Have you ever tried to bathe a cat? I do not recommend it while wearing a short sleeved shirt. OUCH

This photo speaks volumes, Jennifer!! It is beautifully composed and very well presented in black and white!! His angry eyes tell all that cats do not like baths and you do it at your own risk!!

My cat is 18 years old and has never had a bath. #4034162

Dan E. March 08, 2007

WOW what a capture! #4034290

Amy JACKSON March 08, 2007

What a wonderful capture!! I have had my share of scratches from bathing cats. They get very strong all of the sudden. #4034312

Rachel McKinnie March 08, 2007

LOL! Great capture. I'm amazed he(?) didn't jump out before you caught it! But I must add, I don't recommend doing it in long sleeves either-my husband had his shredded doing this. Maybe some full body armor would work best ;) #4034453

Jeff Robinson level-deluxe March 08, 2007

Outstanding composition and use of B&W! Jeff #4034481

Ronald F. Fischer March 08, 2007

Fantastic capture, and awesome use of B&W! I hope you were out of the way when this cat came over the edge of the tub (LOL)!! #4034607

Sam Britt March 08, 2007

Terrific image, Jennifer. Yes, I've tried bathing one of my white cats - after he stepped in wet dark green acrylic paint. Not fun at all!!! My cats get their baths at the vet now every couple of months. #4034712

A funny, funny followup to the puppy. Great. And I do know about dealing with both kinds. It's amazing that you managed to get this kind of sharpness (to say nothing about cooperation) from the feline member of the household. #4054407
