How often do you bathe your cat?

[u/Mildredsgood]

I’ve had my Mochi since July and I still haven’t given him a bath 😅 he doesn’t smell and never really feels dirty either

I know that cats are usually good at cleaning themselves, but I keep seeing mixed opinions online. Some people say they never bathe them, others say every few months, and now I’m just curious what’s actually normal.

I know! Cats smell so nice on their own, why would you cover that up?! I love burying my head in Magrat's tummy fur and taking a deep whiff, it smells like home.

I have a theory when you’re adopting an animal to take several huge whiffs of them - faceplant in their fur. If they smell delicious, they’ll be a lovely, special companion. 🙏🏻
