KATIE: Waffles, what have you done? You look like you stuck your paw in the electrical outlet. You know you're not supposed to–
WAFFLES: I didn't, Boss. Honest.
KATIE: Well I know you weren't rubbing up against a balloon.
WAFFLES: We have balloons???
KATIE: You must have been taking a bath on the rug again.
WAFFLES: Is that wrong?
KATIE: Not if you don't mind static electricity.
KATIE: So why don't you groom yourself like a normal cat?
WAFFLES: Normal?
KATIE: You know, sitting up and taking care of business, yoga-style.
WAFFLES: Yoga?
KATIE: I guess Waffles subscribes to The Lazy Cat's Guide to Grooming.

It's true. Waffles has his own personal style of bathing unlike any cat we've ever seen. He lays outstretched on the rug, on his back, and flip flops side to side like a fish, getting a few licks in with each flip and each flop. We call it the Flip-N-Roll.
Apparently, it's the only way he can seem to reach his armpits.
WAFFLES: I have armpits???
Vid-e-o! Vid-e-o! We want vid-e-o!

ReplyDeleteWaffles, we do not like static! It bites our ears when mom touches us
ReplyDeleteAgree wif da video request!

ReplyDeleteBoys! You just can't ever trust them to groom themselves properly. At least he doesn't ask you to help with the hard to reach spots, Katie ;)

If you let him outdoors, Waffles would probably "clean" himself in pile of dirt, like an elephant. Glad he has a rug!
ReplyDeleteour foster kitten Cassis does that too - and ends up with a bad case of bed head :)
ReplyDeleteMOL ! Video please ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteWaffles dude, come on over to my house and I'll teach you how to take a bath like a mancat should take a bath - yoga style. We'll have a training session, eat some chicken, and you can go back home again.
ReplyDeleteHmm...It sounds like fun. Maybe I should try bathing like that? Ichiro
ReplyDeleteVideo for sure!!...MOL...xoxo...Calle, Halle, Sukki, Mommy Cat
ReplyDeleteOh Katie! Where did these kids come from!

Armpits.... that was how I could tell Juan and Axel apart. Both were black kittens. Juan had one white spot. Axel had a second ... in his armpit, which the anatomy experts call the axillary region.
ReplyDeleteHey, I like a good Flip-N-Roll occasionally too! ~Wally
ReplyDeleteVideo, video, video! Everyone knows gingers are odd creatures. ;)
ReplyDeleteFlip and Roll is good, Waffles. Don't let anyone tell you different.
ReplyDeleteOh, Waffles...you are one of a kind!
ReplyDeleteLOL! That is too funny. Cats do the darndest things!
ReplyDeleteYou are too funny Waffles.
ReplyDeleteYou need more hum-didity in your house. If the Glo-people pet you, do you go SNAP, CRACKLE, POP?
ReplyDeleteLOL! That is too funny. Cats do the darndest things!
ReplyDeleteWaffles, I think we are related!! Mom laughs at me 'cuz I stretch out flat on my back on the floor and then I start taking a bath. Steinbeck doesn't do it that way.....only me!! Guess it's not something for just ginger cats. :)
ReplyDeletePurrs......Hemingway
