Oh I sure hope his qualities come back sooooon. The first (and only) time I tried to bathe Montgomery I had no technique. He was so freaked out he climbed my face. He had claws at that point (doesn't have'm now) and actually climbed my face. I had puncture wounds and ripped skin on my FACE.

I use a groomer now.

After I read about poor Stumpy's ordeal, I called Myers and Tesh in.

"You're nine months old and you've never had a bath," I said.

"Why? Do we need one?" said Tesh, anxiously looking down at his fluffy white chest, of which he seems inordinately proud.

"Hey, I walk through the sprinklers every other morning," protested Myers, and this is true. He comes in all wet and leaves little Myers tracks all through the kitchen.

I looked at them. They don't look dirty. They don't smell.
Actually they're much cleaner than my house or my car.
Gaugie was probably just being neurotic, like X with her germfree kitchen. "Oh, all right. You can go."

They looked relieved as they walked out of the study.

"That was close," I heard Myers whisper.

"Yeah, I've heard those bath things can permanently destroy your kittiness," said Tesh. He looked down again worriedly at his chest. "I look ok to you, don't I?"

"Yeah, but maybe you ought to join me tomorrow for the sprinkler run."

Back when dishwashers were a pretty new gadget, I had a friend whose cat would jump into the sink to take a shower under the rinse water that sprayed out of that plastic gizmo that attached the hoses to the faucet. Don't know how it could stand the heat, but it did....crazy cat...
