POLL: What's the longest you've ever gone without taking a shower/bath?

I was in the hospital with broken bones so I could not by doctors orders take one for a month. The nurse's aide gave me sponge bath's which was embarrasing in my private area but it was necessary and she acted like it was quite normal so I was at ease.

I don't shower or bathe, per se. I'm a cat. I groom myself at least twice a day, I guess. But there was a time back last winter when I got really sick after a dog almost killed me. I was taken to a place where some humans stuck me in a cage and put some tubes into my body. I was REALLY sick. Didn't eat or groom for a really long time, until my human came to visit me. Might have been as long as 5 days before I thought to look after myself. Disgusting, I know ... but I was so sick.

My human still loved me. That's amazing to me. I must have been a mess but that didn't seem to matter to it.

Now that I'm all better I make sure I look really handsome ... at least twice a day. I love my human. And it loves me.

4 years

2 days

Two or three days. We had an ice storm two years ago. There was no hot water, and I tried once to do the cold shower, but it was awful! So I just waited for the power to come back on and for the hot water heater to heat the water up.

Like 3 days, cuz we had a really bad winter and the pipes froze so there was no water, as soon as the water was back on I took a really long shower! Lol =)

I've lasted 2 weeks just to see how long I could go without bathing. I was in 5th grade though

I hate to say it but i think almost a week and a half and that was like last year but now I started to take showers EVERY day because of that. Ughggh

A week

BQ: Because I didn't like the showers/baths in italy. I fckin hated them

A week; camping with teh Boy Scouts. Maybe 2 weeks, because I've been depressed in my life before.
