Thread: Bath Time

I like a plastic comb...a people comb. Fine tooth, but not baby fine, and remember to slant the comb at an angle while combing...sort of lay it down like you are using a potato peeler..(I know weird but I can't think of anyother discription) the teeth of the comb will not dig in and be as rude, it glides better.

If the comb gets stuck..back out...and try again..if you are doing a kitten, remember the kitten will remember this as a good time or a bad time...and which ever she remembers...is up to you. You need though to be done before the kitten is...always be the one that wants to stop first. Don't allow the kitten to tell you when grooming time is over.

Remember, try to make it a good time for kitty...make it feel good if you can.
Have fun.

After quite a few baths over the years, my wife determined that the temperature of the water needs to be what I would regard as slightly too warm for comfort. Since then, we have had far less trouble. I figure it makes sense since a cat's body temperature is warmer than that of a human. I wish we had learnt about the temperature earlier.
