I only gave our cat Barley (also an orange tabby) a bath once, and it wasn’t by choice. I was just finishing sealing my driveway when my wife said goodbye to me on her way out for an appointment. As she drove off, I looked up to see Barley, only about a year old, standing before me at the end of a long trail of tarry paw prints. Knowing that he liked to follow me around like a puppy, I had deliberately kept him inside while I worked; my wife had thwarted my plans by letting him out. Scooping him up, I went inside, donned a pair of swim trunks and grabbed a can of thinner, and the two of us sat in the tub for over an hour where I alternated between thinner and soap & water until I had removed all the gunk that was packed in his paws.

My hat’s off to you and Ellen. I’m afraid I take the coward’s way out and just use pet wipes on my cats every few weeks–and they barely hold still for that!
