Today I am picking up my coat. I took it in to have some real fur added to the collar. The stuff that was on the collar was getting all matted and ugly, but the down coat is still in great condition. Now I am starting to understand why they use real fur here. The weather wears down everything else. They pulled out a big fox pelt for me to look at. The pelt cost 45 dollars and they would only sell me the entire pelt. Not just a piece of it. It was a bit of a shock to see the feet and tail and all attached but I did it anyway. I don't know what I will do with the rest of the pelt. Gary will probably just use it as a means to tease the kitten.
