Bathing steps:

1. Use nail clippers to trim the cat’s nails before taking a bath, usually into oval shapes to avoid being scratched by sensitive cats during the bath.

2. Use a comb to comb the cat's hair, otherwise it will be easier to tangle when it is wet.

3. If the cat is resistant to bathing or is sensitive to water, it is best to wear a collar first to prevent it from biting when it gets excited.

4. Before taking a bath, the kitten can also be allowed to engage in appropriate activities to allow the cat to eliminate feces and urine.

5. Prepare bath water. The amount of water should not submerge the kitten. You can test the water temperature with your hands and make sure it is gentler.

After washing, rinse thoroughly with another basin of water or spray.net. During the entire bathing process, do not let the cat drown to prevent water from pouring into the cat's ears and avoid soap bubbles from irritating the cat's eyes.

7. Immediately after washing, use the prepared dry bath towel to absorb the water on the kitten’s body, and then use a hair dryer to blow dry and comb it.
