Thank goodness, I don't know that I can cut my hair any shorter to avoid any confusion. I'm not saying that it's starving, but I'm definately saying that if it came intot he shop fat in both the tail and the body, that now it's showing that the tail fat has been used up. Depends on what he/she looked like when it came in to the store. Does that make sense?

:So in other words it's 'starving'? Jim, I would never expect you to be Renee.

::The tail is a place where they store fat. If it's pretty skinny and their body seems fat, my guess is that the "reserves" are used up and now they'll start getting skinny everywhere else, providing they're losing weight.
