How do you know you've got a good cat? When you're still alive after giving him a bath.

Yesterday as I was driving the cats home, the Kaiser's carrier fell sideways between the front and back seats. He got scared (wouldn't you?) and wet himself.

We hoped he'd take care of the problem himself, but the fact was that as of 1600 this afternoon, he still smelled of pee. We sadly concluded we'd have to bathe him.

So we got the handheld shower going with lukewarm water and washed him. He stood with his front paws on the side of the tub looking as if he were going through martyrdom, but Emperor that he is, he never moaned or whined once. We rubbed him down with towels and now he's in the bedroom with the portable heater on. He smells of Pina Colada from the Kirkland shampoo we used.

He did say to Steve though, "I'd rather you have fucked me in the ass than do what you just did to me." Steve was shocked to hear such language out of Friedrich's mouth.

The Tsaritsa snarkily comments that that's what he gets for being a pig, which made us think about washing her just to do it, but she's by far the more vicious of the two so we didn't.

It is so courteous of the royalty that they let us touch them so.

I know that The King had a bath once; I was lucky to get away unscathed.

Oh, poor baby! But I'm impressed he put up with it. n.n;;

...and yeah, not enough money in the world to make me want to attempt washing the Tsaritsa.

Well, what do you know. By that definition sucha is a good cat, believe it or not. Many years ago, when she had fleas, I had to give her flea baths. Much to my surprise, she put up with it. I guess it wasn't as bad as the nasty chemicals in the flea mousse that used to make her drool.

Wow, you guys are brave. Xander just looks at the tub in complete confusion as to WHY anyone would get wet for any reason. I hope never to have to try and bathe him.
