Note: This was not done on purpose (by the pet owner) and the cat is
fine
and back to normal.
********************************************************** "My
sister-in law is from Oklahoma and has a slight accent. She has
cats
and when she lived in the south she would take them to the groomers
and
have what is called a Line Cut. To her a line cut is when all of the
fur
hanging down below the cat's tummy is taken off because it gets matted
or
snarled). > > When she moved to Chicago with my brother, one of the
cats
fur got all > tangled up during the move so she took it in for a line
cut.
She was > quite surprised when she heard the price as it was twice as
much
as it
was
down south. She confirmed with the groomer that he understood what a
line
cut was and he said "yes, I know what a LION cut is." It seems her
accent
came out sounding like LION not LINE and this is how her cat was
returned
to her. > > (see PHOTOS) She cried for a week...but not as much as the
cat. It was > November in Chicago and the cat needed all the fur it had."

Gas in car to go to groomers $4.50 > Cat car carrier $32.99 > Grooming
fee $80.00 > Getting the look from one seriously pissed off cat
Priceless!

I decided to take an image from one of the challenges to add to this poor cat, to show how he might feel.
