A question.

Ebby I'm very glad to see you live in silk and brocade- that's where you belong
And yes Chris: my friend's Angie's black Persian gets a lion cut in summer and he is all grey when the fur grows again. When in California, Bev (Mango's and Peaches' mom) gave me that wonderful Zoom Groom brush that gets a lot of similar grey underwool out of Tigris. If you could spin it it would make a nice sweater

WOW! I'm looking at this and looking...and still cannot believe how different it is when it's off her skin(The color).

It's reassuring to know that Ebby is not alone in having a grey undercoat, thanks all.

Barbara, it's nice you noticed the silk & brocade. The throw and matching cushions are Thai silk, the jade green and sage green are Chinese silk. Not stylish maybe but I so love the feel of them, and it's a plus that Ebbs looks so good on them!
(p.s. the leopard and lion ones are just plain ol cotton but I love them too. )

Jazz's undercoat is the same color. It kind of startled me the first time I brushed her.

I do have to say, WOW to the amount of hair. I bet Ebby feels a lot lighter now, lol! I'm sure I could get that much off my guys but no one will sit still long enough to let me do it.

That's really interesting, about the undercoat being lighter. I never knew that. That is about the same colour as the hair pile I get from our grey girls.
The cushions and throw are absolutely beautiful!
