    Don't WASH the CAT!

    Unless the cat has a physical problem, it will clean itself.
    Also, it will Traumatize the CAT.

    Soap will remove the protectant film on the fur that protects the cat from parasites.

    Some cats like water more than others. a small wading pool for toddlers "may" tempt a curious cat.

    • If introduced to the bathing proccess gently and patiently, there is no reason a bath should in any way traumatize a cat.

    • I'm a groomer, and some cats do need to be bathed and it is not traumatic.

    • Not all cats that don't groom have a physical problem, sometimes they don't have the instinct, so you need to help them out.

    • If anything, the noises the cat will make will traumatize YOU.
