Boodie was looking a little scraggly, so my human took her into the enclosed patio for a comb out.
She is pretty happy that she does not have to get a bath like I do. In fact, she looks positively giddy.
Although Boodie could get a comb out more often, she is nowhere near as messy as she used to be. Part of it is because she has a high quality diet. Back when my human was still giving her and Binga kibble and not-so great food, she used to mat a whole lot more. This time, even though it has been a while, my human only had to comb out a couple of small mats.
Boodie actually likes her comb outs… at least for most of the process. Towards the end she does get a little fed up and hissy. But that’s because she’s not used to being handled for more than a couple of minutes.
Boodie gets lots of treats during her comb outs. I don’t even want a treat until I’m almost done with my blow dry, but Boodie gets treats before the comb out and every couple of minutes, and then when she’s done.
She has no idea how easy she has it.
Sweet Boodie <3
Boodie sure is beautiful!
We missed this post, too! We love to see Boodie get her comb outs. She’s so pretty.
I got flea-combed yesserday. No mats and no fleas, but I still hated it. Though i DID fell oddly better afterwards. ~ AYLA

You look beautiful, Boodie! The comb out was just what you needed. Great job at training your human to give you treats while you’re being groomed. My kitties have me trained really well too. 🙂
Oh poor Summer you look SO hard done by!
Boodie Boodie Boodie what a cutey, cutey, cutey! I love her markings! I bet she is relieved that she doesn’t have to get a bath. I don’t do baths either. Mom tried once – and only once! Tee hee hee! Boodie reminds me of my furr-iend Raena Belle. Mom asks what kind kibble Boodie eats now? Is she a Ragdoll or a Himmy?
Boodie has a great treat face 🙂 you do look a bit jelly in the last pic, Summer…and Boodie smug 😀

Boodie looks gorgeous…and happy after all those treats.
Hi Boodie! We don’t see enough of you, looking great after the comb out. My brothers and I matt really bad with our coarse, semi long fur even though our human constantly brushes us. She’s amazed that food could have a big difference and she’s going to look more into that. If you’re human ever wanted to do a small post about that it would be greatly appreciated cuz that is news to us and we could really use less gnats and more fun time.
Boodie is smart, getting all those treats for getting a comb out. Summer, you should ask for more treats, too!
Why not get more treats. Summer you need to ask for more treats!
Gee, mum should start giving treats when combing JJ.
He gets a bit upset when she tugs his furs 😉
Heck, we would all sit for brushings for treats.
Georgia loves brushes the most and does not want a treat(though she would not turn one down)
Boodie looks great!
Purrs Georgia,Julie and JJ
So good to see Boodie! You do look jealous of her, Summer 🙂
Boodie is such a beautiful kitty! She looks extra gorgeous after combing!
Poor Boodie. The only blog time she gets is for comb out days.
Boodie , you are a beautiful girl and you are lucky to have a human who knows exactly how to handle you 🙂

I like that I have very short fur! My Mom does run a cat brush over me, it feels good and she says it is good “practice”. Practice for what I don’t know! She also plays with my toes! I am ticklish on my back feet! Are you ticklish?

Boodie is a beautiful lady ! Purrs
Binga looks fabulous!!
Wow, Boodie is a beautiful cat!! And you too! 🙂
Boodie, you beautiful girl! I love it when it’s your turn for combing. And yup, Summer……she doesn’t know how lucky she is not to have to have a bath.
Boodie, getting treats is the REAL game, isn’t it?!?
LOL!
Two very pretty kittens!!
It looks kind of like you’re “photo bombing” her, in that last picture!
Boodie is so pretty, and the combout makes her even prettier.

Boodie, you are so gorgeous, we think you should make appearances more often. It does sound like you have it pretty good with all those treats. We usually don’t get any until the end of being brushed, and those of us who like being brushed think that is the treat! But then we often get treats for no reason at all.

She knows how to get treats Summer. Learn from her.
Nice to see Boodie, she is a beauty. Her fur came out great.
It’s good to see Boodie. I don’t see her nearly as much as you and Binga.
Aww – we love Boodie!
interesting that the diet makes that much difference. i hadn’t thought of it but since i improved diego-san’s diet, his mats have lessened as well…
Boodie , you sure are a pretty cat and you look so good after your comb out.
Boodie is a smart kitty…always demand treat payment up front…
Hugs madi your bfff
She is so pretty. And totally deserves those treats.
Boodie is a cutie!!! She looks nice and fluffy and relaxed after her combing session that’s for sure!
Hugs, Teddy
We always love seeing posts about Boodie. She is looking extra super=gorgeous after her comb-out!
