What blade did you use and what was the lather and aftershave of choice? What was the brush? Did the cat enjoy the scritchiness of boar or the silky feel of badger? Inquiring minds want to know.
My neighbors used to have a cat like that. It was stupid as hell. It would always rub up to me looking to be pet and I felt terrible pushing it away but it felt so weird. It even loved me after I laughed at it when it got sunburned. Unfortunately the thing had some heart issues and would have frequent seizures so it had to be put down.
