evening spent de-clagging the cats bums. so which jobs around the home do you hate doing?

[mamabea]

I have 2 hairy cats. Both get claggy bottoms and need a bi-annual cleaning . I bloody hate them.

bi ohh

I sympathise - I have to shower one of ours once a week. We trim the fur as well to avoid ahem clingers.

I hate...

pulling hair from plugholes

cleaning skidoos from the toilet bowl

OMG, how do you shower them? Do they not go crazy?

Am totally pmsl at this thread title!!!!

urghhh

I can't think of anything more claggy

Scraping hen poo from the treads of gym shoes.

Well on the subject of cats, I hate that my 14 year old has forgotten how to accurately hit his litter tray so we are constantly mopping up cat pee.

I'm bigger than the cat and meaner too. But in answer to your question. Chuck them in the bath, hold them down round the neck and wet them. Then quickly grab the shampoo while they leg it to the other end, throw it over the cat, recatch cat and shampoo it, then rinse.

It helps if you have underfloor heating (dries up the puddles) and large bath sheets (that you have no intention of using for anything else) to wrap the cat up in.

A particularly vicious cat can be shoved into a pillowcase with the head sticking out for washing purposes

thanks for that

so it seems that chores that involve hair and poo are not popular.

Well cleaning false teeth makes me gip too....

Y'know I opened this thread half expecting it to be WMMC

what's WMMC?

Oh wmmc always starts this type of minging skin crawley thread

not tonight!

boak
i have to de=clag my dog occasionally tis gross

Sadly (?) I no longer have the pleasure of this task since my long haired, blind, fat, house cat passed away a few month ago.

Well that and the cleaning up of patches of his vom every day....AND those furballs were big enough to be cats themselves!

Gee thanks Washersaurus - just because I have a veritable wildlife parks worth of icky creatures living in my house (and that's just the kids and DH!)

Actually the worst job for me is anything involving looking under the sink in the bathroom for chemicals. DH keeps his old false teeth in a pot there and I always forget and then shit myself because I suddenly see these white teeth staring out of the darkness. Or worse still I put my hand in the box and feel them. Urrgggh

Better that they are kept there and not lost in your muff when he pays a visit to your lady garden m'dear

Puss

Open garden season is over.

Ooh yes....had forgotten!

De-clagging a rabbit's arse isn't fun either. It is that much of a problem that the vet stocks a product to stop flies settling there.
Last summer one rabbit had a Brazilian.

ok i was going to come on this thread and moan about the state of the veggie drawer in my fridge, but the playboy bunnie/vampire teeth/dangle berries has put my feeble domestic woes to shame....

My cat mad friend had one feline who was simply unbearable when she was on heat (expensive breed waiting to breed) so every so often she would have to "shag" her own cat with a cotton bud. Now that's a fun evening in ...
