As someone who has lived with cats for most of his life, that's basically a picture of a very brave person standing in a giant blender

It's all fun and games until the cat gets fed up and this turns into an "I'm not locked in here with you, you're locked in here with me" scenario. Especially with bare legs.

Yeah, I'd be wearing jeans and my canvas jacket.

Learn for all! Wait until its summer and super hot. Cats, like us, dont like being super hot. Then casually bring the cat into the bathroom with the door remaining open (so it can leave it it wants). Now start petting the cat. Cats like pets. After 5 pets, wet a rag with cool freshing temp water. Pet the cat gently with the wet rag once in a while once petting. The distraction of the pets, plus the cooling effect of the water create a positive response. Ive done this with two cats and both ended up loving the shower so much theyd jump in with you if you didnt shut the door. Classical conditioning is op.

I’ve found it’s the sound of water that freaks them out. Poor baby is just nervous. Next time fill a bathtub partially with warmish water, don’t let the cat near while it’s running. Once it’s off bring in dirty kitty and let them stand in the water, then gently pour the water over them with a cup or something. My cats all love this, only had to do it once to my void when she got covered in shit as a kitten. But my tuxedo needs them once every few months because he gets crazy stinky and isn’t the best groomer.

What the hell kind of comments are in this thread? Trolls?

No, this is pretty much how humans are.
