Tips for bathing cats

Under normal circumstances, cats only need to take a bath once every half a month to a month, and the frequency of bathing should not be too high. Cats need to use cat-specific shower gel when taking a bath, and be sure to blow dry their hair after washing. Moreover, cats are generally very afraid of water, so bathing a cat requires preparation and certain skills. First of all, you can use the bathing method, which is to first fill the basin with the right temperature for the cat to bathe. The depth must be enough for the cat to step on it, otherwise they will not feel safe. After placing the water, start pouring a small amount of bath liquid and stir evenly, then slowly put the cat in, and pay attention to its condition during the process. If the reaction is violent and it starts to struggle, don’t put it in directly. Remove the cat with water first. Wet the area other than the head, and keep stroking its head to soothe it. After it is completely wet, put it in the basin and rub it slowly. After cleaning, wrap it with a towel, dry the surface moisture, and then blow dry it with a hair dryer.

The other is the micro shower method, which does not mean showering directly, but twisting off the shower head and using a certain water pressure to bathe the cat. The water flow in the shower pipe should not be too fast, and the temperature should be adjusted just right in advance. If the cat starts to struggle, you can follow the above steps to collect water with your hands and slowly wet the cat except for its head. The subsequent operations are the same as the above method. After washing, the owner can reward it with snacks to appease its emotions and tell it that bathing is actually nothing to be afraid of, and it can also be rewarded with snacks after washing. As time goes by, it will gradually no longer resist bathing so much.
