ABSTRACT:
An apparatus to aid in the bathing of cats, dogs, or similar small pets that is intended for countertop use over an existing a sink is herein disclosed, comprising a box-like structure with a hinged lid. The apparatus is designed such that the cat or dog can be secured within the enclosure with its head protruding from a foam rubber lined opening. A hose and valve connected thereto the apparatus are hooked up to a sink faucet providing a mixture of water and liquid soap which fills and pressurizes the hollow walls of the apparatus causing spraying of the pet from a plurality of water delivery apertures formed in the vertical walls. When completed, the pet is rinsed with clean water. Waste water from the washing process is strained and drained into the sink below. Finally, a dryer adapter coupling allows a user to dry the pet using a hair dryer while still inside the apparatus.
