Smelled a skunk last night. Literally. Figured one got in a tussle with another critter and did some spraying. As that distinctively bizarre stink intensified, my cat comes in my studio room.
I think you know where I'm going with this.
His chin was muddy and he was generally dirty as if had had been tussling...with another critter. The stench filled up my small room with the fury of a rotten carton of old milk. He wreaked. My eyes were watering as the cat stands on his chair (yes, HIS chair) next to mine wondering what the prob' was. I grabbed a towel and immediately bathed him in Dawn (cuz Dawn is a miracle dish liquid that I heard worked great when trying to wash a stench off of pets). So now every room in the house is wreaking although his body soon proves to be stink free. Except for his head and chest area. I now realize that must have been exactly where he was sprayed. I washed his head during the bath but I guess skunk spray is pretty concentrated. He's a walking stink bomb and he appears to be pretty unconcerned about that fact. I mean, why isn't he in the back yard taking hourly dirt baths??
So yeh, the Les Man needs help. Any recommendations? Does tomato sauce really work? Wash him in pure lemon? What?? Who's faced such a dillemma?
Thanks and *Pyew!*
