While most cats are fascinated by running water and enjoy watching it, the majority of our feline friends do not like getting wet. It should be very easy to tell by your cat’s body language how they feel about water. Many wild big cats (tigers, lions, leopards, etc.) swim or bathe in rivers or lakes to cool themselves in hot climates. Since domestic cats aren’t exposed to the elements like their wild cousins, many house cats don’t experience the same joy from getting wet.
Scientists aren’t exactly sure why many cats hate water so much, but they do have a few ideas…
When a cat’s fur gets drenched, it’s like carrying around a heavy, wet, blanket. This is uncomfortable and makes it harder for them to move with the agility they are used to.
Smell is a cat’s strongest sense. The scent of chemicals or soap in the water may be undetectable to you, but your cat can definitely smell it and will be put off by it.
While cats are able to be in control when they are sitting on the kitchen counter dipping their paw in the sink, a bath is a completely different story. That lack of control can stress your kitty out enough to make them want to have nothing to do with a bath.
Often, past experiences are in play with how your cat reacts to situations in the present. If they had a scary or negative experience with water when they were younger, it’s not something they will want to revisit now.
We know bathtime is right up there with nail trimming for the fastest way to send your cat into a panic. Luckily, cats can usually clean themselves with their tongue. If they get into a messy situation that requires a bath, there are a few things you can do to help make the experience less stressful.
A bath isn’t the only way to help keep your cat’s coat looking and feeling great, this mackerel shine meal enhancer can also do the trick! Even if you can’t get Fluffy to calm down about their encounters with H2O, you can help relieve stressin other areas of their lives.
Believe it or not, some cats actually enjoy the water and love getting wet! These rebel breeds include:
If you’re looking for a cat who will love the water as much as a Labrador Retriever, you’ll be set with one of these breeds. If you have a cat who does not enjoy water activities, these treats can help calm them down a bit so that bath time is a little less stressful.
