Have you ever given your cat a bath?

Okay, you're probably going to think this is weird, but here goes anyway.

I've given some of my cats a bath. MooShoo, my hairless cat gets a bath at least 2-3 times a month because he has no fur for his oil to go into.

What I do when I've given my furred kids a bath (Moo's so used to it he just stands there and meows for all of 5 minutes) is I put a dish towel down so the cat won't skid around. I put about 3-6 inches of water in the tub. I then strip, hop in the tub with the cat facing away from me (gives me more control and saves me from getting scratched) and wet him down using a cup for the water. I figured I'm going to get wet ANYWAY so why not just hop in with them???

Works everytime. The only thing they WON'T stick around for is the blow dryer. I just try to rub them down with a towel to get most of the water off of them By that time, they're so pissed at me they run, hide and groom till they're dry.
