PSA: Do NOT ATTEMPT CLEANING TECHNIQUE WITH CAT!

LOL - when I was a kid I was spending the night at a friend's house. We were having breakfast when all of a sudden his dad screams from across the house.

He had just gotten out of the shower and the cat couldn't resist playing with his "dangling cat toy". We all laughed our asses off, except him of course.

Years ago I found that the only practical way to wash a dog as big as Coda during the winter is to get in the tub with her.

True true. That's how I bathe my Great Dane. Our last house had a big shower with dual showerheads - the BEST doggie wash setup ever!

My offer still stands for editing help if you ever want to put out a book.

Do you type this stuff because you feel you are supposed to here? It really wasn't that interesting at all.

It's just an internet website amongst millions, nobody cares all that much.

Wow man, completely naked? Really, really unnecessary. Put on some shorts and get wet. Completely naked is just asking for trouble. Although, it did get a REALLY big laugh out of me.

PSA: Do NOT ATTEMPT CLEANING TECHNIQUE WITH CAT!
It depends on the cat. One of mine, Scotty, managed to turn himself into a bloody mess after eating a rather large, pregnant mouse, and so it was bathtime - it was like a blind baby eating a furry little chocolate cake.
A shower curtain would have been quite inadequate to contain a panicking cat. Fortunately, the other shower had one of those pre-fab "stalls" with glass on all sides, and a door. He may have been suspicious when I made him eat the mouse in the shower, as he's seen running water in there.
Yes, it was bathtime.

I did what Ned did - got in with him. Scotty was nervous.
The the water turned on. Letmeoutletmeoutletmeoutletmeoutlet!!!!

His response was interesting though - he'd go nuts and try to paw his way through the door if he was sitting on his own, but if I held him under the water, he just hung there and took it, without so much a struggle, meow, or even a grumble.

Sorry, no poop though.
