Hi everyone:

I have a one-year-old "rescue kitty". When we got him a year ago, we had no idea he would "turn into" an Angora. He is truly beautiful with the traditional Angora hair and fluffy tail and thick mane. My question is, "Should we have his hair cut for summer?" He does not go outside, but it does tend to get warm inside even with the a/c, as we live in the desert Southwest. We've already noticed that he tends to stretch out in cool spots in the house and it's not even that hot outside yet.

Any advice would be very much appreciated. We've never had a long-haired cat before.

Thank you all,
Keely and Tony the Angora (plus a little bit of something else)
