Good shave again today. The mild Henson is always a comfortable and easy shave. Hardest part of my shave this morning was keeping my cat from drinking the sink water while I was shaving.

My cat has never shown the slightest interest in my shaving gear - at the price of avoiding chicken and raw-fish scented soaps and after shaves.

He's a curious guy. He doesn't care about the gear, he just wanted some water.
