Bathing Your Cat

We tried to give Our Cat a Bath once and only once.
It took three of us to do it and none of us got out unscathed.
Cats can turn themselves inside out to bite You or claw You.
So after a bunch or hydrogen peroxide and iodine and band aids I swear never to try and bathe that Cat again.
 
When Natayo was a kitten, my wife was fixing pancakes. After the mixing bowl was empty, she let him lick it out.
He stuck his head in, licked the bottom and got pancake mix all over his head.
My wife cleaned him in the sink. He didn't fuss at all, he just never stuck his head in a mixing bowl again.

Years ago when our kids were small, we had a cat that would jump in the tub with the kids, he didn't like it when I threw him in the dryer. :D
 
#1...Do not try this at home!!!!!!! Any videos you may have seen this being performed were made using professional actors.:eek:

You can get most of the dirt off by putting them in a pillowcase, hanging that from a tree limb and rigorously beating the pillowcase with a heavy stick.

The alternative method is put a heavy weight in it, tie a rope to the bag and throw it in the pool.:D;)

The Kitty Washer is a Hoot!!:)
 
Bath time for the kitty

We had a stray cat wander up to our house over 19 years ago. He hung around until last year when he lost control of his back legs and we had to put him down. He acted like a dog and I told my wife we should have named him "Lassie". She wouldn't go for "Lassie" and named him something else.

In his later years he began to neglect his grooming and I was forced to give him a bath. He really didn't seem to mind it. I'd been putting him into the pool for several years. These are pics of his last bath before he went to "cat heaven".

Seems like I recall an old Arab torture that involved cats. You stake a man out in the desert all day nude so he is sun burned all over. Then you roll him up with a dozen cats in a rug so none of them can get out. Then you beat the rug with brooms for a few hours. I always think of that when someone mentions bathing a cat.

Reminds me of some of the threads around here:D:D
 
We had two cats years ago that could be bathed without any problems as long as you remembered their bath preferences. One cat had to be dunked in a bucket of water while you kept a firm grip on the scruff of her neck. The other cat, an old Tomcat, would sit on the side of the shower ledge, and would allow you to shower him without any problems or complaints. You just had to remember which one liked which method. We used to joke that one of the cats was a Baptist (the one who liked to be dunked), and the other one was a Catholic.

Regards,

Dave
