Kitties!
Johnson here.
I've had several ONE poopy pantaloons incident lately.
Since I'm so pudgy MUSCULAR and floofy I have some difficulty...erm...Hygiene-ating Certain Areas.
It was determined I needed a BATH.
(not by me!)
I first got a mani/pedi...
...and Daddy shaved my bum!
Then Mommy cruelly plunged me into the suds.
I have been bathed before.
Absence Did Not make my heart grow fonder.
Kitties, I made the water rather brown.
I'll never admit it, but when it's over, it feels good to be clean!
And the best part is, I wasn't alone...come back tomorrow to see who else got bathed!
Happy Saturday!

NO! That Did.Not.Happen! The occasional Klingon bits are best dealt with by using baby wipes or in extreme cases, paper towels and warm water! Plunging the kitteh into WATER is soooooo Not.Cool.
ReplyDeleteI am very disappointed not to see any BLOOD coming from Mommeh OR Daddeh in these pictures. Please tell me some flowed, even if the evidence got left on the cutting room floor.
I don't even want to THINK about who else was victimized by this outrage.
You sure were a good kitty while getting a bath. Now you are squeaky clean. Hugs and nose kisses
ReplyDeleteSometimes the kitty must get wet. This NEVER happens to the goat though.
ReplyDeleteheh
We'z speachless! Yoo let dem PUT YOO IN WATER! Hmmf, let us know if yoo want us to report dem...
ReplyDeleteMerciful heavens! At least you were not alone. You looks real nice after the bath though. Nosetaps.
ReplyDeleteOMC!!!! I have NEVER been bathed, and even though I am less than 6 lbs., I don't think it is actually POSSIBLE to bathe me. In fact, if I a human is holding me within 3 or 4 feet of any sink anywhere, I turn into a thrashing, bolting ball of panic! I can't believe you handled this so calmly.
ReplyDeleteGemini hates it when that happens. You look like you are handling it well though.
ReplyDeleteBaths ... not fun. Oh well, glad to hear you weren't alone in your misery!
ReplyDeleteHave you tried doing the Butt-Scootch? Fer a short-hair, I have a furry butt. Just sit on some carpet with yer back paws raised an claw yerself forward with yer front paws! It werks pretty well. Feels good, too!
ReplyDeleteIf fact, one of my nicknames is "Butt-Scootch Girl".
Iza
We think the sink must be the stew pot Scouty talks about!
ReplyDeleteDude... *shaking head* it just ain't right!
ReplyDeleteOh, poor Johnny! Baths are no fun at all. I have to admit, it's a little funny to see a giant floofy kitty all sopping wet.
ReplyDeleteAlso, now that you mention it, I think Melly could use a bath too.
Buddy 'Bubba' Bear said: Bath for Kitty? NOT nice to think about, but think about it. It make you clean, make you un-stinky, make you pay more attention to cleaning yourself longer, and make the beans feel sorry for you so you get more treats and more attention. The shaving was a good thing. Woolybooger kitties has too much hair in the wrong place and it needs trimming. Since you eat too much (it seems) and are too lazy to work it off, you needs some help. Mom and Dad gived it to you. Be Happy! You still gots us to love you and fuss at you when you bad boy. But you are not bad are you. Just clean.
ReplyDeleteThas good ....
Johnson, don't think of it as just a bath. Think of it as a full treatment spa day! You'll probably even like all the pampering you get and the ladies will certainly be purring your way :)
ReplyDeletePoor darling image having to get wet like that. Bet you feel better now. :)
ReplyDeleteHow embarrassing for the big fella! But the ladies will lurve you now!
ReplyDeleteOh the felinity! The! Felinity!
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you need help reporting your hoomans to the kitty police for cruelty to a poor, defenseless, poopy cat!!!
The outrage!!
Oh no!!!! You're giving my Mama and Dad ideas!!! I heard them talking just now.... purrr....meow!
ReplyDeleteHee hee hee. Did you scream at Mummy? When our Mummy gave us a bath (which is a once a year thing), I SCREAMED and SCREAMED at her!
ReplyDeleteLove, Ling
You are very brave!
ReplyDeleteDear Johnny
ReplyDeleteMum says my pantaloons are too fluffy and I will need a bath soon too. I am not impressed.

Oh nooosss! I must confess that has happened to me! This is the price we pay for having such beautiful.. umm handsome, in your case, furs!
ReplyDeleteYou do look nice and clean ^..^
~ Miss Emily
Oh!My!Cod!
ReplyDeleteI tried to block the computer screen from M so she wouldn't get any ideas. You are so calm about it too. I'd fight for my life instead!
ReplyDeleteThat after-bath feeling really is rather wonderful, isn't it Johnny?!
ReplyDeleteWoofs,
Tommy
Beautiful Mr Johnny!! The indignity of it all!! Awwwwwwwwwww!! Me and Charlie feel your pain!! But we are glad it's over now and you smell of fresh and very manly roses! Yay!! take care
ReplyDeletex
MOL, the comments are wonderful. There would not be anything left of our Mom if she tried to do that to us. No way, no bath, period. Johnson, you are such a good kitty to let them do that to you. Bet you smell better too.Wonder who the next poor victum is??
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain, only I got hauled off to the "groomer" because mom and dad didn't have the guts to do this to me themselves....I was growing rather attached to the giant mats on my hindquarters too. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteI kind of like smelling all fresh and clean.
Manly purrs,
Figaro
I may be a little humiliating, but as you pointed out, it feels so much better in the END! LOL!
ReplyDeleteMy grandkitty Missy will be happy to know she is not the only one with this problem.
oh my God, brings back memories of having to give weekly baths to my ringwormy kitten in 1997.
ReplyDeleteJohnson, you were remarkably stoic. And no blood-letting!
Oh boy. Summer bath, huh? Dontcha feel better all clean? (Try to forget the having to get wet part, ok?)
ReplyDeleteHumans spend good money on a spa day - it's a wonder you weren't charged for the "delights" of a dunk in the sink. We can't believe we didn't see any human blood and bandages - did they tie your paws together too?
ReplyDeleteLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
OMC! Can't believe your mom and dad got away wifout any blood spillage! You are a good cat! I bet you feel all nice and clean now, but I still wouldn't let mama do that to me!
ReplyDeleteWe've never had a bath like that, thank Bast, but we suspect it is just horrible, handsome Johnny...We are just glad your terrible ordeal is over, sweet boy and we hope your weekend improves greatly, precious friend...Big smoochies...Calle, Halle, Sukki
ReplyDeleteYou and I have similar physiques and pantaloons and I too get poopy butt that needs to be cleaned.
ReplyDeleteUsually mom will get paper towels sopping wet and squeeze it out over the "area" then a brisk wiping and comb out. But on occasion I too have been partially immersed. Just my hinder, mind you, never the full deal like you got! WOW! You look so patient in the pictures! -Shaggy
Wow!
ReplyDeleteYous was a calm kitty! When Mommy or Daddy tries to bathe me horrible things happen!
Kisses

ReplyDeleteGood thing it wasn't Baby that got a bath because your parents might have thrown the baby out with the bath water.
ReplyDeleteYou really handled that well, but it didn't look at all fun to me!
ReplyDeleteBaths! Horrible! Jack had 2 butt bathings yesterday, for the hygiene reasons too. He's too old, crippled up, and not giving a darn to bathe himself anymore. He may get a full bath in the next day or two.
ReplyDeleteYou were very brave Johnson. We both like water and often sit on our Beans when they are in the bath, but being forcibly bathed sounds like a nightmare.
ReplyDeleteEric: I get poopy pantaloons sometimes and do the same as Iza except that mum says I am tobogganing. The Beans get a cloth and wash my back end which has to be better than washing it myself.
OHmigod Johnson, poor friend!
ReplyDeleteYou are very brave to face this, I'm proud of you! :)
Anyway I imagine you didn't like it , I could not be so easygoing like you look in these pictures! MOL
Love from
Luna
Oh my did youre dad shave youre fluffy behind ??!!
ReplyDeleteMe too have a bath yesterday , not cause i was especially dirty. It was because I´m going to a Catshow tomorrow and then you have to be spotless and fluffy :)
I like to take a bath now and then , but I don´t like the hairdryer very much !!!
Oh TJ, this is just terrible! I had some, er, poopie stuff on my long tail floof the other day, and do you know what my mom did? Do you? She took scissors and cut my furs! I thought that was bad, but after seeing what you had to endure, I'm going to just be quiet now.
ReplyDeleteYour friend, Zoe
MOL Johnny....I think it is high time you stop eating your siblings and turn to juicy less hair flesh...like Mom and Dad's hands when they baptize you in suds.
ReplyDeleteHugs Madi
Hi Johnny!! You've got cleaned!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you were doing very well while being bathed...and now you feel good, it's nice. You did enjoy the bath, didn't you? :-) Have a wonderful weekend!!
OMC.......Youse look so handsome now that you awe bathed, Chloe will not get away fwom da computew so I can type.
ReplyDeleteBTW, it's me Winston...
Anywho, Mom lauged so hawd she told da stowy when she bathed Cecil. She said he was such a good boy (suwe da "good guy") and he hawdley even moved while in da soapy watews.
Mom got him out aftew da bath...his haiws wewe CUWLY!!!! She thought she wouined Cecil..she called Dad and told him she shwunk his fuws!
Sometimes a bath is necessary -- although I only attempt it when there is NO other alternative! LOL. My two long haired cats sometimes have dingleberries on their butts.
ReplyDeleteMr. Johnny ! You look defenceless !!!
ReplyDeleteYou is a big guy and you are my hero. I guess your pawrents must do a big negotiation with you here !
What is it ? A bag of Temptations after bath for sure ! It's no way you will cooperate nicely !
xoxo
PS : Mr. Johnny, What is your weight ? I'm 6.9 kg. now. Dad said I should do Diet, but I don't think I really want to do it . What do you say ?
Johnny...you are one brave cat. There is NO WAY we would EVER let ourselves be bathed...poopy butt or not.
ReplyDeleteYikes! A bath.
ReplyDeleteeeeeek! We're shuddering at the mere thought of a b-a-t-h.... Yuk! But you do look sort of clean and shiny.
ReplyDeleteFortunately only show cats needs regular baths. You did well not to harm your hoomans. We like to take our showers in the rain and (paws crossed)have never needed a bath bath.
ReplyDeleteDude, you look like you handled it pretty well!
ReplyDeleteNubbin wiggles,
Oskar

ReplyDeleteOOOOOHHHHHH...... We feelz your pain!! Thoze of us wit long hair end up wit "Buttcuttz" ,, we All have dem now,,, ^..^ no bafs yet.......
