    Best cat grooming/bathing video I’ve ever seen, even compared to any videos done by professional grooming and bathing. The bucket and cup is the best part. Great idea! The loud scary running water is what makes bathing a cat impossible! Amazing video! Thank you! ..Adorable kitties as well! I have a ragdoll cat that is the same flamepoint coloring! Only mine looks twice as large.. he is an 18 pound big boy! All muscle. Not overweight, just huge frame!

    I'm seeing a lot of comments about how this didn't work with their cat. This is normal. If you have to bathe an adult cat for the first time they are going to freak out. If you want to be able to bathe your cat regularly you have to start when they're little, otherwise getting them used to it is going to be a challenge even doing things right.

    dude you litteraly saved my life, i wanted to start washing my cat because i read somewhere that its good for him, but i always thought my cat would kill me if it touched a drop of water. so i put him in my bathtub, preparing for the worst but for my surprise when i started to gently pour water on him, he just went with it and didnt even hiss or try to get out. i was extremely shocked because it was the first time i bathed him.

      I am so glad you were able to bathe your cat without any issues! Yeah the first time a cat experiences water is important. If it’s negative every time afterwards they will fight you tooth and nail. Since you were so gentle he never had a bad experience so you should be good in the long run!

    "How To Bathe A Cat" joke
    I. Know that although the cat has the advantage of quickness and lack of concern for human life, you have the advantage of strength. Capitalize on that advantage by selecting the battlefield. Don't try to bathe him in an open area where he can force you to chase him. Pick a very small bathroom. If your bathroom is more than four feet square, I recommend that you get in the tub with the cat and close the sliding -glass doors as if you were about to take a shower. (A simple shower curtain will not do. A berserk cat can shred a three-ply rubber shower curtain quicker than a politician can shift positions.)
    II. Know that a cat has claws and will not hesitate to remove all the skin from your body. Your advantage here is that you are smart and know how to dress to protect yourself. I recommend canvas overalls tucked into high-top construction boots, a pair of steel-mesh gloves, an army helmet, a hockey face-mask, and a long-sleeved flak jacket.
    III. Use the element of surprise. Pick up your cat nonchalantly, as if to simply carry him to his supper dish. (Cats will not usually notice your strange attire. They have little or no interest in fashion as a rule.)
    IV. Once you are inside the bathroom, speed is essential to survival. In a single liquid motion, shut the bathroom door, step into the tub enclosure, slide the glass door shut, dip the cat in the water and squirt him with shampoo. You have begun one of the wildest 45 seconds of your life.
    V. Cats have no handles. Add the fact that he now has soapy fur, and the problem is radically compounded. Do not expect to hold on to him for more than two or three seconds at a time. When you have him, however, you must remember to give him another squirt of shampoo and rub like crazy. He'll then spring free and fall back into the water, thereby rinsing himself off. (The national record for cats is three latherings, so don't expect too much.)
    IV. Next, the cat must be dried. Novice cat bathers always assume this part will be the most difficult, for humans generally are worn out at this point and the cat is just getting really determined. In fact, the drying is simple compared with what you have just been through. That's because by now the cat is semi-permanently affixed to your right leg. You simply pop the drain plug with your foot, reach for your towel and wait. (Occasionally, however, the cat will end up clinging to the top of your army helmet. If this happens, the best thing you can do is to shake him loose and to encourage him toward your leg.) After all the water is drained from the tub, it is a simple matter to just reach down and dry the cat. In a few days the cat will relax enough to be removed from your leg. He will usually have nothing to say for about three weeks and will spend a lot of time sitting with his back to you. He might even become psychoceramic and develop the fixed stare of a plaster figurine. You will be tempted to assume he is angry. This isn't usually the case. As a rule he is simply plotting ways to get through your defenses and injure you for life the next time you decide to give him a bath.
    But at least now he smells a lot better.

    • @TheCatButler
      @TheCatButler  3 роки тому +61

      My cat tried killing me in the beginning too haha. So definitely empathize with you! I think me pouring water from the cup really help to bring their anxiety down. Before any sound of running water would bring the devil out inside them. And having them face forward most of the time prevented them from scratching me. I also tried to be as patient with each step so not to stress them out. And eventually they weren't afraid of the water anymore.
      Another thing I noticed that may have helped is that I let them watch me shower. I think the cats observed that if their parent was also getting a shower and no harm came to the parent, the water isn't too bad after all!
      I hope this helps! Trust me showering a cat is hard.

    This is very well done. You clearly explained important points in detail. Like, cut claws before bathing, do it correctly & avoid the quick. Use shampoo for cats, pay attention to under parts & be sure to rinse thoroughly. I'll share a few more tips. I use a shower wand with 2 hoses to extend reach & manipulate where I need it. I reduce water pressure to keep cat calm & the continuous water flow speeds the process of proper rinsing. I like Adams Plus Flea & Tick Foaming Shampoo & Conditioner for Cats & Kittens. It easily works into a light lather, cleans well, leaves skin moisturized, coat shinny & smells nice. Hold head up & start at neck, work up chin but avoid eyes & ears. Direct water away from face. I have a small plastic ladder cat can stand up on to feel safe. I also give them a calming CBD treat before starting. I towel dry next to a small heater that quietly blows warm air. It keeps cat warm while I use a small slicker brush to gently brush hair in alternating directions. This efficiently drys their coat.

      Its a good idea to give a cat its first bath as a kitten, to get them used to it and keep them from being fearful. Just remember they typically don't need bathing at all, since they clean themselves. Only if they are extremely dirty, or can't do it themselves for whatever reason. Often it only becomes an issue when they get elderly, for indoor cats.

    This helped immensely thank you so much! Got both cats washed and blow dried with no injuries! I never expected them to tolerate the blowdryer but they both enjoyed it after a little while! One was schmoozing my foot while I brushed and dried her. Now they're floofy and smell nice and no more bugs! Everyone wins! You rock! 😻😻

      Yeah my cats were very scared in the beginning as well. I think in addition to using the method in the video. I also let them watch me shower every day. I thought if they saw the parent shower they might think it’s safe and water isn’t too bad after all! I think that helped with their anxiety

    Usmc towel was the first thing i really noticed. It just rang inside of me because im an Army vet and respect that such a hardcore person as a us Marine is so careful with their kittens. It shows that even though youre a Marine. Youre a person and a good person for caring for your animals so gently. Alot of people think of marines as these big hard mean guys and really it just shows how awesome you are man. Bad ass enough to be a marine but gentle enough to bathe a kitten as calmly as that. Thats crazy skills 👍🏻 thanks for the tips too. Not running water next time i bathe my cat. Bucket and cup is so smart.

    A good way to get cats to not be so angry during bathing is to start when they are young and reward them with treats afterward! (rewarding with treats for good behavior is how we got our cats to stop being so scratchy or squabbly during baths)
