Cat bathing can be a kind of fur care, which can not only remove dirt, lice and anti-hair balls, but also help blood circulation and promote skin metabolism by combing and brushing. However, it is worth noting that cats that have not been vaccinated are best not to take a bath, and the shampoo for bathing cats is best for cats. Another point is not to bathe the cat often.
First, you can't take a bath before vaccination.
1. Kittens without vaccination have low resistance, and it is easy to catch a cold and have diarrhea in the bath, which will cause more serious problems. It is recommended to wash after two shots of vaccine for two weeks! ! !
You can take a bath after vaccination. If short-haired cats can take a bath once a few months, long-haired cats can take a bath once a month. Usually, you should comb Mimi's hair more to keep her clean.
3. Because cats secrete sebum to protect their hair, if they wash it too frequently, the skin protection ability will decrease, leading to skin cancer. It is best to use pet shampoo to avoid the side effects of people using shampoo.
Second, it is not good to bathe cats and dogs with adult shampoo.
1. If cats and dogs are bathed with adult shampoo for many times, such cats and dogs, especially white cats and dogs, will easily fall off and turn pink.
2. Because of its high alkalinity, adult shampoo can wash off the skin of cats and dogs very cleanly. As we all know, sebaceous glands on the skin secrete oil to protect the skin and prevent chapping.
3. If the oil is washed away and the skin resistance is reduced, it is easy to be infected with bacteria, fungi or sarcoidosis. Bathe dogs and cats, preferably with dog and cat shower gel. If you can't buy it, you can use baby shower gel or neutral soap and soap.
Third, don't bathe the cat often.
1. Cats have some precious protective oil and some trace elements on their hair. Cats clean themselves by sunbathing and licking their fur. Generally speaking, cats with smooth fur are healthier, and vice versa.
2. Cats secrete oil, and this protective film can prevent dust from getting on them. That's why cats that often bathe are more likely to get dirty.
With the protective film, cats can shake off the dust when they exercise.
