Yoday was bathtime at my house :D . ( "The Pet's House" is the name of my web-site).
It was NO fun at all, as Maya was fighting really hard to get away. Inka was easier, but in fact I and my kitchen were about as wet as my cats :rolleyes:

Here is Inka:

She looks like a drowned rat :D

Zazou may not be washed yet, because of her recent operation!

I dont think that I will bathe them,as I am too old to try,and get hold of them.If they need to be bathed,I will let Dr Marsales do the job,he has two excellent assistants to help do the job.

I gave up on trying to bathe kitties years ago! I don;t know what I would do if I HAD to bathe mine... YIKES!! I would be just as hottified as they are of it.... HOW in the world did you manage it without getting scratched to pieces???

My hubby was holding Maya VERY firmly, while I washed her with a cloth and I was wearing elbow-long gardengloves :rolleyes: . With Inka it was "rather" easy, as she likes it to be in water with her feet. Of course, after a while she realized that meowmy was planning to wash her from head to toes... :eek: ; but by then meowmy had finished the job :D
I am NOT looking forward to next time though :(

So sorry to hear about you having such a hard time bathing the kitties due to that ringworm :(
I must have the only cat here that actually likes to get a bath....yes ...you heard it right....Abby loves her bath, and here are some pictures :D

funny thing is, even this afternoon I was hand washing a few items in the tub, and she kept trying to get in it! :eek:

Long time since I had to bathe a cat but when I did I put a collar or harness and leash on first so if he escaped from the sink I didn't have to chase a soaking wet cat all around the house.

Before we had 8 cats, I did bathe 5 of them!!! Only thing they seemed to mind was the hair dryer!! But, they sure looked all nice and fluffy when it was over!! The girls will look lovely once they dry off. Also, loved the photos of the cat in the tub! My Spunky would run around in the shower!!!

Oh my! :eek: I haven't tried giving any of my cats a bath since they were really, really tiny. I don't think it would go over very well now, but I hope I don't ever have to find out for sure! Best of luck to you---I hope they all get over the ringworm, and it never comes back!

When I first took Zerlina to Petsmart to get her toenails clipped, I called and asked if I needed an appointment. The groomer answered "no," then said specifically that they do not bathe cats!

COWARDS! :D

I'm so sorry that you have to deal with ringworm. Poor babies. :( They both look as pitiful as mine did when I had to bathe them. Good luck.

Poor kitties, they look miserable! ;)
I am glad one of the 4 bathings is over...only three left, Lut. Good luck, it would be nice indeed if you can get help from a vet assistent next time. Do you think your girls will be more reticent next time? They will for sure remember when approaching the bathroom... :confused:

Oh my, it will be a tremendous hassle to give Maya her next bath!! Today, she was with me in the kitchen, looking outside at the birdies. Then I started filling the sink with warm water to do some dishes.... . Guess who rushed to the livingroom like a flying rocket??? Yup yup, sweety Maya :eek: :rolleyes:

Poor you Lut and poor cats. I'm glad it basically went well with their baths.
I hope the next time will go easier for you. Okay, okay. I can dream can't I. :)
