AS SEEN ON TV - Cats have been watching TV for years, jealous of the commercials for Ronco GLH, “Great Looking Hair” for men and women with thinning hair. While the product called GLH is not suitable for animal use, Romco has announced their latest breakthrough in a long line of fantastic inventions: GLF, or Great Looking Fur, for cats! It comes in all solid and bicolor fur colors as well as Tabby, Tortie, and Torbie.
Scabbers [pictured above left], a nearly bald Sphynx from New Jersey, tells us that he had the pleasure of being one of the test subjects for the new line. Although he hasn’t been suffering from hair loss, per se, he has been bald for most of his life. Poor enough to not even be able to consider a hair transplant, and too prideful for a toupee, Scabbers says that GLF finally gave him a chance at an inexpensive solution. He tried out the Romco Great Looking Fur product and says that he is quite impressed with the results! The fine, almost lifelike hair fibers give him added warmth for those long afternoons sunbathing in the window. He also says that his roommate, identified as “Princess,” no longer makes fun of him for looking as though he’d been shaved! He is still ridiculed for other reasons, but as of now he still has yet to determine what that cause might be. Scabbers tells us that he is still very happy with the “spray on fur” and he plans to keep using it!
Since GLH has had such astonishing results in humans, and GLF seems promising for cats, I decided to give Great Looking Fur a try myself. In only one application, my fur seemed to have grown by 4-5 inches! It also seemed quite natural and comfortable to sleep on. There are only two warnings printed on the side of the can: “Consult veterinarian before use” and “Caution: May cause hairballs, weight gain, and obsessive-compulsive washing.” Luckily, GLF washes off easily and tastes like ocean starfish. In fact, I washed all of mine off within a few hours of application. If you are looking for a long-term solution for your hair loss, you might still want to think about something more permanent such as a hair transplant, medication, or a wig. But if you just need to put on a good look for your next cat show or a family reunion (does anyone actually go to those things?) then this may be just the thing for you!
