Jennifer Garner is a darling. The 13 Going on 30 star is just one of those people everyone would love to have as a friend. She’s charming, talented, intelligent, and she loves cats!
While she’s an A-list celebrity, Garner doesn’t mind digging her hands in and getting dirty when it comes to her kitties. For instance, when her big boy Moose “befouled” himself, the dedicated cat mom pulled on her gloves, put her stinky feline in the sink, and bathed him herself. Complete with silly singing and a cat trying to make a break for it, the video of the bath has enchanted us all, with a thread on Twitter expressing everything we’re feeling about Garner and Moose!
Befouled with Poopy Pants
As Garner removes Moose’s collar, she tells viewers, “Something has gone awry.”
Covering Moose’s ears to spare his dignity, Garner reports, “Moose pooped his pants.”
Poor Moose has what Garner called an “obesity problem,” and for these large cats, things can get undignified in a hurry as they sometimes can’t groom away any, ahem, kitty poos as it can be a little harder to reach some spots. Couple in the fact Moose has long fur, and it’s no surprise this boy needed a little help getting clean. It happens to the best of kitties, and we, as their parents, will happily dive gloved hands in and help when our purr children need it.
Moose seemed to enjoy his bath at first, even singing a chorus of the Muffin Man. But once his mom starts getting a little purrsonal, Moose tries to bail, leaving Garner to scramble in a dance familiar to cat people. From that first escape attempt on, the rest of the bath devolves into hilarious chaos, and Garner survives with only one wound to the throat. A definite win when bathing cats.
But, uh oh…
At the very end of the video, Garner realizes, “We didn’t get to do conditioner.”
Oh well, another day, perhaps.

That about sums it up!
This is cat ownership in a video. She is delightful and so is Moose.

Hard agree! Watching Garner’s cat troubles makes her even more endearing!
She’s truly one of the loveliest people to exist.

Celebrities are just like us, right down to the towel scoot.
[P] That duck walk with the towel makes me feel so seen

Celebrity cats have real-world cat problems too!
I’d never thought I would relate so much to Jennifer Garner this much. Not least because we both have cats with stinky bumholes. https://t.co/YkIXOD2xUK

When you’re in deep with cats, there’s no going back, only making it through without needing stitches!
Any cat owner will recognise the terror Jennifer Garner visibly feels halfway through trying to wash poo off an angry cat, realising that she has no choice but to finish the job because his bum is covered in soap https://t.co/5ivftOY2Uo

What’s a tough mission featuring Jennifer Garner without a reference to Alias…
This was actually her audition to play Sidney Bristow. Anyone who survives bathing a cat like that deserves the role. pic.twitter.com/quHYcOb6m7
