Just a tip on bathing your cat.
Giving cat a bath can be very easy or very difficult (tremendously easy on my miumiu), depending on the cat temperament (darn babybonn!).
Remember that cats, unlike dogs, have five weapons: four sets of claws and teeth!
- STEP 1: Adopt a calm, positive attitude before and during the bath'it will help ease your cat's anxiety.
- STEP 2: Consider trimming your cat's claws beforehand to reduce your risk of getting scratched
- STEP 3: Bring your cat into the bathroom. Close the door and keep it closed until you are finished.
- STEP 4: Fill the bathtub/sink with enough lukewarm water to cover your cat's paws.
- STEP 5: Gently set your cat in the tub/sink.
- STEP 6: Give your cat free rein in the bathtub using minimal restraint, but gently hold on to the back of her neck if she tries to escape. (scuff him..good boyy..good boy)
- STEP 7: You can try to apply a drop of baby or olive oil to your cat's eyes to prevent irritation from the shampoo.
- STEP 8: Scoop water in a plastic cup, and pour it over the cat until her fur is wet, making sure to avoid her eyes.
- STEP 9: Apply a regular shampoo made for cats, or a flea shampoo if needed, and rub it into the cat's fur. Use caution around the eyes.
- STEP 10: Hold your cat under the faucet or scoop clean water over her to rinse.
- STEP 11: Quickly pat or rub your cat dry with a towel ( i use a large towel for miumiu, he likes to be cuddled with the towel :) )
- STEP 12: Comb through your cat's fur to spend quality time together as she dries, then give her a special treat such as catnip or kibble for a job well done.
- Be sure to remove all soap when rinsing, since cats will groom themselves and ingest anything left on their fur.
