Cats cannot use human body wash. The skin structure, sweat glands, and metabolism of humans and cats are different. Human shower gel will wash away the protective oils on the surface of cat skin, causing dry skin, itching, allergies, dandruff, and a series of other problems, thereby causing skin diseases. Cats also have the habit of licking their fur. If the cat uses human body wash, it will have some negative effects if it licks its fur again.

What should you pay attention to when bathing a cat?

1. Cats under three months old cannot be bathed as their resistance is very low.

2. Cats that have just been vaccinated cannot take a bath, as this will cause the vaccine’s efficacy to disappear.

3. Use warm water and be sure to wipe the hair clean.

4. It is best to go to the pet store for a bath occasionally, which can help the cat clean the places that the owner cannot clean. Therefore, it is recommended to go to the pet store every once in a while.
