Goodbye, Dear Luxor and Sweet Eric

Luxor and Fat Eric were two of our furrst blogging furriends, they also were friends with our big brother that came before, Texas.
Our Mommy is crying, but she is sure Texas, Luxor, and Eric are playing together at the bridge with all the other blogosphere kitties.

What's this thing called a Furminator?

So Mom has been talking to Dad about how much shedding we've been doing lately. They have been talking about getting us a Furminator.
But Mom says they cost a lot more green papers than a regular brush or comb, but it just looks mostly like a normal cat brush/comb to her. She wants to know if it's really worth the extra 20 green papers or more or if anyone knows how to get one cheaper?

WE want to know if we will mind this thing. We don't mind normal brushes and combs, we like those!

Thanks to all our friends for any advice!

Purrs and headbutts,
Niko and Cloud
