If you start bathing them as kittens they aren't too bad about it. Like Mummiboo said they do get this wicked pout and then a grating growl but it keeps the fleas off.

Same go with clipping the nails. Our cats are mostly outdoor cats and do alot of climbing and such. I find clipping just the end tip off keeps their claws from getting too long.

Also hinders their ability to grab birds in flight and catch up with the "baby" squirrel. Never fear, when the dogs get to playing too rough with them, they can still climb the trees like a rocket!
