Few cats behave calmly during washing. Usually, animals try to escape, scratch and make shrill screams.
But the washing procedure can also take place in a peaceful environment. To ensure that everything goes just like that, use the following tips.
1. First, let us remind you that you should only wash your pet with a special cat shampoo. Human shampoos can irritate the skin of cats due to the difference in acidity levels.
2. Fill the bathtub with warm water – enough to cover the cat halfway, and place a rubber mat on the bottom so that your pet feels securely supported.
3. Some people prefer to wash their pet in the sink because of its compact size and shape, which calms cats - think about whether this option is more suitable for you too.
4. In any case, do not use a strong water pressure. Instead of turning on the shower, you can pour water on the cat with your hands or from a ladle.
5. Prepare all the necessary supplies in advance so as not to be distracted while washing your cat.
6. Carefully pour water over Murka and apply shampoo, then massage his fur. Rinse off the foam just as carefully. Try to keep water, foam and shampoo away from the cat's eyes and ears.
7. All that remains is to dry the cat with a towel and take it to a warm place, protected from drafts.
