    it's part of my job to bath cats and dogs. I seriously have no idea why people want their cats to have a bath. Most cats surprisingly give up once the water hits them, but soo many fight it and boy do they fight back. I got bit really really bad once while giving a cat a bath, my work sent my to the emergency room at a near by hospital because we weren't sure if the cat had rabies yet *it was a new client* a really fat 20 pound cat. Bit my arm left 4 deep blood gushing sores. The doctors made me scrub it with bedadine scrub, they gave me some kind of shot *no idea what for* and a wrap to try to keep my bite wound coverd.

    After this job i hate cats, lol did i tell you guys a cat gave me a black eye by swatting at me with it's razor sharp nails, left me a black eye for a week.

    So if any cat owners who want to have their cats bathed, PLEASE DON'T DO IT! for the sake of those of us who end up bathing it. lol

    No no no, you got it all wrong. There is a very easy process to bathing cats. And it's available as an instructional video:
