Im thinking the best way to stop her is to, instead of putting my arm up to stop her getting/falling in, just let it happen? Im pretty sure once she did it she wouldnt try it again. But I feel a bit horrible as I know she will hate it, and I doubt bubblebath is very good for her skin :/
I know this is a very odd question, and maybe the best way would be to just shut the door and let her get on with it...or even restrict her to the kitchen when Im in the bath or something, but I dont like locking her in a room. Feels nasty to me

Vicky: is it that you don't want her in the bathroom or on the side of the bath or it fear that something will happen if she falls in? If the latter.... let her find her own way.... she will either love it or loathe it.... and if she loathes it....be prepared for a few serious scratches if she uses your body as leverage to get out of the bath quickly!!! You have been warned!!
Some cats (very few, but some) don't mind baths. She's curious. Long as you don't leave her unattended in case she struggles to get back out of the water, she'll be fine
