I low key want to know that racoon's skin care routine. Flawless.

I'm gonna need some context for this. Why is Patrick Stewart dressed like a bard?

Oh wow, that's a blast from the past! Thanks for linking it!

Remarkably racoon shaped actually.

A long time ago my roommates and I shaved just the tip of our cats tail, like the last two inches. It was absolutely hilarious.

People are going to crucify me for animal abuse but I swear the cat was totally cool with the process.

Did he give you a dirty look after he saw the result?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

She didn't care at all but it brought everyone who visited much amusement.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

That sounds hilarious. I don't see how that is abuse.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

I mean, it's a dick move, but doesn't qualify as abuse imo. No harm would come from it by itself, and if the cat didn't object at all, it's not worth arguing about.

But my grandparents had to shave their cat's tail for a few years. He would suck on it, and in the process pull out hairs, which would end up with sores where they had been pulled. So the vet said to keep it shaved down, if the cat would tolerate it. The cat did, and no more issues.

I mean if you only fid it once and the cat was not hurt by it I personally would not call that abuse. Sure you did it for no reason but the cat did not really suffer for it.

Tell JD Vance that's a cat about to be dry rubbed.

That is a MOSTLY shaved raccoon.

Once I saw a raccoon poop and I was like "no way raccoons poop that big" but this does tell another story.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

Oh, they do. It has a distinctive, raggedy kind of look to the turds, doesn't it? Filled with all kinds of potential for disease.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Was there some medical reason for this? Seems too extensive to have been done for surgery.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

It's just a little thing called style, perhaps you've heard of it?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

Looks more like a white pet onesie.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

I got this off Instagram - it was not explained why the raccoon was shaved, but it showed him growing the fur back in later videos.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

Good shave.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

Minus the tail (or maybe not) this resembles a famous politician.

I'm calling the police.

Why in the fuck would you ever do this?

Poor raccoon.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Looks like it's in an animal care facility of some kind. My guess is that it had some crud in its fur that they couldn't wash out easily, or maybe a pest infestation like lice.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

Crud in its fur wouldn't require a freaking straight-edge razor shave with hot towels and hand fluffed shave cream like this. And if it was pests they wouldn't shave, and if they did, they would have shaved the tail and face as much as possible as well.

I'm sure this was for a valid reason, I just don't think it was one of those reasons.

Looks more like hes wearing a suit

Man, I gotta read the whole title before clicking on the image.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

I wish you had not. Nobody should be cursed with this knowledge.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

What a choker!

Nope, too smooth, way too smooth.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

yeah im like I can't get my chin like this with just some hair clippers.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

You can't just show pictures of me in the bathroom without permission. You'll be hearing from my lawyers.

I don't know what the context of that GIF is... and I probably shouldn't want to... but I do.

Shaking it for a new fur suit.
