Our 14 mo used to love bathtime, he'd happily play and splash about for ages, on Saturday he had a bit of a meltdown as I put him In the bath and this pattern has reoccurred ever night since, he won't sit down he screams, shouts and gets very upset. I'm sure it's just a phase but any advice on how to get through it would be much appreciated!

Had exactly the same thing at same age, went from not beIng able to get him out tO not being able to get him in overnight!he was suddenly terrified and had a major tantrum if we even started to enter the bathroom at night! I found I had to ease him back into the idea by getting in with him and reassuring him - took a week or so and then back to normal. Quite common apparantly - just a developmental stage! Good luck!
We had that, suddenly the bath terrified her, it'll pass. Try giving bath time s miss for a few days then coax him in with some toys he usually doesn't have in the bath, bucket & spade or something from the kitchen perhaps. Or get in with him yourself but don't force him if he doesn't want to.

    • Pickup your dogs shit off the street, it's so simple. Don't own a dog if you cannot do this basic service. Pathetic. Cleaning my shoes of dog shit for the 2nd time this month. What's going on? 
    • Hi SpringTime, I completely understand the concern for protecting birds, but using bells on cats is a bit more complicated. While they may reduce hunting success, they're not always effective & can cause stress for some cats, who are highly sensitive to sound. A better solution is to ensure cats are kept indoors during peak bird activity & providing plenty of enrichment at home to satisfy their hunting instincts. There's a terrible misconception that cats do not require as much mental & physical enrichment as dogs do. But they do, if not more so.
    • But we can train them to kill the foreign invaders, green sqwaky things, and the rats with feathers 
    • Hi Nigello, Many spayed/neutered & microchipped cats actually don't wear collars, as they often go missing & can pose risks.  Microchipping is far more reliable for reuniting lost cats with their guardians. Some of our clients even keep sacks of collars on standby because their cats frequently return without them - a comical but telling example of how impractical collars can be. A major contributor to unspayed/unneutered cats & kittens is purchasing from breeders, where these measures are often overlooked. Adopting from shelters, on the other hand, ensures all precautionary steps - like spaying/neutering, microchipping, as well as vaccinations - are already in place.
