The Hairball Habit

My last cat, Splash, didn’t shed individual hairs.  He shed whole hairballs.  I regularly found hairballs here and there in my house.  He proved especially good at leaving hairballs on my sofa.  Over the years, I developed a habit of checking the sofa for shed furballs as soon as he jumped off.

The other night, Desiree popped up from the sofa to retrieve something from the kitchen.  Out of habit, I immediately glanced at where she had been sitting on the sofa to check for hairballs.
