Our Siamese is recovering from an infected anal gland (yuck) and the vet recommends soaking his bottom in an Epsom Salt bath for 5 minutes for the next few nights. He’s being held lightly though it appears he’s in a choke-hold. After all, if he were choking he would be unable to vocally express his feelings about the bath. Poor kitty has been through a lot in the past year.

omg it sounds like a human!!! and it looks like he has a grip with his paws wtf
Yeah, if he gets started when we’re on the phone, whoever we’re talking to says “Do you have a baby over there?”. And he’s pretty good with hanging on to stuff with those front paws, though it does look sorta odd in the video. Thanks for watching. 🙂
Whoa…
I don’t have my tickets to the gun show, but I watched the video anyway! 8^P
Oh my cat… mine has anal problems and after having polyps removed b/c he scratched so much and being on antibiotics for 2 weeks b/c he was so infected, he has to go back again. I hope I don’t have to give him a soak – he hates water! Your boy handled it well, despite his protests. (Love the Siamese talk – I grew up with one!)
He’s cute! Almost looks like a Chihuahua! He’s being a good boy too! Poor little guy!~
poor kitty.its worth it though. your bum will feel better in no time.
Your kitty has such a sweet meow! He sounds like a two year old child! LOL! I hope that he gets better! Give him a ton of hugs and kisses! I can tell that he is a great cat!!!
What a great personality! He does not seem to fight you too much in the tub, which has got to be a pretty good thing..if you think about it! LOL!
Hope he gets well!!
Since we shot this video we’ve had to take him back to the vet twice for the same problem, though it wasn’t as bad as the first time. At least now we know more of what to look for. Hope your kitty is feeling better now.
Thanks! There is something Chihuahua-like about the wedge-head Siamese, you’re right. Though you should see some of the ones with the much larger ears. This is the first purebred animal we’ve ever owned and he’s been a good cat, though much more delicate health-wise.
Oh, its YOU! Lol!
Being a former showcat he does very well with certain things like having his claws trimmed and he certainly tolerates baths better than any cat we’ve ever owned. We don’t have to suit up with battle armor like when we’d bathe cats we used to have. Lol!
Thanks for the nice comment and for watching our video. 🙂
