Funny how they don't mind getting all wet running around in the rain, or through puddles, or from melting snow.... but give them a bath and the look at you like you broke their little hearts, lol.

Why would you ever bathe a cat? As my favorite comedian said: "Self-cleaning is one of their big selling points."
Despite the fact cats self groom, they in fact should have the occasional bath. People who have pedigreed cats bath them regularly, (that doesn't mean constantly). There are benefits to the cats to be bathed.

Well I'm glad all these comments are saying what I'm thinking. CATS DON'T NEED CLEANING.
I tried to bath my cat. Once. I don't know who was more traumatised, me or the cat.
"I didn't feel I was a huge enough a*****e to bathe a cat (99.9% of them hate it and it's really unnecessary) so I took photos and posted them online to get likes. I'm a soul-less piece of s**t."
it's cruel to bathe a cat, they clean themselves. I wish people would get that
My cat sneaks into the shower and actually bites and scratches my feet if he isn't getting enough water on him.
It was funny but not so funny for the poor cats who don`t need a bath ! Cats do not need bath!
Did anyone else notice after a cat got a bath thier pupils got bigger
Do all these little fellows really need a bath? I can understand it for the Persian cats, because it's the best way to get rid of shed hair, but the others? Cats are self-cleaning after all. As for the rabbits, guinea pigs, etc, giving them a bath is totally unnecessary and even cruel. Only hygiene-obsessed people with anthropomorphic tendancies will want to do that.
Believe there is only one type of cat that likes water & same of them poor animals need feeding my dogs love water my cats don't.
I love how all the dogs look either happy or perplexed, but all the cats--ALL THE CATS--look like they're plotting significant and merciless revenge.
Cats bathe themselves with their tongues. Don't understand cat baths??? Seems wrong. Now dogs got to get washed.
Sometimes an old cat can get in trouble, just as old people. With the younger cats I agree with you.

Actually, some cats need to be bathed occasionally, because they get dirty and can get sick and cough up hair balls. So next time, think before you criticize.
