I Furminated Riley tonight in preparation for her nursing home visit tomorrow. Her fur was just coming off when I petted her, so it was time. I just did it a few days ago so I didn’t get too much. Plus I just did it enough to get all the excess fur out because I didn’t really feel like brushing her for 20 or 30 minutes straight. Here’s a picture:
Riley says, “That’s good, Mommy!”
On a side note, I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned what a good alarm clock Riley is. She even has a snooze button! She sleeps with me but goes downstairs with the rest of the family before I get up usually. My dad let her in my room this morning when it was time for me to get up. She always has to come up to my face on the pillow and nuzzle up under my chin. She gets so excited to see me first thing in the morning! She gives up on me after a few minutes and comes back about 10 minutes later. She did that twice this morning. Anyway, I guess I’m thankful for my little blue alarm clock!

It never ends, huh? the furmnator is a great tool!A warm fuzzy alarm clock is waaaaay better than the other options!
No, the shedding NEVER ends! We cleaned out our air conditioning filter and it was just covered in Riley hair!I agree, a warm fuzzy (and extremely happy & excited) alarm clock is better than the other options!
