I used to spray my cat with water whenever he would jump somewhere I didn't want him to be or he was bothering me when he was a kitten. Turns out that he got used to it and he started to jump into the shower while I was taking one and he'd play in the water after I'd get out. He also loves to be outside when it rains. WTF is wrong with him?

Even indoor cats get stinky after a few weeks.
And no, they don't dissolve in water. :chuckles:

not really, unless they're rolling in something to make themselves stinky. both of my cats haven't had baths in months. they're both scentless. they self-cleanse you know.
however, you're right in that it's no reason not to ever give them a bath. i remember a certain incident with one of my cats (while still a kitten), and a lot of bacon grease. he was unlucky enough to get two baths for his mischievousness.

That is one of the worst ways to discipline an animal because they don't know what they did wrong. Either the spray bottle or making the tub inaccessable are the only ways really...

Yeah I did feel bad.. Dogs are smart enough to remember where and when they shit, I thought cats might be too.

just leave the tube filled with about 5 inches of water or so whenever you guys aren't using it. It wont be enough for him to drown but if he doesn't like getting wet he will learn not to jump in.
