    Basil has faced many trials and tribulations in his quest to reclaim Chair Mountain. However, after defeating O'at'meal of the Shamp'oo tribe, he stands one step closer to completing his quest.

    Much like my British Blue when he was alive, when they're washed, they're actually quite skinny. Goes to show how plush/thick their fur is.

    Thank You for taking the time to reveal this information! I really appreciated it!

    When I had a cat I would only do this about twice a year. I use less tub water a bucket a cup. I use the cup to pour water on the cat for wetting and rinsing. I use less tub water so I can soap their paws and belly.

    The furminator is for deshedding. If you want to get matts out, you can try using a plastic comb (so it has some flex, and doesn't rip the fur out), or a quiet hair trimmer. Both options go over well with my cats.

    I've only given my big chunks one bath, did a similar technique with the pre-filled bath, since Peter is a very large thing I was worried about managing her from outside the tub, so I just held her and sat in the bath. She didn't love it, but she didn't fight at all and was just a dejected big wet fuzz. I thought I was going to get hurt for it but no, just sadgirl cries.
    She actually wasn't angry with me at all after and spent the rest of the day proudly re-cleaning herself on the bed beside my desk. An exceptionally good fluff

    You might have to start a Basil & Lemon Instagram. We bathed our old cat around every 2-3 months. Used the on/off shower head, wrapped her in a towel and blow dried afterward. Then she would clean herself for hours afterward and cough up big hairballs for a couple days. She hated it until it didn't happen. We moved in a short period and she didn't get a bath for almost 6 months. One day she just jumped in the tub and waited. Of course she complained the whole time then as well.
