How To Bathe A Cat

[Samuari]

HOW TO BATHE A CAT
===================

1. Thoroughly clean toilet.

2. Lift both lids and add shampoo.

3. Find and soothe cat as you carry him to bathroom.

4. In one swift move, place cat in toilet, close both lids and
stand on top, so cat cannot escape.

5. The cat will self agitate and produce ample suds.
(Ignore ruckus from inside toilet, cat is enjoying this)

6. Flush toilet 3 or 4 times. This provides power rinse, which
is quite effective.

7. Have someone open outside door, stand as far from toilet as
possible and quickly lift both lids.

8. Clean cat will rocket out of the toilet and outdoors,
where he will air dry.

Sincerely,

Puddles, the Wonder Poodle

9. Spend the next 10 years wondering where your cat has gone to.


But at least he'll be a clean cat out in the wild for a while, should be able to get himself some pussy

Sing to them. Don't get frustrated when they initially resist. Sing to them. Hum or talk sweet. Reassure them, but let them know who is in charge.

Mine submit and don't seem to resent it.

Ya think it's his own cat? I assumed this developed as a result of cat-sitting for a (now former) friend.

Always happens

With credit to Steve Martin the fur always sticks to my tongue when I give the cats a bath.

Try gargling with WD40 first.

Ohmy... I have two cats, wouldn't THINK of giving either one a bath... one is 16 lbs, don't think he'd fit in the toilet!

My cat would stop to kill you with her razor-sharp claws before she exited the bathroom.


Puddles is still around?
Oh good!
Some things shouldn't change.

 

[hogjack]

Thanks

This is the kind of insight that could have saved me a whole mess o' problems.

I only actually bathed a cat once, and she was a kitten at the time. She's gotten rather dirty in her box during the nite, spilling her water and soaking her food before laying in it. She didn't mind, but I never had to repeat it. Seems to me, cats are smarter than dogs and stay cleaner. I kinda like dogs better tho. They don't seem afraid to get good and dirty.

Thanks for the tip..

I can put away the pressure washer now, and the cat's hair is just now starting to grow back.

I've found that the washing machine works well...and they just love the spin cycle

He doesn't have to fit down the exit, just into the top. I've known a few 16-20 pounders in my day, each and every one would fit in (if you're quick about it.)

 

[Evil Attorney]

My cats would kill me, so I'll let you do that.

I've got a 25 lbs, a 20 lbs, an 18, and a 16. I don't think I'd be bathing any of them in this way. First off, the Maine Coon (20) would have my guts for garters, and the rest all still have their claws and teeth!

Hi cym! It is good to see you back.

Well, Puds is still around, but her user name is too long for the current format, so she posts under my name and signs her stuff. You can usaaly tell when she is posting, because her spelling is better than mine (not that's saying much.)

 

[LukkyKnight]

I've got a 25 lbs...

Now that's a big cat, but tell me more about your garters, please.

ROFL That's priveledged information
