    They are just curious and trying to learn about their 'world' the best they can.

    Our kitten loves to dip his paws in the bathwater. I know he'll grow out of doing that, eventually.

    My cat loves to go between the curtain and the liner when I'm in the shower. She sometimes sticks her head around, and doesn't mind getting wet.

    in many circumstances cats do no longer want bathing and could sparkling themselves without your help. if your cat has walked in something stinky although, attempt taking a heat damp washcloth and wiping off her feet (or whereever else would desire to be grimy). i does no longer attempt putting her in a limited area and pouring water on her, by way of fact that would desire to be traumatizing to her, somewhat if she has a prior reason to have a particular dislike for water. If she's completely lined in something disgusting (rolled in it, have been given somethign poured on her, etc), placed a kitty harness on her, and placed her interior the kitchen sink and carry her with one hand and gently spray her with the different hand. The water would desire to be heat adequate so she isn't shivering, yet no longer so warm as to be uncomfortable (spray it on the interior your wrist to attempt). additionally, do no longer spray her face. Afterwards wrap her up in a dry towel and carry her. exchange towels often so as that she drys off and remains heat. do no longer attempt to blow dry your cat. she would be in a position to freak out, and if she has any claws in any respect will probable rip you to shreds (that's adventure talking right here, lol). Untimately although, she's a cat and could shelter herself. heat damp washcloth if something. reliable success!

    My cat sits by the bath tub and meows angrily at the water. He then waits until I get out so he can lick the human flavored water.

    I love cats. They can be so weird!

    It is a mystery, I think cats, knowing that you are safe in there, they feel safe their. We even put two large marbles in our tile shower and our two play hockey i their spare time. It is a heck of a racket in the middle of the night, but if they are havoc fun...it's worth the noise!

    We did have a cat who, on a leash, liked to wade into the koi pond of our condominium! They are all individuals, some like showers, others like bathtubs (empty) of course.

    cats are dumb as posts, they probably make sand castles in their little box when you're not home. ADDH for kitties!
