I can't really believe this amazing video ...... this cat belongs to the sister of one of the moderators on the Schnauzer forum I belong to.

It may seem a stupid question but unless theyve rolled in something obnoxious why would you want to bath a cat? Do show cats get bathed? Are you meant to bath your pet cat? Mine even hate the brush - i do brush them despite protests. Mindy is the only one who sits quietly & doesnt appear to mind getting groomed

If cats could talk....

.."ohh yeah,.. hey, that's not too bad actually..Think I'll just stand and ponder for a little while...I like the on-site massage therapist,..but..something just doesn't seem quite right'...
Oh yes now that was it!!:( That snake-hose-hissy thing, don't like that! No sirree, don't like that!'
'I guess I'll just stay here until we're done..I tried to climb out once and I just kept slipping straight back in...o well...'

Surprisingly, he took it quite well. I was mildly disappointed not to see him wrapped up in a towel afterwards though. :p:-P

..and yes, Helen, like you, I wondered the same question but have since learnt that plenty of show cats are bathed prior to a show. Depending on their coats, they are bathed two days beforehand so that the coat doesn't go like a dandelion clock if it isn't meant to be. Others on here who have show cats may be able to give better informed replies. I know a breeder of devon rexes who says some of her kitten families who show do tend to bathe their little ones but others just give a good wipe down and cleanse the ears.
