I'm sure they would do it for a little giggle
Not so bad now I'm at home all day I am on it before they finish pooing lol
We have an anti bac cat shower gel type thing and wet a cloth with that and wipe it off with the cloth, or if hard, brush the hard bits out, or cut the fur out
They are wise to the brush and scissors now and tend to run the minute the yellow gloves go on!

really like talcum powder? I would've thought that would be big no-no the same as it is for babies?
I'm going to give her a bath as she's not had one yet but obviously wont want to be doing that all the time, fingers crossed it doesnt happen too often or I think I will have to see about clipping her hair round that area, she's not going to be a show cat anyway but still don't really want to go down that route :(
