Notes from a parish cat and his author Julie Mackenzie

My photo
I am Father Tom Fish, esteemed member of the religious team at Temptation of Christ Parish in the novels by author Julie Mackenzie. As to my background, I was invited into the rectory as a stray, laid on the charm, and was invited to stay, even honorarily ordained and no less spiritual than my sidekick Father Will. He dotes on me to high heaven and forgives all of my street cat proclivities, whatever the hell that means.

How the Fur Flies

Hi, furriends..

I know...we hear about it all the time. The housekeeper says the vacuum canister is filled to the gills after one run through in living room, dining room and kitchen, and it's all FUR!!! 👀

Now, she combs me every few days or so, but I notice I'm leaving clumps around anyway and the curtains...!! Who knew?


She took care of this right quick, I'll tell you!

Me? I don't even notice my furs saying bye-bye. I do feel a tad lighter, though! 😂

Yes Tom, there are chunks o'fur here too.
Sweetie will accept a few seconds of combing, then those murder mitts come out to play.

Maybe the curtains have fur, and THEY'RE the ones shedding? ;)

Doesn't take much for fur to fall out in the summer so you are not so hot. It seems to get into everywhere!

Dear Tom, My favorite place to leave my excess furs is on my Momma's lap, especially when she's wearing black. My brofur Opie, who is orange, leaves his excess furs on the white curtains in the bedroom. What were they thinking? Who knows! I've stopped trying to understand hoomons. Love, Dori
