By the way, my greatest triumph in pet grooming was giving a skunked tomcat a bath in tomato juice, and then a rinse in warm shower water. This was a cat who stumbled in, eyes wide and pretty much drunken from the shock of catching the spray. Other than that I don't know how I managed to bathe him without having several more or less vital parts of my anatomy removed.
We proved the old wives' tale. Tomato juice really does knock skunk scent right down. Well, the way an open can of tomato juice will absorb all the off odors in your refrigerator (and then taste like it, and get dumped down the drain, bleccch) I was pretty sure it was going to work.
