Friday Funnie: How to Bathe A Cat

This method should only be tried by fully insured, paid professionals. (author unknown)

How to Bathe A Cat
  1. Thoroughly clean the toilet.
  2. Add the required amount of shampoo to the toilet. Lift both lids.
  3. Obtain the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.
  4. In one smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close both lids. (You may need to stand on the lid so he cannot escape). CAUTION: Do not get any body parts too close to the edge, as his claws will be reaching out for anything they can find.
  5. Flush the toilet 3 or 4 times. This provides a "power wash and rinse" which is quite effective.
  6. Have someone open the door to the outside and ensure that there are no innocent children between the toilet and the outside.
  7. Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids.
  8. The newly-clean cat will rocket out of the toilet, and run outside where he will dry himself.
Sincerely,
A Dog Owner

And if the cat bites you, go to the doc and get antibotics right away. My husband just spent 4 days in the hospital because he didn't follow said advice. Cat bites are as dirty as human bites, so the er doc said. Who knew?
