CATDOLL : In what cases can't cats be bathed?

Cats in the following situations should not be bathed:

1. Do not bathe a new cat that has just arrived home to avoid causing a stress reaction. It is best to wait until the cat adapts to the new environment before bathing it. During this period, you can feed the cat some probiotics to improve immunity.

2. Do not bathe your cat when it is unwell or sick to avoid catching a cold and worsening the condition.

3. Don’t bathe newly weaned kittens. They have just left their mother and their resistance is weak, so they are prone to illness. It is best to bathe them two months after weaning.

4. Cats under 6 months old should not be bathed frequently as they are prone to getting sick.

5. Do not bathe your cat within 2 weeks after vaccination, because the cat may have local or systemic reactions after vaccination, and bathing may cause other diseases.

6. Do not bathe a cat that has just been dewormed frequently. Bathing will reduce the oil on the cat's skin and may affect the efficacy of the medicine.

7. Do not bathe your cat when it is in heat. Cats in heat will become restless and their resistance will be weakened. Cats are already suffering from the troubles of estrus, and if the pet owner bathes them at this time, it will undoubtedly make things worse.

8. Cats should not be bathed immediately after exercising at home. At this time, the blood in the cat's body is still in its limbs and muscles. Rushing to bathe the cat will cause harm to its body. The owner should wait for the cat to be still for half an hour before giving it a bath in hot water.

9. After mating, cats cannot be bathed immediately, as their condition is extremely unstable. Bathing at this time may cause inflammation in cats. It is recommended to bathe cats after a week.
