How do you wash a cat?

Answer 1

You don't, unless the cat has gotten very dirty somehow, such as getting into oil or grease or something else that would harm the cat if it licks it off. Cats generally keep themselves quite clean. If you MUST wash a cat, run the lukewarm water before bringing the cat in the room. Turn it off and use a cup to scoop and pour it over the cat when the cat is in the tub or sink. Never use hot or cold water to wash a cat. Use cat shampoo or baby shampoo, never adult human shampoo, as that could irritate the cat's skin.

you dont unless its gotten dirty. get cat into tub with lukewarm water and put 2 pegs on each side of the cats scruff and wash . you do it because it thinks the mother is holding it so it will stay calm.

Answer 2

Yes you should wash it once a month and our vet said you should brush its teeth every night if its on wet cat food or have bad teeth. This to keep she/he 's health up!

Answer 3

Truthfully you really don't need to give cats bathes they bathe themselves. But if you really want to know you just fill the bathtub or kiddie pool for outside up and then put your cat in the water and just pour water over, then suds it up and rinse. Then it'd be a good idea to wrap the cat up ina towel and dry it off. But like I said it is not nessisary to give cats baths, they probably wouldn't like it.

Answer 4

Usually its not, because it is important to wash of fleas or ticks off and it helps from it catching diseases. You should not wash your cat each week or day, because it would lose needed body oils. You should wash your cat once a month. On the other hand if your cat definitly needs to wash up from maybe getting into harmful plants or any other thing, because it might get sick. All in all, it is a good idea to wash your cat every once in a while.
