I had a couple of those long stick-strips up to catch flies (ones you usually see in and around barns), and one of my cats succeeded in knocking it down, and wrapping it around his body.
Once I managed to catch him, stop him freaking out, and get it off him, I got him in the shower to get him wet, dried him off with a towel, and brushed him off a bit.
If that wasn't enough trama for the poor cat, he's still sticky. He's washing himself incessiantly, but I know the strips are non-toxic (that's why I got them as opposed to getting a spray). Is there anything else I can do to de-stickify the cat, or should I just let him clean himself up? These things are -sticky-, and I think I'd have better luck cutting his hair than trying to wash it off.
Anyone have any experience with this?
