Mimi as drowned rat
Mimi, being unsteady on her fet can often fall over during her toilet duties. As a result she needs the odd shower. This week's entry for the Friday Ark and Carnival of the Cats
Poor thing. That reminds me of when we have to bathe our blind kitty. She doesn't bathe very well because she can't see so once a month I give her a bath.
I've never met or heard of a cat who would tolerate a hair dryer. Those times when one simply must bathe them call for a nice warm fire or a lot of towels (and a great deal of patience) afterward.
Aww! she looks a bit startled!
ReplyDeleteAwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!! The poor thing!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt certainly looks like it was an odd shower.
ReplyDeleteI assume the hair dryer was out of the question.
Hi Jams, thats the lovely mimi...what have you done to her? She remains cute nontheless. I guess she deserved a shower afterall.
ReplyDeleteps: Its the former flying monkeys. Its been some years now. I'll add a link to your blog and also follow you.
Yep she definitely looks like a rat! ;)
ReplyDeleteOh for shame. There's nothing more pitiful than a soggy moggy.

She was not a happy puss Cherie. Luckily all it took was a big lump of cheeese and I was forgiven!
ReplyDeleteShe is a little sweetie Kay. She is seriously disabled but she is so loving
