It's almost National Hairball Awareness Day. On April 27th, cats across America will be celebrating by coughing up a giant hairballs. It's weird that they would celebrate something so gross. Sometimes Chips hairballs are so gnarly that Linda gets a little queasy. She would rather scoop the litter box than deal with cleaning those suckers off the carpets. (By the way, they are not balls at all. Chips look like the Lil' Smokie franks Taylor used to eat in is lunch.)
