Wait, what? The wigs are really made for cats? Or are they doll wigs that have been repurposed for cats? (If so, why?)
Boggled. (Also old. That may be why I’m boggling.)

…if that ever becomes a thing, I’ll regret every hairball and used pet roller I’ve thrown away.

I can see that pic of the bewigged kitty being used in a major ad campaign for perfumes.

All kidding aside, I thought “merkin” was the name for a cannon mop (and not for anything else).
BTW: Online dictionary states that “merkin” is probably a variant of “malkin”, with “malkin” being (amongst other things) another word for “cat”. So… a merkin on a malkin?

Right back atcha- TIL that merkin could mean cannon swab as well as pubic wig. If I kind of squint at it, I can kind of see how the cannon swab meaning might have evolved from the original usage.
I’ll let you connect those dots for yourself.

Those are shorthair cats; to kick it up a notch, you really need longhair ones. You could knit a new kitten weekly out of what ours leave around.

They shed enough in my apartment thank you.
The one on the right is a near dead ringer for the one in the article
I have generic looking cats.

My furballs might consider those fancy snacks. Would look great on the orange one with a big ruff
It drives me nuts when they try to eat the ball of fur I just brushed off them.

“Floof n’ Fluff” would have been nice.
