I usually fill the tub before they are in the bathroom so the noise doesn't scare them. I then have a rubber mat in the tub to keep them from slipping. I use a cup to pour the water over them. Then I got a tip from a grooming video...do the head last. Once their heads are wet, they will shake. Before that, they usually don't. Good luck!
Oh, and I realized that Hot Rod ddin't like the feel of one rubber mat I had, it had suction cups to keep it down and I guess he didn't like the feel of it on his pads as he kept walking off of it. I finally got one that you would put in the kitchen sink and he was fine. I just picked those up from the Dollar Tree. Good luck. |
