Chris, I feel for you... Bathing a cat is not my idea of fun. Have to go along with you on the drink body armor! I don't care what the experts say, it's an ordeal for both guardian and fur-kid. Unless you have a Maine Coon who LOVES water! Like my Cornelius. He's just s big, and at

i'm a coward when it comes to certain things--and bathing fractious cats is definitely one of those things. therefore, my best answer to this question is, whatever the really experienced cat groomer wants to use! we have a self-serve dog/cat wash facility an hour or so away: fully equipped spaces

I don't know about taking her out someplace to bathe. I might consider if I absolutely fail! Big Boy is fine. I've sort of renamed him Romeo as he is the mushiest, most loving cat you can imagine and follows around my oldest female like a puppy until she's had enough and gives him a swat!

Marissa, Besides the Diarsanyl, I would give him some probiotics, which are good bacteria for his gut. The Baytril probably wiped them all out. The same companies that sell Diarsanyl online usually have probiotics made for animals, like Benebac, but you can also just give him plain yogurt
