Sammy bath
I don't like to give cats baths because they do a good job of it
themselves. But Sammy got some diarrhea from something, probably more changing food even though I try to do it slowly. He used to only eat dry Purina cat chow. He did well on it so I was slow to want to switch. He was also an outdoor cat so he had more to do to burn off calories. He got a big blob of diarrhea on his bottom and I wasn't able to pick it off becuase he screamed at me Tongith I decided to run him a warm bath. Used the blow dryer on low to mostly dry him but he wouldn't let me dry his marvelous tail so he's left to take care of himself with that. I turned up the heat in the house and I'm sweating, so as soon as he's dry, it has to go back down. At least the poop blob is gone -- CAPSLOCK–Preventing Login Since 1980. |

Hopefully the diarrhea has cleared up. Persia gets so upset going to the vet she throws up in her carrier and it gets all over her fur. This is why I've switched to house-calls. It costs more but I can't bear the thought of her being so upset. Then upset even more when we get home and I have to give her a bath. Jill |
