You should never anesthetize a cat to groom it. Find a local groomer and it costs about $26.00 for wash and flea dip, trim nails and brush teeth. They are very gentle and you do not have to get scratched. You can also buy wipes or spray at pet smart that will make your pet smell better with out bathing it. Baby powder believe it or not makes many smells almost disappear for several days on a cat or dog. Just sprinkle a bit on and pet them. You will be happy with the results temporarily.
The rough hair-like material on a cat's tongue are called papillae. The papillae help cats groom themselves, eat and drink.
When a cat lays down, it typically curls up in a comfortable position, tucks its paws under its body, and may groom itself before settling in for a nap or sleep.
Your cat may be experiencing mild skin irritation, allergies, parasites, or stress that is causing him to twitch and constantly groom himself. It's best to consult with a veterinarian to determine the root cause and provide appropriate treatment to alleviate your cat's discomfort.
It is not recommended to blow dry your cat. Cats are sensitive to heat and noise, and blow drying can cause stress and potentially burn their skin. If your cat gets wet, gently towel dry them and let them groom themselves to dry off naturally.
It is perfectly okay to bathe your cats. The only problem is, cats hate water, the cat will not like the bath, and whatever you do, don't put water on your cat's head/face. Also do not submerge your cat in water.

Cats groom each other as a sign of affection and bonding. Your cat may not groom you like other cats do because it may not see you as a fellow cat or may have different ways of showing affection towards you.
