I had been feeding her for 11+ years. She'd run back away after eating. December she just walked in the house. And stayed. We'll see.

I'm sure she will be back for her next meal X it will just be when she feels like it. Good luck @OP, hope she shows up soon

In my experience, it takes more than a bath to make a cat say "fuck you" and run (mines spoiled shitless just seen some shit)

My cat decided to go die alone under the neighbor's bushes. Our desert landscaping wasn't up to his standards.

She's going out to hunt down and kill the 5 other cats that left her for dead.

It was definitely the bath.

I'm partial to your thought. Then again, it was the prettiest day of the year so far.

I mean, I'm just joking. More likely the cat was just sheltering inside while it was cold.

She's gone to get you a nice crunchy squirrel head as a gift.

She's gone outside again today. Think she's just now getting used to be a regular in/out being. We're gonna be ok. Tnx, y'all.

Probably away to get the outdoor smell on her.

She'll be back, she might want to get some smell back on her to feel like shes still home.

I totally misread this. I thought you were saying your happy housecat ran away and hadn't been seen since December!

Our indoor outdoor cat would disown me for at least a week if I bathed her

Did you get her fixed? She may be in heat, wait a few days she should be back, put food out for her.

4 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Her name's from when she showed up with kittens. We got her fixed way back then, 11+ yrs ago.

Easier than giving some cats baths: soak handtowel in hot water. Hot for you will be warm for her (cat body temp 101°). While down. >>

Basically mimicking the way a mama cat would clean babies.

I use a bucket of warmer water. Rag to start the bath. Then cup to soak her. Shampoo. Rinse. Fleas washed off.

In case you didn’t see the update, she did indeed come back.

With greater numbers. (Please spay or neuter your pets)

Update: she came back with beaucoup dirt in her fur. I guess 'housecat clean' isn't her style.

You’ve fed her for over a decade, she may wonder, but she isn’t running away.

Some cats prefer dust baths to regular ones and they basically keep them just as clean.

You got rid of her smell.

Outdoor cats often develop roll-in-dirt-to-fight-parasites habits.

I've never seen that and I am on my eighth outdoor cat. I guess I just de-flea/mite/worm them regularly.

They use sand/dirt to "brush" their fur, probably what she went to do. We

Minutes ago a friend was telling me about his indoor void cat who he took outside into the yard and it found a dust puddle to roll in.

My indoor floofs have a deck they get to go on and my void especially loves to find as much pollen as possible to roll in

My void floof loves dust baths.
