Okies, So Church had his bath after being assaulted by the garbage bag, but he still stinks... I am wondering, having been a long time dog owner, I know dogs have anal scent glands that can get congested... Do cats have the same scent glands? So if this is why he stinks, I should probably try to releive the glands like I`ve done to so many dogs before :p not that it is a pleasant task... And if it is the case, I need to get it seen by a vet of course... I am just trying to rule out all the factors here. Thanks.

Cats do have anal sacs too just like dogs. It's usually a very distinct smell. On eof my girls will release hers if you touch her on the back of her legs. Needless to say I never touch her on the back onf her legs!! lol

 Cheesy

P.S. What happened with the garbage can??

I figured so much. I tried giving him a bath and "do the same thing as you do to dogs" when you groom them. He seems much better now fortunately. See, I never had a cat before and I don`t know everything I should :p. But that is one bit of info that will be mighty usefull to keep my cat nice and healthy.
