How to Use Flea Shampoo on a Cat Correctly: An Error Will Make the Product Not Work
Every owner who has a cat should know how to wash their pet with flea shampoo so that there are no problems in removing parasites.
First of all, it is worth talking about the correct “capture” of the animal: the pet should be held with one hand under the belly and held firmly (but gently) so that it does not break free.
After you wet your cat's fur with water, lather him with flea repellent.
The head and neck area should be left untouched.
Do not rush to rinse out the shampoo: you need to wait a while for the active ingredients in it to take effect.
As a rule, the cat should spend 5-7 minutes in the soapy state. You will find the exact numbers on the label that comes with the shampoo.
All that remains is to thoroughly rinse the shampoo from the coat, comb it and dry it.
It is not recommended to use flea shampoo frequently, as the accumulation of toxic substances can cause allergies, poisoning or damage the protective layer of the coat and the lipid layer of the skin, which will lead to loss of shine of the hair.
If your pet is poisoned by flea shampoo, contact your veterinarian immediately.
