Yes, and a cat may actually get colder much faster. So remember to towel them down afterwards. They need to keep their temperature level just like us, and they have got this small body and their fur will quickly evaporate the water, cooling the animal down.

Here's the non-recommended one-step method: Just about the same time that this video came out, my 14-year-old purebred silver tabby visited my back yard for her very first visit to the outdoors. She walked directly to the edge of the pool and fell straight in. Less than 60 seconds had elapsed. I had been watching her closely from a distance and dashed over, since I was sure she didn't know how to find the shallow end and exit. She was about three feet out to sea. She saw me and paddled over to me, no fuss, no panic, no noise. I lifted her out, and dripping wet she calmly walked directly back in the house and has since shown no interest in going outside.

This is how we trained our kittens, except for the last step - we bath them in a plastic wash basin. It's not deep, they know they can easily get in and out, and we put a towel at the bottom, so it's not slippery. The toys are only used during the bath, and they also get a different treat after the bath. The result is they actually enjoy their bath. It's also important to realize, cats don't usually need to be bathed. But sometimes it's inevitable. For example, my cat once jumped into a pot of meatballs in chilli tomato sauce. >.> When something like that happens, it's usually an unpleasant and stressful experience for your cat. If that's the first time ever you bath it, it will associate the bath with the bad experience. And you don't want that. So train your kittens BEFORE such an experience, so they see bath as something pleasant that helps, not that makes the trauma worse.

I dont even have a cat.

But he absolutely horrible for baths, he seemed sorta okay but then suddenly flipped out and clawed me really bad.

I'm sorry to reply to a 9 month old post. This was a video on cat bathing, you said your cat purrs during bathing so it's not so bad. I'd like to mention that cat purring doesn't always mean satisfaction - some cats also purr when they are very nervous or in pain. You need to observe their body language - is the cat is at ease and relaxed or stiff and alert. Some cats - especially some wild cat species and half-breeds - do love water and may genuinely enjoy a warm bath, some of the others can be taught to a point. I'm not accusing - just trying to clarify possibly confusing behavior.

Thank you for this. We got a pair of 8 week old kittens last week. At night we keep them in the spare bathroom till they're old enough to be safe without supervision. The toilet lid stays down, and they sleep in the sink that's filled with squashy pillow. They have food, water, and litter access. The thing is, we use the spare tub to fill things like the watering can, and the gravity water bowl jug. Since the kittens live exploring, we want to acclimate them to water. Anyway, it can be very hot here in summer, so we're hoping to be able to offer a tub with a little water for chilling. This video will help us teach the babies that water is fun, and cool too.

I absolutely love this video and I absolutely love you, man! It was so thoughtful and considerate of the cat's feelings, very gently and slowly introducing them to the water and letting them know it can be fun too, it touches my heart a little bit being honest, because I feel like even the biggest cat lovers are tend to be very harsh on them (sometimes you need to and I get it, but I feel like it's a bit excessive at times), so it's such a relieve to see someone who actually treats the cats just like another human. A bit of fun story (or I do personally find it kind of fun): My cat, she was always curious with water. She did hated it, but was also very intrigued to it. She loves to sleep in the bathroom on the counter next to the window, because there was always very, very warm and she did that back then when she was young too. No one was bothered by her - and in fact, most of the time you wouldn't even notice that she was there in the first place. If she was sleeping there, no one dared to wake her up. So, if someone was washing their hands or showering, she could just watch on her own if she wanted to, and I guess she did. She quickly understood that she can get a fresh, running water from the bathtub or the sink (other thing is that she cannot really run the water herself unfortunately), so she tend to go there a lot if she wanted to drink. She was constantly leaving marks of her paws all over everything. When someone was bathing, she tend to jump on the door's handle to open, just to check out if no one is drowning (or simply because she wanted to sleep or drink water). One time, it was just happening, when I was taking the shower. She wanted to get in so I let her. I ran a water from the sink, so she could drink, and I expected her to leave right away, but instead, she sat on the corner of the bathtub, which was in a paddle of water, and just stayed there. I tried my best to shower next to her to not make her wet too much, but it wasn't really possible. To my surprise, she didn't ran away, in fact, she stayed with me the whole time. Her back was all wet, but she seemed to be quite comfortable, not bothered by any mean. It seems like she just wanted to make sure that I wouldn't kill myself there by an accident, because right after I left the bathroom, she did too. I remember one time when she was sitting in the bathtub drinking running water, I locked the outflow just to check how she's going to react. She didn't have any problem with kneeling in it at all, but when she was done drinking, I didn't wanted to force her into staying there, but I think that the first 2 steps she passed already :D!

awww thanks for the kind words :D

I absolutely love your two kitties and the fact that they’re getting baths and they’re socialized and all of the things that you do with them I’ve seen some other KZread videos and people do you instruct you about the proper ways to do things but their for babies aren’t always happiest participants they are sometimes just kind of they’re doing it in the mirror the other two just show product and not really too many pet activities together I like the fact that all of your videos of with your kitties and how happy they are and that they just radiate comfortability with the situation that they put in for the video aspect

Thanks for the kind words! Yeah I try to lead my cats with kindness and compassion. It’s how I train them and earn their trust.

Good info, thank you.

My cat comes inside dirty with ants in his fur. So this is so helpful! Thank you!

Hi, I can't imagine the effort it took to create this video and it was amazing, so I just liked and subscribed to your channel. Your techniques were genuis introducing your cats to water. They seemed so calm! I love how the curious overcame their fear of the water 😺😸. These are some beautiful and sweet cats! You are truly blesssd! Thank you for sharing!😻

Thank you so much 😀

the fish toys are eye catching!! and your cats are cute! nice video

I'll do everything you listed! I live in a country with very warm summers and have no ac so it's the perfect time to teach her how cooling water can be

Very impressive. I am sure that must have taken many slow steps and lots of patience. I have cared for many cats in my life, often rescuing strays who need bathed to get rid of all the fleas and dirt in their fur, and baths are rarely an easy task. I'm sure it helps if you start with younger cats or kittens too when they are still very playful and willing to try new things. Your cats are beautiful. Gorgeous long white hair. Happy training!

Thank you the kind words and sharing your beautiful story! I am always heartened by the people who rescue strays. Its tough work! A lot of respect. It did indeed take awhile for them to get use to it!

Omg !! Thank you so much for some very helpful information 🙏🙏🙏 We have a cat with a spinal injury that needs to be cleaned a few times a day. I’ve been desperately searching for a stress free way to clean her 🙏🤗 Thank you so much !!!!!

I remembered when I was a kid taking a bath. I was playing with my first cat with my big toe. He even did fell in the bath and jumped out. He did it with my mother,too.

Thank you

Thank you so much for this great tips and amazing video. I'll def try this out with my new kittens, letting them get to know water is fun from a young age. Thank you!

This video was so good! I'm adopting my kitten soon and bathing was the one thing that made me anxious. I felt really uneducated about it and considered a monthly expense at the groomers but now I'm stoked to try this as an upcoming fur parent!

Cats should rarely ever be bathed unless absolutely necessary on a Vet's advice.

What a great video! It just makes sense

This is amazing! I hate some of the other cat bath/falling into water video compilations on KZread, people just standing there laughing at the poor terrified cat, it borders on abuse in my opinion. This slow, calm approach is great!
