I was also going to comment on those airpalne ears but smokey the elder beat me to it.

You are one BRAVE Lady! I have never and will never attempt to bathe mine! I would not have any arms left when I got done with the first one. Beatle looks like he is a hudge cat and could have tore you up.. You are BRAVE!!!

It looks like you have done that before and have a great set up for those times so my guess is you have a lot of experience and have done this before, but it is clear to see, they were not happy and I would be scared of the revenge part... I had one that when I treated her for fleas, and turned her loose, she would run streight to my daughters bed and pee all over it..
