How to wash a cat
1. Put both lids of the toilet up and add 1/8 cup of pet shampoo to the water in the bowl.
2. Pick up the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.
3. In one smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close the lid. You may need to stand on the lid.
4. At this point the cat will self-agitate and make ample suds. Never mind the noises that come from the toilet – the cat is actually enjoying this!
5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a “power-wash” and “rinse.”
6. Have someone open the front door of your home. Be sure that there are no people between the bathroom and the front door.
7. Stand well back, behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift the lid.
8. The cat will rocket out of the toilet, streak through the bathroom, and run outside where he will dry himself off.
9. Both the toilet and the cat will be sparkling clean.
Yours sincerely,
The Dog  |

I had to bath my cat 2 weeks ago.
He came home covered in some sort of sticky plant sap and started foaming at the mouth when he tried to lick it off.
I expected to be scratched to ribbons but he actually enjoyed it  |

Cats land on their feet. Bread always lands butter side.
So strap a piece of bread to the cats back butter side up.
Then drop the cat on the floor. The laws of physics will kick in and the cat will just spin in mid air
Spray with a hose pipe until cat is clean |

I've found that washing a cat is a 2 person job, the one holding said moggy needs to wear thick gardening gloves. Then you have to prepare yourself for the aggressive looks, the cat strop and mouse entrails outside your bedroom door in the middle of the night when you get up for a pee and don't turn the light on.
Who said that cats aren't vindictive. |

Surely, the perfect solution...mess is contained. And, with a combined dryer, this has to be a winning combination?
*please note, that in the summer months, hanging your cat on the washing line is more ecconomical than using a dryer... |

I've always wondered, if you strapped a slice of buttered toast to a cats back (butter facing upwards obviously) and dropped said cat from a reasonable height, on which side would it land? |

"Washing machine - woollens programme, no spin cycle and then cool, dry."
Has the added advantage of exercising your cat whilst getting it clean. A 30 min cycle is probably about 10k steps. So, if you tie your Fitbit to the cat before washing it, thats you're steps done for the day.
Double win. |

This right here is pure genius 
On the other hand it is best not to meddle in the affairs of a cat, they will piss on your computer |

I regularly bathe cats. (rescue volunteer) gardening gloves stop the teeth breaking skin but bites still hurt. Worst is 10-16ish week old ferals, there's fuck all to get hold of. Mite try this trick next time! |

"I had a cat as a child I put it in the washing machine "
Oh don't! My cat got a spin in the tumble dryer several years ago! She was 19 years old at the time and I had long given up on checking there was a cat in the drum! Thankfully it did not see her off, but it was an experience neither of us wished to repeat. I still check the washing machine and tumble dryer, even now (for the sake of my current cat) |

yes mine does 1400 rpm and has to finish its cycle before you can open the door so it would have to be all power off and engineer out to washer not sure how he would open the door probabily have to pay for any damage (the customer that is) save cat from suffocateing, with £80 pound call out charge. |
