--Japanese restaurants that cater to folks who aren't limber enough to sit cross-legged thru a meal offer 'gaijin' tatami rooms that have holes under the tables, where customers can put their feet.
--So why not apply this trick to bathtubs? All that's required is a slot in the floor in front of the
bathtub that's big enough to get one's legs into, so that when one faces the inevitable task of **washing the dog** (or cat, wee one, etc) the back-breaking part of the experience is left out?
-An upscale refinement: add a cheapie hydraulic lift (less than $100 at Harbor Freight!) so floor depth could be adjustable.

who washes their dog/cat cross legged? They already
make tubs you can sit in. |
|
|
Gaijin. I love that word. |
|
|
Also the new all the rage items are regular items
designed for people who weigh half a ton. |
|
|
But tatami is a woven grass mat - - how does this interface with a bath? |
|
|
You call yours [wee one] ? That's not exactly positive advertising. |

I picture this as wearing the bathtub
like a pair of pants, more or less. For
washing, the cat, I would want the
bathtub to come all the way up to my
waist. For washing the wee one, I
suppose it would have to ride a little
lower. |

I suppose that on those rare occasions
one wants to wash ones feet and legs,
you could put it on upside-down. |
