Weekend Cat Blogging: Upsie's Beauty Tips
I often get questions on how I manage to stay so gorgeous. First, besides good genes and exercise, finding a personal assistant who understands your sense of style is crucial. For instance, here you see my Charlize Theron Oscar Look which would have been impossible without an assistant to tie the bow.
Second, always make sure your assistant combs your fur every day for a minimum of 10 minutes. If they forget to do so, yank out large tufts of fur with your teeth and swallow them. That should bring them running with the comb.
Third, remember to give back to the community. After a good combing, I have my assistant knit sweaters from the fur ball, for the poor hairless cats of the world.
And last, go to Eatstuff where Clare provides a meeting place for all the styling cats and their personal assistants.
Upsie must love being brushed...

Upsie is truly the Angelina Jolie of Catworld--not only is she giving back to the community but staying gorgeous at the same time! It's a difficult job but somebody has to do it!

Ha! You should make a kitty hair sweater for someone over in Weekend Dog Blogging! I wish my kitties would stand being brushed. They think it's an animal running around them and attack the brush... ahhh!

These are priceless tips I will have to incorporate into my own kitty grooming routine. Do you have a show on the Style Network?
PS: Thanks for visiting my blog the other day!

Boston Chef,
I saw your "Yin & Yang"--quite a combo there!
Shannon,
Upsie loves Angelina Jolie and keeps asking me if "Brangelina" have had their baby yet.
Stacey,
I'm so glad that Upsie likes being combed. It's hard to keep a long haired cat unsnarled if she/he won't put up with it! I've had that situation too with other cats.
Clare.
Upsie just came in covered with leaves and dirt and left the debris all over my floor. I hardly call that stylish!
Kristi,
Loved reading about your birthday party. It looked like a LOT of fun.

I love the Charlize Theron bow. Perhaps you could help my Aggie out with a few fashion tips!

Linda,
Upsie says that Aggie should sit down with her personal Assistant, (you?) and come up with a look that draws OOH and AAHs. Stay away from anything like Bjork and her swan dress though.

What a kittie! What kind of pink comb is that? Sure seems to do the trick. My Miss Tilly has had problems with fur knots lately.

Fran,
The comb is just a plain old human type comb. I had combs designed for cats, but they disappeared! It's amazing how fast long haired cats get big snarls in their hair, isn't it?
