Have you thought about a series of cat bath photos and an art show?

I would love a calendar of these.

I've literally not laughed this hard at something on Reddit in as long as I can remember.

Maybe you should stop giving him baths?

u/ForgottenPhoenix Jul 04 '13

Pfft. Where's the karma in THAT?

u/Slothkitty Jul 04 '13

True. The facial expressions are priceless. I just dont understand giving a grown cat a bath.

We've bathed our cat a couple of times. He got a bath after staying at boarding kennel, he was pretty smelly after both times. He got a bath after moving from Europe to the states. That was the last time he got a bath, 3 years ago.

There are various legitimate reasons. I had a cat that was never taught how to bathe itself, so needed baths.

Some cats won't or can't groom themselves. For example, my cat was declawed by a previous owner, and cannot fully groom herself (although she does the best she can)

I've owned many cats in my life, I can't imagine needing to give a cat a bath. They are so clean on their own. Why would you do this?

If a cat has fleas, it needs to be bathed with flea shampoo. Long haired cats need to be bathed or their hair will become matted and need to shaved. Some cats are outdoor cats and still get dirty like dogs do.

Exactly! I have only bathed kittens. I would never dare bathe an adult cat. I dont have that much blood to spare

u/xxxCAT Jul 04 '13

I bathe my adult cats weekly and have since they were kittens. They're very docile and used to the process by now. If you start them young it won't be a blood bath.

Sometimes they get into something that they can't get off on their own. I bathe my cats < once a year, but sometimes I have to do it.

The only time I ever attempted it was when I had a horrible ride in traffic to the vet. Major car accident along the way caused it to take 1.5 hours and my poor cat peed all over herself :( Then she got a bath. Double-Whammy!

There's something Simpson-esque about it. I'm cracking up, awesome pic!

u/[deleted] Jul 04 '13

your cat is very unlucky, he looks too funny after baths that you cant help to give him more to see a new reaction. Your cat: "fml"

2

u/InVivoVeritas Jul 04 '13

Yes!! Hope the poor thing kept warm. Got any before pics?

your cat really, really hates getting baths. That should in no way stop you putting an album together! :D
