hi well most most cats are not fond of water and so baths are definitely not there favourite things. however just there are always exceptions to the rule and your cat sounds like one of them.

Also some breeds are more dog like than others, Siamese are like this, so it may be that your kittens has some of these genes somewhere along the line.

walking on a leash is also not something that a normal cat will take too, some do with training. It sounds like your kitten is definitely something different,

best wishes Kate
