Even in Space, I take a shower... Although.. I am not exactly sure how this thing would work up there. wouldn't water droplets just go everywhere?

I can imagine when you got out and shook your fur to dry off. !
Cute pic, Holly! If you're around, could you message me on Skype? Thanks.
It's destiny! You're going to be the first fox in space!!
That's why there's a door! The water would going where ever it was sprayed, just like it does here. The difference is that it wouldn't all run down toward the drain. It would tend to clump where ever it stopped on you, and any splashed droplets would be floating every where, in every direction, some fast and some slow.
They droplets would tend to clump together into larger droplets whenever they collided with each other. Just a gentle circulation of air and a little time would be enough to cause them to come together, and gentle vacuum would cause them to move toward the drain. You'd surely have to shake to free water from your fur, so the circulation could take care of it, before opening the door. Once all the loose droplets are gone, the remaining dampness evaporates as it does here.

I agree with you, FoxWolfie- Surface tension of the bathing water in low gravity situation might make it difficult to dry your fur - water will want to 'stick ' to you like a thin gum. Maybe an additive to bathing water might make the water to have a lower surface tension. (I think such an additive is called a detergent!) Probably a high-volume low pressure jet (like from a vacuum cleaner's out-blast or a hair dryer like implement) would be needed to blow-dry the water away from your fur.
I've many times encouraged my wonder-dog Keeshaba to shake-shake her bath water off... I think watching a canine/feline animal shake-shake water off of its pelt in low grav would be a graceful but hilarious thing! Water droplets everywhere, the animal in a crazy spin,WHOA!
A human, having a hairless integument, could use their hand like a wiper-blade to scrape the water into a big droplet that would be whisked away... That idea comes from a Larry Niven short story. But now I am nerding out way beyond your picture. But Still: Holly, How is it that you can manage to 'suit in these places??? I Love It! You amaze me!

Glad you got the chance to visit my old hometown! I went to the teenager version of Space Camp in the 90s. I hope you get back safely from the Moon!
