Just keep it the old way....It's not broke so dont fix it.

This is all about MONEY & convenience, not animal welfare. Anybody in their right mind that actually cares about their animals wouldn't even consider this contraption. Washing machines are for clothes, not living breathing beings. Why subject your critters to trauma such as this?  High pressure jets? Anti-flea spray? Deodorant? Just how DO they explain these items not getting in the animal's eyes, mouth (or worse, lungs) or ear canals? This is total lunacy!!! Just send the money you'd be spending on this hellish invention to your local rescue group. It would be bucks better spent; you'd be assisting with saving an animal from death and YOUR pet wouldn't be traumatized or dead. If you care about your dog/cat you won't give this craziness a second thought.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Andi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 8th 2010 1:30PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pet Washing Machine Coming to a Pet Store Near You: Video]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/09/pet-washing-machine-coming-to-a-pet-store-near-you-video/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/09/pet-washing-machine-coming-to-a-pet-store-near-you-video/</guid><description><![CDATA[This wouldn't be any more traumatizing to my cat than he already gets in normal bath at home. He flips and freaks no matter how gentle and careful I am! <br>I don't understand why people think it's a bad thing. I used to wash pets at a vet when I was younger, and people's animals are just as scared there with a stranger washing them as they are in that machine, believe me. <br>Just because the owners are not back there seeing it doesn't mean the animals aren't having panic attacks. All the new smells, other pets around them, loud noises, a stranger touching them.....your pets DO NOT enjoy the suds-up at your local parlor at all. Really.<br>This machine would be a godsend. Fushi has needed a bath for a very long time now but I don't want to got through the trauma, so this machine would be wonderful!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Amanda]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 9th 2007 1:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pet Washing Machine Coming to a Pet Store Near You: Video]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/09/pet-washing-machine-coming-to-a-pet-store-near-you-video/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/09/pet-washing-machine-coming-to-a-pet-store-near-you-video/</guid><description><![CDATA[Amanda, they are high powered jets of water being sprayed at your pet. Ok just imagine this. Someone puts you in a giant machine while it sprays water all over you really hard and really fast (which would probably hurt) while tumbling you around. You struggle to get out but no, the door is locked until the nightmare is over.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Cheese]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 21st 2008 7:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pet Washing Machine Coming to a Pet Store Near You: Video]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/09/pet-washing-machine-coming-to-a-pet-store-near-you-video/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/09/pet-washing-machine-coming-to-a-pet-store-near-you-video/</guid><description><![CDATA[I would never put my dog thru that machine...wash them by hand and bond.....that machine is awful....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Karen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 9th 2007 6:29PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pet Washing Machine Coming to a Pet Store Near You: Video]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/09/pet-washing-machine-coming-to-a-pet-store-near-you-video/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/09/pet-washing-machine-coming-to-a-pet-store-near-you-video/</guid><description><![CDATA[  That thing is terrible thats animal abuse!

He does not like that any more than he does any other way to get wet. He cries equally as badly.<br>However, the bag avoids the scratches gotten and the struggle of the cat trying to find some way out of that wet hell they are being put through.<br>I find it exceedingly important to dry them with towels quite a bit while they are still inside the bag. Simply by pressing the towel against them while holding them does some comforting. We also use the mesh bag on the rare occasion when we need to pop a pill or squeeze liquid down his throat.<br><br>good luck calming the traumatized felines who are treated to this bit of hell!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[eileen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 10th 2007 12:33AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pet Washing Machine Coming to a Pet Store Near You: Video]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/09/pet-washing-machine-coming-to-a-pet-store-near-you-video/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/09/pet-washing-machine-coming-to-a-pet-store-near-you-video/</guid><description><![CDATA[Was this machine tested on all breeds? I have pugs and their nostrils are on top of their snouts. You have to be careful when giving them a bath, as the water can choke them. I would not recommend such a device as a one size fits all.

Take care of your own pets and if not spend the $50 for a pro to do it. I know they get traumatized most the time anyway but this is horrible.  My toy poodle does well at home with a bath and has had one every week or so since she was a baby. And she isn't traumatized or scared. I also always give her treats afterward. And I trim her and do her nails and brush her daily.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jb43]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 10th 2007 1:39AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pet Washing Machine Coming to a Pet Store Near You: Video]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/09/pet-washing-machine-coming-to-a-pet-store-near-you-video/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/09/pet-washing-machine-coming-to-a-pet-store-near-you-video/</guid><description><![CDATA[WTF???
