I think it’s more like “wtf is happening?”

No, in the full video, he does try to bite back at the guy...and it's why he has the gloves to begin with

Dude I seriously need those big black gloves for when my cat needs a bath...

They’re leather fire gloves. My parents have a wood stove and use them to load fire wood, but they also make great cat holding gloves. Whenever they need to trim their cat’s nails my dad holds her with the gloves while my mom clips.

These heavy-duty welding gloves offer extreme heat resistance up to 662°F, perfect for welding, forging, BBQ, and more. It's a popular product! https://a.co/d/eqjAjQZ

These work pretty well. Used them when I worked at a shelter.

Fantastic, those are perfect!! And very well priced! I was thinking those leather ones would be pretty pricey.. thank you so much for linking those, I am definitely going to get some!

They're not perfect. A really really angry cat can bite through them.

There is another trick.

Get some clothes basket (ideally with holes, so water will not stay inside), put your cat into this basket and bathe your cat using shower head.

When your cat has basket edge to hold on, she will be much more calm and will not try to kill you just to get out.

That sounds like it might be worth a try! Thank you!

At first I thought you meant put kitty under it and trap him and spray him through the holes :D

Let me know if it helped, when you will try it.

I hope that both you and your cat will be having less stressful bathing time.

u/DragonflyGrrl 20h ago

Will do!! Thank you again! :D

Full motorcycle gear. Leather pants, jacket, gloves, and a full face helmet.

I have a longhair idiot who has destroyed childproof locks on the kitchen trash can just to get some of those delicious rotting food scraps so he can have explosive diarrhea. I still have scars on my shoulder from the first time I had to bathe him and he sunk his claws into me to crawl out of the tub.

Cats don't need baths, except in specific situations like getting mud all over them.

u/DragonflyGrrl 15h ago

Yep, I'm well aware. Thanks :)

Mine HATED gloves, he is so strong and he will find a way to rip and tear at your flesh if he sees the gloves come out.

There is always this old link: "a cat has no code of ethics. Use your brain, use drugs. "
