Now it's Snorgs turn! She had a huge lump
Of sticky poo attached to her backside this morning. Got some off. Can I use washing up liquid to get the rest off. I think she's going to need a bath!

I wouldn't. I'd use human shampoo before using dish soap

I wouldn’t

I think the thing is will Snorg let you wash him? If so I would go for mild shampoo diluted down.

When one of mine rolled in something yucky I just used a damp flannel.....I didn't want to leave any residue in case they licked at it.... But mine wasn't compliant with the process at all!!

I'd buy some cat shampoo or just use water. Good luck

I managed to get it all off with the clippers. She's now sporting a terrible hair cut!

Apologies....I misgendered Snorg. I'm glad she is sorted.

She likes having a bath at the groomers. When I tried out of necessity once before, she turned into a slippery eel. It was not a success.

Poor thing she doesn’t look happy 😬

Oh me oh my!! She is so accommodating. 😍 my cats would be on my shoulder trying to jump off.....no way would they be wet.

I’d she a Maine Coon? They’re meant to like water but our boy at least, didn’t get that memo.
