One of my cats had flees once and I gave him medicine so the flees died but I had to bathe him to get rid of the dead flees. I made him chill with me in the bathtub for 2 hours, just chilling and getting him relaxed. Than I slowly filled up the bath while petting him and he didn’t even mind. When the water was getting higher (his head still above water of course) I washed him and after that was all done I gave him his favorite snack while drying him off. Worked all fine

For a healthy cat there are no benefits to a bath or shower. But when you bring the natural oils out of balance the cat is missing its protective layer and becomes more vulnerable. There are a few exceptions but if you cat does need baths then there is probably a medical issue. But please do whatever you think is best for you cat. So am I 😉

It's actually because they have a special coating on their fur and they don't like it to get wet since they prefer to bathe themselves some cats just love water though but some prefer not to get wet it is important to bathe them sometimes but definitely don't do it often because it's actually not good for them to be bathed often unless they're really really dirty or are unable to clean themselves for example if they're a kitten without a mom to clean them and they can't clean themselves yet, an old cat who can't keep itself clean, or a disabled cat who can't reach every spot due to the disability Another reason they don't like water is because water can mean death for them their instincts tell them to avoid it because if they get wet and cannot dry off they can get sick and die so that's another reason a cat may be afraid of water it can be because of discomfort as well for example a cat with long fur surely won't enjoy having wet heavy fur

My vet always said to bathe them only if they specifically need it, like they get into something that made them dirty that would be dangerous for them to bathe themselves for (like glitter, cleaning fluid, paint, lots of mud etc). Cats are very good at keeping themselves clean and rarely need help with that unless they have been dirtied by something it would be unsafe for them to clean themselves. And it's just not great for their skin and fur to bathe them too often. They need it if they're young kittens and don't have a mom to bathe them, but once they're able to clean themselves it should be only if they get very dirty with something they shouldn't clean themselves. But do brush your cats! Not only do they love it but it will prevent hairballs and help them keep cool when they are shedding a lot.

There's a joke using that: 1. Thoroughly clean the toilet. 2. Add the required amount of shampoo to the toilet water and have both lids up. 3. Find the cat and soothe him while you carry him toward the bathroom. 4. In one smooth movement put the cat in the toilet and close both lids. The cat will self-agitate to make ample suds. (You may need to stand on the lid so that he cannot escape.) Never mind the noises that come from your toilet, the cat is actually enjoying this. CAUTION: Do not get any part of your body too close to the edge, as his paws will be reaching out for anything they can find. 5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a "Power Wash" and Rinse", which I have found to be quite effective. 6. Have someone open the door to the outside and ensure that there are no people between the toilet and the outside door. 7. Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids. 8. The now-clean cat will rocket out of the toilet, and run outside where he will dry himself. Sincerely, THE DOG

In general, a healthy adult cat doesn't require bathing unless he or she has gotten into something that has coated the fur and can't be easily removed with brushing, Cats groom themselves naturally, however their owners should help keep them clean by brushing or combing them regularly. Their fur gets matted and cold whilst bathing, therefore not necessary.

This is actually false, it’s really inconvenient for most cats to be bathed yea there are certainly breeds that need more fur care and treatment then others but most of the time it just really uncomfortable for there fur to stick to them it also removes there sent. Cats also naturally clean themselves so there’s almost no need to bathe them. One last thing water also can be very loud and due to cats hearing being at higher frequencies then humans it can be very loud and startling to most cats!

Fun little story about my first cat: I had a cat named Guiness, she was a really sweet cat, she had black thick fur and green eyes. She really really loved baths, I mean when we wouldn’t bathe her, she’d meow loudly and knock down all the shampoo and conditioner bottles in our shower. Also, when we’d take her to anyone else’s house, she’d do the same thing until we turned the water on. The died in December of 2011 due to liver failure, we miss you Guiness!

I distinctly recall being lifted up and waterboarded as a child every so often for no reason and being so scared out of my mind and crying so much. My parents say that they were just giving me a bath, but that's not at all close to how it went in my memories. It's effortless to relate to cats in this way. I'm not scared of water. I'm not scared of baths or showers, I like them, I like swimming. But I'll always remember how scared and betrayed I felt in my youngest years. It's not worth it to rush things because YOU want it over with sooner. When it's ME that's suffering through it. If they had done it the right way, I wouldn't have been so scared. Cats are not scared of water. They're scared of you. And they have reason to.

I've tried a bunch of things all slowly introducing the water component SINCE SHE WAS A KITTEN and as soon as a drop of water touches her she immediately tries to jump on me. Seems instinct driven. I fostered two kittens later and they weren't as bad but sometimes if the water was too loud (used cup to wet/rinse them) in pre-filled water they would freak out the way my cat did and immediately went to claw at my arm to get out.

Dogs don't need showers as well. I have dogs since i am 7 years old. the only time we had to wash any of my dogs were when they smelled is like maybe once or twice a year. you can just let dirt dry and brush it out. also don't do it in a bathtube or shower. if you have a garden or any other place outside you can use buckets/ bowls of warm water. ALWAYS CHECK THE TEMPERATURE . DO NOT USE NORMAL SHAMPOO. get a dog shampoo. also if it's hot outside they like it even more to cool down. If you have a puppy. get them used to it early on. please don't do it in the shower. use a small bucket or bowl. don't put water over their face. don't force them. and reward them if they enjoy it

I hope you never own another cat in your life. Sometimes you have to prepare for cats who get too dirty to clean themselves, don't clean themselves at all, or just straight up can't do it anymore. Even if a cat doesn't look dirty, they may need a bath. Even if they don't like it. I have a cat who can't reach his back and I had to shower him. He didn't like it, but after that shower he was the most active and happy cat I've seen. And that was only because his back was FINALLY clean. Situations can be worse than just big cat can't reach his back. If you have a persian cat for example, showers might be required multiple times. Persians have extremely sensitive digestive systems. If you change their diet, chances are high they shit themselves and you have to clean crap out of their fur. I truly pray you never have another cat, considering that older cats will usually stop bathing themselves as well.

I’ve only washed my cat once and that was when she came home during a sudden downpour, covered in mud. You don’t need to wash them, but you might want to sometimes if they’re outdoors cats. It also helps with allergies Edit: my cat is only 1.5 years old and I might wash her more in the future if needed lol for now she’s terrified of shower heads but loves playing with water otherwise. The bit about allergies is especially for people who are allergic to cats. In most cases they’re allergic to the cats’ saliva, not the fur itself. Washing the saliva off the cat’s fur once in a while could help with mild cat allergies

They only need bathed on certain occasions such as, something sticky or toxic on their fur, fleas with flea shampoo, they can no longer or refuse to clean themselves (usually caused by physical or mental health issues). Bathed don’t hurt them (as long as your doing it right) but they don’t usually need them.
