Um, I can only speak as a ferret parent but I can assure you that giving my pet a bath is NOT a pleasurable activity.
night_shift As a large dog owner who hates bathes, I don't think this is entirely accurate lol 5y
cathysaid But what if your pet is a goldfish? OH THE HUMANITY! 5y
Amandajoy I had a lab who loved the water. Baths weren‘t pleasurable because she liked to jump & splash. There was always a lot of cleanup. This list seems dubious. 5y

CindyMyLifeIsLit Yeah, bathing dogs is just work! I think cooking is, as well, although I know some people do enjoy it. With my 35th anniversary approaching, I‘m kind of burned out on it!! 😁 5y
Susanita The one time I tried to give Kili a bath, he meowed and cried so much I thought the neighbors would call animal services on me. 5y
abookishbutterfly @CindyMyLifeIsLit @CindyMyLifeIsLit For me, cooking wouldn‘t be pleasurable anymore although I used to love it. I can see how some would check it off. But bathing my ferrets results in scratches on my arms and I end up just as soaked as my freshly bathed pets. Definitely not pleasurable! Haha 5y
abookishbutterfly @Susanita 😥 5y
abookishbutterfly @Amandajoy I definitely didn‘t check off very many as pleasurable activities! I guess someone out in the world must enjoy some of this stuff. 🤷♀️😂 5y
MicheleinPhilly I would like this person to come over, give Pickles a bath, and then let me know just how “pleasurable” an experience it was. 😒 5y
