But great tip on the woolite.

Reminds me of a scene from the Stephen King book and movie "Dreamcatcher". It's a good argument for turning the light on for those late night bathroom stops. :eek:

What I've learned from washing a cat.

1. close the lid FAST
2. usually takes three good flushes, and most importantly
3. DO NOT STAND CLOSE TO THE BOWL. He still has a good reach
between the seat and bowl

errrr. do not call PETA. this is a JOKE!!!!!!! :roflmao

One way or another I knew when I opened this thread that somebody would suggest washing the cat in the toilet.:rolleyes:

And the sad thing is..when my wife and I had our cat, he always was fascinated with the toilet......especially when it was flushed.

Another similarity with shaving: We don't recommend doing either in the nude. Clothed is better.

In the case of shaving, anything will do.
In the case of washing cats, light protective gear (ie, heavy sweatshirt) is probably recommended.
In the case of shaving cats, nothing short of a full-face motorcycle helmet, a heavy leather jacket, and elbow-length BBQ mitts will be even remotely safe.

Don't ask how I know.
