YIKES! That poor cat - and I wonder how many scratches the woman giving the bath ended up with.

You have to accept that some people find the clip not nice, and I'm one of them, I'm entitled to my opinion am I not?
I welcome a debate but there's no need to lambast me for not agreeing with what's going on in the clip.
And thank you lvpets2002 for also stating what I did, that the way Sandra bathes her cats is okay, I'm just thinking of the well being of the cat that's all. Sure some cats may like the attention and being bathed, or tolerate it, then that's fine, this cat obviously didn't. All I was saying is that.
I just hope the next time they decide to bath their cat that they do it better so the poor thing isn't terrified.
It hurts me to think of the cat being terrified and scared that's all, and surely no animal lover wants to see any animal frightened, even if only for a few minutes?

None of like to stress out our cats but sometimes it's necessary. That's all I was saying...I don't agree with the folks that want a pretty smelling kitty so "let's give him a bath". Out of mine, Dixie has an awesome natural smell...kind of like electrically charged air; Toby smells like clean fur but I've been standing downwind from Churchy one too many times to not consider plunking him in the tub, he often smells like decay...it's nasty! They're all inside so I don't know where he's getting it from.

I guess I overthought your first reply. I don't think the video was horrid...to me horrid would be foo-fooing (complete with dainty smelling talcum powder) the cat but I did feel bad for him...mostly because he was covered in wet stuff, lol.

I promise that I'm one of the most amiable folks you'll ever meet, I spend most of my time amused over even simple things, lol. I didn't set out to make you feel bad (or anybody else) and I hope I didn't.

Tell me about drama..... with huskies you KNOW drama....LOL.....

actually I think kitty behaved quite good but that´s just my opinion.... I´ve seen much much worse hehe......;)

Fuzzybuns, no problem at all :) It's hard to convey what you're saying when it's written down because you can't see facial expressions or anything like that, so lots get taken literally wheras it may have been sideways, if that's the right way to put it!! :o
You didn't make me feel bad.
In a way it's good that this had made a debate because it's nice that different people feel so passionately about animals. Better than living in a world where nobody cares about them at all. :(

The Only Time I Bathed A Cat Was Because Mr Fluffys Poo Was Getting Caught In The Long Fur Behind His Tail.
Pu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He Hated It Too And Was Also Howling!!
Thats A Funny Video And I Hope It Was Worth The Trouble For That Lady And Her Companion.
