That kitty is either very pissed off or very comfortable. XD

Seems pissed to me.
Cute!!

That's so confusing! Ditto to Mika - I just can't tell which! Maybe he's capable of being both at once.
I like the Flashdance legwarmer floof in the water.

Doesn't look pissed to me, looks very comfy lol.
I'm sure if it was pissed it would've bolted out of that sink asap, or been meowing or something.
Just looks like a kitty enjoying a nice soak heh

I don't think I've ever before seen a cat so...defeated.

Lol I agree, defeated is the word for this.

Michelle

Is he falling asleep? Drugged? He's cute, thats for sure, I know if I tried that with any of mine I'd have some new kitty markings

That cat has been drugged for the bath.

Katrina
 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 03:20 AM

That's what I was thinking. That cat's on druuuuuugs....

Defeated is the perfect word. It almost breaks my heart! poor baby!

Poor little cat. There is no good reason for washing a cat, it's just cruel.

ulla
 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 03:56 AM

Oh :( Poor little resigned kitty. Quick, scoop him up and dry him off. Fluff his fur and give him a handful of treats so he knows you still love him.... At least that is what I would do.

Shimmr
 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 04:08 AM

He looks pretty comfortable to me! When was the last time you saw a cat do anything he didn't want to do? Cruel? That kitten's in heaven!
And I lurve the little ear hair curlique.

It's the huge, drooping whisker-stache that gets me.

Theresa
 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 04:36 AM

Hm... kitty in a hot tub.

He's probably trying to look all nonchalant waiting for the bikini babe kitties to join him.

He's looking very zen.

Some cats love water they do.

Lone

omg.. if that cat could talk.. I think he would say "Why you do this to me?"

I had a cat that had to have a baff on occasion...she would sit there nearly in a daze & I would have to hold her up or she would fall over! Vet said it's kind of a self defense things kittehs do...zone out so not to freak out.
One of our current cats, Molly, had to have a baff on her backside. She complained a little, then sat still. I got out of it unscathed-she never brought out the claws at all!
I think it just depends on the cat...
Kitty looked annoyed, but it could have been the "eyebrows" making us think that.

lucy's mommeh
 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 06:13 AM

He looks like he is loving that stream of water down his back. hahah!

Michelle
 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 06:32 AM

That kitty looks utterly miserable!!
Why oh why do people keep washing their cats?? That's akin to cruelty against animals!
Unless the fur is badly coated with glue, paint, something toxic, cats' furs are perfectly keep clean by themselves!! Through their constant grooming they spread oil all over their fur, coating it and insulating it against the cold, wind, water, etc. It has to be slightly, very slightly oily to the touch, probably leaving grimy marks over time on their favourite spots in the house, where they like to rub up against. That's not dirt, though, but only the natural state their fur was meant to be by nature!!!
People, please please please STOP WASHING your poor poor kitties!!!

 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 06:34 AM

OMG, kittehs melt when exposed to even the tiniest amount of water!!! How can you be so croooeeellll???

... Oh wait. I'm thinking of witches. Never mind.

AlbertaGirl
 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 06:38 AM

I dunno... I thought the kitteh looked kind of comfortable. And when do you see a kitty do something it doesn't want to do? My cat, for one, loved water when he was a kitten. He would stick his paws in his water dish and splash it around and stand under dripping faucets, in sinks, in the bathtub, getting water all over himself. To this day he still doesn't mind getting wet out in the rain... whereas the other cat freaks right out lol

poor wet babykins, he needs a towel, a treat and some lovin

 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 06:45 AM

wow. i feel like i live in an alternate universe.

to me, that kitty looked like she was zoning out in pleasure- enjoying the feel of warm water raining down on her. i saw no defeat or terror in her eyes- in fact, to me, she looked almost relaxed enough to be falling asleep.

weird.

sorry, I'm not letting my cat attempt to clean clumps of poop off his butt after having spread it all over the floor. I don't think he wants to do that either. So in the bath he goes, like it or not. I learned my lesson, his 'area' gets well trimmed now.

Picklesmom
 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 07:16 AM

Poor little thing. I wanna nuff now.

Let's not forget that humans don't need to bathe either. Bathing breaks down the skin's natural resistance to pathogens, therefore compromising the immune system. Body odor only seems offensive to the unenlightened because they've been taught to be ashamed of it. Washing and combing the hair is another unnecessary and outdated hygenic practice foisted on us by the corrupt hair care product industry. If you need proof that humans should not bathe, just look at how a human infant cries and fusses when he is cruelly forced to endure a bath. Water should only be used for drinking, bongs, and watering organic gardens. Any other use is wasteful and pure evil. Especially using water to defeat innocent cats! What are you poor, pathetic, clueless idiots thinking?

I think this kitty is exhausted from a lot of rolling around with the catnip, and that's why he/she is sitting there so calmly, exhausted but still under the influence of the nip.

Those dried chunks of excrement clinging to your cat's fur are perfectly natural. To remove them would be a crime against nature itself. Let them drop off on their own, as nature intended. Those wadded clumps of fur aren't "mats", either. They are feline dredlocks. It's the natural state your cat's long coat is supposed to be! Leave them alone! Nature intends them to be snagged on limbs and torn out, or eventually chewed off by the cat itself. And don't get me started on hairballs, which are perfectly natural as well. They're a healthy way for the cat to purge it's system of bad vibes. STOP grooming your animals, people!! It's CRUEL!

I'm so sick of seeing wet cats on CO. Of all the atrocities a cat can endure: neglect, malnutrition, parasites, injury, or illness... bathing is by far the most cruel. And I should know. I was bathed as a child and I never got over the trauma. I'm no longer forced to endure baths. Sure, I leave dark, greasy marks on my favorite spots, but that's not dirt. It's valuable skin oils. If I could scrape those oils up and rub them back onto my skin, I would.

I don't think my point was made. But if you insist, I guess I'll have to stop.

[OK, I suppose I don't *insist*, but... please? - Ed.]

I LOLed when he opened his eyes the first time. He looks extraordinarily comfortuhbuhls.

My cat doesn't mind water. He LOVES it when I take a bath: he'll sit on the edge of the tub and splash water everywhere. Sometimes he'll let his tail drag in the tub... and then drip water all over my floors. :(

I had to bathe my cat once. It was not this calm of an experience. I think he got into something under the sink (lye, or something,) which required a quick remedy (obviously, this was a very long time ago, the reason for which, will become clear below...)

However, after the armageddon event, he proceeded to head to my bed and take the biggest cr*p in it that I've ever seen come out of any animal in my life - in the exact geometric center of a king-sized bed. The precision was remarkable.

I think the kitten looks pissed off to me. But he is also comfortable.

Perhaps one of this Cats ancestors came from Turkey

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkish_Van

He is also probably looking forward to the guilt induced hugs, extra fluffly towels(warmed), nip infused tuna juice

Dewi
 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 08:33 AM

I can't help but think "poor widdle kitty". But he must be lovin' it since a cat won't just sit quietly if he's upset. Either way, a soft warm blankie and a kitty-snack will be required.

Ray
 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 08:43 AM

I think he was loving his baff...if he didn't want to be there he would have got out.

carmen
 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 09:41 AM

Hopefully, the little sweetie is sitting there so still because it's enjoying the water...and not because the suction from the drain is holding it in place.

Rory
 |  Jul 06, 2008 at 09:48 AM

LOL@turbofloof! Revenge is a dish best served...at body temperature?

Also, some people's definition of cruel strains the imagination.

Crustydredlocks, you meant it as a joke, but amazingly there are people out there that don't believe humans need to bathe! My dad is one of them, he is convinced the shampoo and soap companies have brainwashed us into thinking that we need to shower daily. He doesn't understand why people remove their natural oils and replace them with unnatural ones. My mom gets him to take a bath about once a month or if there's a special occasion. He is right in once sense, the less frequently you shower, the longer it takes for the grease to build up again. But believe me, the results are for a rather “ripe” smell.

Hey! I get that look when I'M sitting in a jacuzzi! Eyes slowly closing (NOT narrowed in anger), head nodding... Trust me, it's not terror, humiliation OR defeat.

I happen to know a cat that races into the shower as soon as his mommy turns it on. He just LOVES getting into hot water. If you catch my drift...

Some kitties are just, um, different.

The force seems weak and floppy in this one

I tend to think that if the kitty didn't want a bath, the mommy or daddy filming this would not have a face anymore. Or flesh in their arms.

That said, AWWW the littlest kitty is soooo saaaadddddd awww.

That reminds me of my cat. He loves water! To me, the kitteh looks all comfortabuhls, about to fall asleep because he's lovin' his warm baff.

Seriously, my cat is a mixed breed and looks like a Russian blue, but he and his litter mates did not inherit the water-hating gene. Like mine, others of the litter have been reported to jump into the bath or shower with their owners.

Here's a pic of mine on the patio standing ankle deep in water and loving it!
