If you’ve ever tried bathing a cat, you know that it’s not an easy job. Like, at all! With cats being pretty persnickety about their grooming, luckily, they don’t need to bathe very often. Still, there are times when cats get into messy situations prompting their human servants to have to lend a hand. Well, our latest video of the week caught a glimpse of what some kitty parents go through and while bathing a cat is never easy, some are pretty darn fun to watch! Check it out:
These cats really, REALLY hate the old scrub-a-dub! Some of them are so irritated by the sensation of being wet until they sound like they’re actually yelling, “noooo”!
Why is Bathing a Cat So Difficult?
Explanations vary as to why cats hate water as much as they do. Some experts believe it is because water slows them down. See, your fur baby is used to being quick on her feet and moving underwater quickly turns into a slow-motion event that most just cannot get used to. Other explanations include a cat’s fur feeling weighted down by water, as well as water dropping a furry feline’s body temperature to uncomfortable levels. As entertaining as videos about bathing a cat can be, we understand that these precious little ones are serious in their protests of bath time, so keep this in mind and be super patient the next time you’re compelled to bathe yours, ok?
