurpose cat vacuum with nozzles for hair cleaning, liposuction and litter box cleanup. Just got to solve the noise problem...

First of all, Kitty needs a diet. Second, I would fully have to tranqualize my cats to have them allow such a thing.

Whoops! Don't know how that link ended up above. It was a link I had copied from NY Apt. Therapy to look at later. Sorry.

that's so cute. HOW 'BOUT THOSE PILLOWS!

I'd be missing my eyes after trying that one on my cat. Surely that plump little thing is drugged......

That cat is probably not drugged, if my old cat was any indication. After she hit, oh, maybe 17 years and at least that many pounds, we had to do "cat checks" every day to make sure she hadn't died sleeping in her favorite place on the couch. One day Mom was vacuuming the cat hair off the couch, couldn't get the cat to move, and vacuumed right over her - and she loved it! None of my young, spry, jumpy cats would ever put up with it, I'm sure... just gotta get 'em old enough, fat enough, and lazy enough!
