Bath time

[GaryT]

I forgot to grab my phone to take pics until after I had finished bathing Theodore but, I got pics of him wet and being dried. These pics are after towel drying. It took me a LONG time to get him dry enuff to let him run around. he hates the blow dryer blowing on his tummy so i never get his tummy or legs comepletely dry. I did get his legs and tummy close to dry this time. Next time I will take camera to the sink with me. he is really good about it and he is now playing. he feels better after his bath. He was washing my arm as I blow dried him.

Have you tried using paper towels after you towel dry him? I towel dry first, then use the paper towels until they no longer pick up dampness in the coat, then I blow dry. He is a beauty!!

He was getting stinky and I had put it off long enuff so I gave him the bath before I could think about it too much. BIG job! Next time I will grab camera and get pics of him in the sink. As soon as he feels the water, he settles right down. I know many don't think cats need baths but, this breed definitely does! No way can he groom himself!

Shot with my old Canon Powershot SD1000. Not as good as my old Nikon but, works in a pinch.

I just love Theo. He's beautiful I can understand why you need to bath him all that fur. No wonder he feels great after his fur is nice and fluffy.

Aww he looks like a small cat when his fur is wet but doubles in size once he’s all dry.
Truly a BIG JOB.

I do too. He's stunning. Those blue eyes.

I got him the catnip banana and a robot ball that he absolutely LOVES!
I will get pics when it is daylight.

Do you brush him everyday?

Do you brush him everyday?

he gets combed with a greyhound comb every day in the morning and, with this big coat, also during the day at least once. He has bonded really nicely with all the attention he gets.

Fluff Fluff!

He’s looking at you like he is ready for some hugs and kisses.

Oh, yes, he gets plenty of that! LOL
He was watching me because I was on the phone. So, I snapped a photo.
Too cute to resist.
