Its good to have a cat you can blaim..
Although scratches from cats are way more evil.. those cats should clean their paws before scratching anyone..

The first two or three shaves I finished of with a DE. I had already turned a bit red going over the same spot with the wrong angle over and over again.

I used the DE once more when I was in a hurry and found that the shave with the straight was better.. I guess I've raised my standards of what a good shave is.

Good luck and have FUN!!!
