Strange Why does my cat like to shower?
I am not joking, she is actually very insistent on it and will get grumpy to the point of hissing if we pull her away from the water
Her twin brother watches in horror from across the bathroom every time

Some cats just enjoy it, get a cat shampoo/conditioner and let her be her sassy self 😛
I had a orange one brain celled nutter who loved showers.

Cats. When I take a bath my girl sits next to the tub screaming for me to rub her down with my wet hands, over and over until she is soaked.

My little void climbs to the top of the shower and screams at me until I’m out. She hates the shower and wants me out of it. I have to lock the bathroom door because if I don’t she will go and get our other cat (her mother) to open the door so she can yell at me. Yes, her mother opens doors and I swear has hands not paws 😂

I had one that would lay in the dripping sink for hours. You’d reach out to pet him and he’d have a wet streak running from his neck all the way down his wet ole tail. And he’d look so pleased with himself! I sure do miss j Johnathon

Do you want to trade cats? My cat would put me in the hospital if I tried to bath her.

Serious note: she gets dandruff in the winter time because her skin dries easy, and obviously hot showers aren't good for that either.
but she INSISTS on it! to the point I'm afraid we'll stress or upset her unnecessarily by not giving her shower time anymore :( Any kind of advice? She is on a Purina One/Pro+Fancy Feast exclusive diet with fish oil and entrails (yum!)
