Animals clean / "bathe" themselves in nature. Showering is natural.
also: rain
They do so with spit (at least cats do). Not with petrochemicals and aluminum.
the aluminium part i get, but what contains petrochemicals?? Do you mean vaseline?
i mean fragances lacquers etc
derivatives of petroleum. gross shit.
You’re aware that there are many, many, aluminum, petroleum, and sulfate free products out there, right? You can also just exfoliate in the shower with only a wash cloth and water. Just because there are shitty products on the market it doesn’t mean you don’t have options for healthy, basic, and yes, natural for humans (which are, arguably, not cats.), hygiene.
Sure! Thank god for diversity of choice.
