Shedding and Bath Time

Hey everyone. My mac had a shed today that left him with a tail tip and a little bit on one of his sides. So I ran a tepid bath, threw a towel in there, and put him in.. I got the tail and the side skin off, but he seemed to really dislike the water. He just curled up on the part of the towel that was sticking out of the water, and when I put him in there the first time he made a bolt for a second, before sitting with his snout out and gradually moving to the towel...

In his enclosure he never soaks in his water bowl... Does he just not like water, as an individual? Or is there a better explanation?
