I haven't posted for a while 'cause I've been kind of busy, but this is an update for those of you who still remember this thread: Matted kitty fur. I just got an e-mail from my pet-sitting boss that the old kitty with the severely matted fur was put to sleep on Sunday (11/24). I was told that the kitty stopped eating on Saturday and was no longer able to stand, so the owners took him in to the vet the next day and had him euthanized.
Hopefully the kitty will now rest in peace. No more pain or discomfort. He was over 21 years old!
