tigra 0 #28 March 25, 2005 Just MY experiences as someone who has shared my home with numerous kitties for most of my life.......... I had to give one of my cats a bath because we had a flea problem. He's pretty laid back, but I knew he'd hate it just the same. I actually got in the tub with him, held him with one arm and used the hand held shower head with the other. I managed to do it with only a little bloodshed, too (mine of course!) and that was really only from him trying to hold on to me. There is NO WAY I would have tried it with my other cat who also had fleas at the same time. With him I had to make do with frequent combing, flea powder, and spraying the house. I also had to bathe my mom's cat once because she had some skin irritation and needed a special shampoo. She was an angel about it, and I didn't even need to get in the tub with her! And I had to wash one of mine down when he was sick and had diahrea (sp?), but that wasn't really a bath and the poor little guy was too weak to object. For the most part though, I haven't found it necessary to bathe my cats and the stress it would cause them usually outweighs any benefits. I have heard that if you've got allergy problems, bathing your cat in distilled water can help remove or neutralize the dander, but that might be BS.

skycat 0 #29 March 25, 2005 Mem loves showers, I have to ban him from the bathroom or he would jump in with me every morning. I don't have time to dry and comb him so he only gets to join me Saturday mornings.Fly it like you stole it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kai2k1 0 #30 March 26, 2005 Thats how i give my labs a bath. They've even gotten so smart that when I put on my swim trunks and go the the bathroom they'll run for cover. There's no truer sense of flying than sky diving," Scott Cowan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
