It's a good idea. Given the temperature of the habitat of the animal is suited to a lesser coat one must comply on a logical basis. The cat actually looks pretty good shaven, it's a massive beast, quite muscular. How about your other cat, does it get shaved? I'm assuming that the shaved cat is male which gender is the other cat?
It depenes on his mood. He usually sits pretty good when I'm shaving his back but once I get to his side etc, he starts to get pissy. Sometimes it takes me a few days of shaving little bits at a time cuz that's all he'll sit for.
It doesnt really effect the petting. I mean it feels weird right after a fresh shave but he seems more affectionate with less hair so I end up petting him more. He rolls around with a happy look on his face. That and soooooo much less hair gets on the furniture.
Actually its the opposite. He's so much more playful when he's got less hair and seems tonnes happier! I think the "lion" look gets to his head cuz he attacks our other cat a lot more too, lol!
in the very beginning it moved probably sdomone under it

Yes, my orange lion is a male. The other one is female but she's a short hair so she doesn't need to be shaved.

That's quite interesting. Is it an inside cat?

Ya they both are.

Was it difficult to shave the cat? Didn't it object? How does it effect the petting ritual?

Does the lack of receptors (hair) have an impact on it's mobility?
