Clean, clean Kitty

 

They say you shouldn't bathe your cat

but mine sure didn't care

Though afterwards, I coughed and spat

Two slimy balls of hair!

Author's Note

Written for a promt--hair. The idea for this isn't original, and came from a joke Steve Martin told years ago.

It's been a while since I've bathed a cat, but I remember the hassle and the need for a first aid kit afterwards.

Thank you. My oldest sister was a cat fanatic and had over 50 of them at one time. Not many got baths.

My mother had this cat that would get into the garage when you least expected and would get covered in grim. Somehow, I was the one that could get the bath done without losing an eye. That cat made me into a dog person.

What a hassle it is to bath a cat. I get scratches, torn to bits. Part of the reason I just own a dog now. lol!

Thank you. We have dogs, too, but cats are also good to have as pets.

It is said that they clean themselves. I suppose that explains the rage they inflict upon the one attempting to bathe them!

[Samuel Dickens]

Thank you.
