Ok, so today for the first time I decided to give my 8 mo. old and 6 mo. old kittens a bath. I started with the 6 month old kitten first, because he's the gentlest......or so I thought. He screamed and scratched and practically went through the shower curtain, so I finished the rinsing with just a wet cloth, that went much better. I didn't even attempt to put Cheeto, who is much quicker to bite and scratch into the shower, but just bathed her with the cloth and a little bit of cat shampoo which went ok. My question is, is this sponge bath better than doing nothing at all? I think it helps a little bit, but certainly not as much as the full bath, but that seems to not be an option as I value my life too much for that
and I feel bad for them putting them through something they hate so much. But I do have a pic of a mad wet siamese to post shortly
