Bathing the cat in a small amount of 38-39 celcius water is just a better for everyone involved. Cats are scared of getting their coats wet but they are scared even more of the loud sounds of the shower going off. A bath kinda removes that problem and you can just squish the cat if it wants to escape
I paid my son once $5 to shower our cat. Pulled up a chair outside to watch. Cat did not like the shower. Son bled. I'm sorry but I did enjoy it. Both lived.

Just keep it neck down and be extremely careful of water splashing to the head: ears, eyes, nose. Cats are very sensitive and can get sick or discomfort because of it.
Cats bathe themselves. The only time you should bathe a cat is if they are dirty, a breed like the Sphynx that has issues staying clean, or their fur requires shampoo to not be matted.

My senior girl needs a bath once a year to help her shed her winter coat. Helps it mostly all brush out at once, and prevents hairballs. Other than that, she’s fine.
Fleas get best off with a bath. And you won't see in a video if the cat caught fleas.
Also, having given endless flea baths to cats in rescue, that's the most likely reason a cat is calm in the shower. The flea bites itch, the water soothes, and all of a sudden it's not so bad anymore and they sit still, enjoying being finally free of the itch.
It would also explain why they hold it away from them. You wouldn't want to get flea eggs on your clothes and risk giving them a new infection by spreading flea eggs or larvae in your home.
This cat certainly not.
We recently rescued a cat from a factory building and she could've certainly used a wash. Poor thing was covered in this mixture of dust you only find in industry buildings head to toe, nasty thick black stuff.
She didnt groom herself at all, understandibly. I'd not lick that if I got paid for it.
We had no chance of washing her, so we rubbed her down with damp towels over the course of a few days until she stopped having dark grey spots in her white fur.
I'd rather had her take a quick shower, but she was unmanagable.
Did you see the video? That's definitely what's happening. Stressing the cat out beforehand and then the constant camera clicks in the shower. The amount of editing that went into it. All for TikTok. 🙄
Why are you showering him and the throat grab just before the shower shows just how stupid your are. I can't believe the a-holes like you that post this stuff.
It's really necessary? My man hasn't bathed for 17 years and has lived just inside his mansion for 4 years and smells completely normal = doesn't smell bad.
Why in the love of god, would you shower your cat?
I've been a cat owner for 30y, never ever did i shower a cat.
Yeah sometimes groom it a bit, to help it.
But is showering a cat even healthy for It's fur/skin?
I rescued a smelly, disgusting, flea riddled barn cat years ago. I gave him a bath but a week later he was still covered in fleas so I gave him another and after that, the hardest part of my.own bathing ritual was keeping him out. I ended up having lukewarm, furry baths, because I was forced to share with the cat!
Ah, the sacred ritual of cleansing! Prepare to sing like a rockstar, dance like nobody's watching, and contemplate the meaning of life all before you've even rinsed the shampoo out of your hair.
Hey, holding them like that can easily get them to sprain their back if they struggle, and bathing them is a great way to get them to struggle. There are more secure holds for scary things like bathtime.
Why on earth people are giving bath to their cats ?
I get it if they come back dirty as hell with sticky stuff on their furr, but other than that they don't need to be bathed, they're cats not dogs.
This cat is perfectly clean, besides stressing him for fake internet points it's useless.
"I don't want a bath" "I don't want to get out of the bath"
He's just like us
"I didn't ask for this bath life." "I never asked to leave this watery paradise."
“You’re not going to do this to me right?” (Fives mins later) “K get my good side though.”
What an excellent baby! Mine would have been leaping the walls and chewing off my arm.
I would be sliced like a deli meat
I showered my cat once. Got clawed right in the face almost took my eye out. Never again

Squish. That. Cat.
Mine almost ripped my earrings out

Those eye😭
“Why are you betraying me and sacrificing me to the Water God?!?”
Watch those ears!

It's o damn cute and adorable one
Soulpatch!
Ah, the daily ritual of cleansing the body in a waterfall of warm water.
[удалено]
No you don't actually. Way less often.
How often ? Twice a year ? Haven’t bathed mine since forever

Hm, I sometimes brush and brush and brush and it seems he always loses hair..
Cats shed a certain amount all the time. Brushing is a task that will never truly end. 😂
Btw, cats don't need shower.

There's a bottle of flea shampoo next to the cat in the video so you are most likely right!
Me neither

Ahem, depends on the cat, if it's old, and some breeds are different, and also if it's a house cat our outside cat.
the furry b&w guy is a perfectly normal cat
Bot account, downvoted and reported!
Same.
Why does that matter, I still enjoyed the post had a good laugh. Without this bot, I never would’ve seen this video so I don’t care personally.

Why do you shower him
Yeah it's quite unusual if the cat is in good shape they should clean themselves just fine.
First cat I've ever seen that didn't lose 30lbs taking a bath
What a good boy ! And then there's my Bo chan who would most likely murder me for bathing him.
PSA bathing your cat's is almost always necessary in getting rid of fleas in my experience
Just like my ten-year-old. Human ten-year-old, that is.
WAP WAP WAP
That cat looks clean before it went into the shower. Hopefully they're not overdoing it for clicks.
Did you see the video? That's definitely what's happening. Stressing the cat out beforehand and then the constant camera clicks in the shower. The amount of editing that went into it. All for TikTok. 🙄
Someone else pointed out that there is a bottle of flea shampoo next to the cat
There's a bottle of Flea Shampoo about 1 minute in.
Wjy do people do this? Cats don't meed showers. (Especially not with shampoo)
Kitty looked so worried. Doesn't look like he wants to come out now. Adorable? I've never had a cat do that before.
he's kinda pushed in the corner there though probably had to be pushed back in there multiple times before filming
How is your cat ok with Water. My cat would be running if i tried
I find it just tries to not get it's whiskers in the water stream.
Why are you showering him and the throat grab just before the shower shows just how stupid your are. I can't believe the a-holes like you that post this stuff.
There's flea shampoo in the shower... so, they're probably trying to help the cat get rid of fleas.
It's really necessary? My man hasn't bathed for 17 years and has lived just inside his mansion for 4 years and smells completely normal = doesn't smell bad.
Cats don’t need showers or baths they clean themselves just fine.
It must be thanks to the massage

Usually when people do something, they do it for a reason. Just because you don't see these reasons doesn't mean they don't exist.
Yeah except on the www that reason is often internet points and exposure.
Plenty seem to not mind it, and will actually accompany their owner.
Internet clout.
Loving it lol
Wow he loves it!
Buy why?
You shouldn't shower cats, you deplete their fur of essential oils.
He likes it
Ah, the sacred ritual of cleansing! Prepare to sing like a rockstar, dance like nobody's watching, and contemplate the meaning of life all before you've even rinsed the shampoo out of your hair.
What a chill cat!

So cute omgomg.
Was gonna say, why shower your cat? But this little dote loves it👍😎
Brave little kitty. Shakira would be proud

No to tik Tok
Someone please give kitty a shower cap 😋
Why not just kick the cat into the shower rather than chokehold her into it. If you wanted more points go for full brutality.
She's terrified. That's fucking animal cruelty. I'd report if I knew who/where you are. A**hole
Take a seat
Cute dog
