Any ideas on cleaning a cat which has coat smelling of poo. The cat is elderly and belongs to a neighbour who has now got a dog and appears to neglect the cat now. She's frightened of water so any suggestions please.

If it’s that much of a big deal then try wash it in the sink, but when it bolts and gets water all over the place then well.. i guess you will just have to mop it up

Ladybirder - I wasn`t saying that my scenario was abuse. I was saying that Spath's suggestion of locking the door wasn`t abuse but anyway ..It's unusual for a cat to smell of "poo". Most cats are very fastidious about grooming until they are at end of life which makes me wonder if the cat has old age kidney problems and their saliva (after grooming) is what is making the coat smell.
