In my place bathing a cat is not customary. The elders say that getting a cat wet can cause bad weather. Of course, when I was still a kid, I used to believe it. Nowadays, I just shrugged the idea off then bath my cat.
I have a year old Siamese cat and I bathe him once a week. I wonder, Siamese cats can be bathed as a part of their grooming. But is it also OK to bathe other breeds of cats?

Well, I'm reluctant at other breeds of cats. They might claw their way out of it. Siamese you know are the sweetest.

I have been a cat owner all my life and have been toal that there is NO NEED to bathe a cat. They bathe themselves! My cats have claws, too. I wouldn't even dream of giving them a bath. They are always indoors anyway, but they never smell. Good luck to you!

I am thinking to consider that. I know they can lick themselves clean and sometimes I am lazy to give my cat Logan a bath but it makes me feel guilty lol... But now, that you've mention it, I think, I have my excuse not to do so :D

well i think its not that bad to bathe a cat... just make sure that you will dry it well so it won't get sick... and make sure its not angry, you don't like have its nails leave a mark on your face.
