Common misunderstandings about bathing cats:

1. Wash once a week: Although cats love to be clean, frequent bathing will only cause the cat’s hair to lose its luster, and even cause the cat’s hair to lose its luster. It will aggravate the phenomenon of hair loss, so don’t wash it too frequently. Generally, once every two weeks in summer and once every 1-2 months in winter is enough.

2. The water temperature should be so hot that it feels hot when you put your hand into it: Many people say that the body temperature of cats is higher than that of humans, so when bathing a cat, the water temperature should be a little hot when you put your hand into it. This is wrong. If you feel hot, the cat will probably go crazy too. Just do it appropriately.

3. Wash your face every time: I believe that every owner will flush water on the cat’s face when bathing the cat. This is wrong. Cats are very disgusted with this, so don’t do it every time. I wash my cat’s face every time.

4. All cats need to take a bath: This is not the case. Short-haired cats actually do not need to take a bath. I have seen that many short-haired cats may only take a bath once every six months, so raising a short-haired cat will save a lot of trouble. .

Precautions for bathing a cat:

1. Cut the cat’s nails before bathing it to prevent it from being scratched.

2. After the cat enters the bathroom, you can feed the cat some snacks to soothe it and divert its attention.

3. Try to give the cat a tub bath. Showering may scare the cat or the water temperature may be difficult to control.

4. Don’t take too long to bathe. Try to finish it within ten minutes. Dry the cat immediately after washing.
