Hello for the last two days I've been wanting to give my kitten a bath because we want to get him used to baths early but as soon as I even turn the water on even just a little he freaks out!!! Any suggestions?

Can you get the tub/sink filled before getting the kitten near enough to hear the water running? If he still freaks in the water, you want to try wiping him down with a warm washcloth instead. His fur won't get as wet and it may help introduce him to the idea of being bathed.

Okay I'll try that tomorrow. I've been using baby wipes to wipe him down since we've had him! I'm just afraid he will attack me!
