Finally a step by step guide on bathing that furry devil! I mean, loving companion...

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Things You’ll Need:

  • A Cat
  • cat shampoo
  • towel
  • patience
  • strength

Step1
Step 1: Ready yourself. Put on your protective gear. Be as swift as a ninja. This is what you've been training for!

Get the bathroom ready. Put a pitcher or a couple buckets of warm water in the tub, shampoo right next to you and towels ready.
Step2
Step 2: The cat will know what's coming. When you see it in the room, sleeping, cleaning itself, or running away from you, pounce on it. Gently, of course. Hold the cat firmly like a baby and bring it to the bathroom. Try not to let the cat scratch your eyes out in the process.
Step3
Step 3: Put the cat directly into the tub. Don't let it crawl or jump away. Pour warm water on the cat, avoiding the face and ears. Take a palmful of shampoo, lather up the cat, and rinse about 4 times.
Step4
Step 4: Dry the cat well. It could catch a cold, and those are never fun. Try keeping the cat in a nice warm place until it dries completely. Should this procedure go poorly, try to recover from the traumatic experience and, if this proves impossible, get a dog.
