I have never bathed my kitties because they do a pretty good job of it themselves. Once in a while I wipe them down with a damp wash cloth.

Bella goes to the groomer's every 6 weeks for her bath and clipping. Since she is white she really starts to look a little "off white" at about 4 weeks. I think I may start bathing her myself at the halfway point, at 3 weeks, just to keep her white and sparkling, especially now that the warmer weather is here. She loves being in water, even in the bathtub!
