Will I have to go around naked all the time?

Frequently Asked Questions
Well, nudity is largely the point of naturism. However, a club is a place where you may take all your clothes off, not one where you must. Women may wish to wear a bikini bottom during periods; if outside, when the weather cools off, everyone will cover up. At our swims however, 99% of the time, people are nude.

Nick Johnson, Certified Massage Therapist (CMT)
No, you need only disrobe to your own personal level of comfort. In some situations I may ask a client to leave his or her underclothes on to avoid convoluted draping procedures (especially if it is advantageous to use the side-lying position). In all other cases, when working with nude clients, I always work with a drape, exposing only the body parts on which I'm working, and always protecting clients' modesty.

Will anyone see me naked?

Welcome to Mayyim Hayyim
That depends. When individuals immerse for conversion, Niddah, or some other "mitzvah," it is traditional for a mikveh guide to act as witness to make certain that every strand of hair is under water. In some cases (e.g. healing) you may choose to immerse in private, with a guide waiting at the door for safety and support.

You should undress to whatever level you feel comfortable. Your modesty will never be compromised. During the massage, you will be properly draped at all times to keep you warm and comfortable. Only the area being massaged will be uncovered, and those parts of your body generally considered private are left covered at all times and not worked on. You never have to do anything you are not fully comfortable with.

How are the rats?

Cathe B: The Second Frequently Asked Questions, Mostly
The rats are just dandy. We lose one or two every few months. That's hard, but most of the time they are healthy and happy. The show Pet Star, on Animal Planet, recently featured the critters in a "gross out the judges" moment. That was a lot of fun, and it's really a good chance that we'll go ahead and do the show again. [Update- YouTube carries some videos under CatheJ!]

Rats are social animals and need each other to truly be happy. Rats can feel emotions like loneliness and boredom, and no rat owner is really able to have their pet with them 24 hours a day to provide the kind of social interaction they need. Two rats are really not much more trouble than one, and you will be rewarded with some amazing experiences as you watch a pair (or more) of rats that care for each other interact.

My rats have mites. What should I do?

Dose them once a week for three weeks. Clean the cages very well, including the surrounding area (every week). Wash all cage accessories very well in hot soapy water.
