Flea
Baths-An Important Part of Your Cat's Grooming Regime.
 There
is very little worse for a family then living in a house with a cat
that is suffering from a flea infestation. It's bad enough that your
cat is always scratching and clawing at itself, even ripping
large
hunks of hair and flesh from its body in an attempt to rid itself of
the biting insects. But unfortunately there is nothing to prevent the
fleas from staying on the cat. If the problem is left untreated, you
could quickly find that your entire house is full of fleas, and that
you are being bitten nearly as often as your pet house cat.
It is important to stop the fleas before they start to take over your
home.
Preventive medicine is the best way to make sure that your pet and
house stay flea free. There are several topical medications available
on today's market that are designed to prevent fleas from feasting on
your cat. Most of the products are quite successful provided the cat
owner follow the directions and use them properly.
Flea collars are a traditional favorite of pet owners in the war
against fleas. Strapping a flea collar around you cat's neck will help
prevent fleas from sipping your pet's blood provided your cat is not
adept at slipping the collar from around its neck. If flea collars are
your preferred method of flea control make sure that the collar is not
so tight that your cat has difficulty breathing and eating but not so
loose that your cat is in danger of getting caught on objects while it
plays.
If your cat already has fleas, the fastest way to get rid of them is to
give it a flea bath. Try to find a flea shampoo that is mild enough
that it won't hurt your cat or kitten. If you are unable to find a mild
flea shampoo that you are confident wont irritate your cat's skin or
strip its hair of its natural oils, try using a shampoo that is
designed for infants. Kitchen sinks are a wonderful place to give your
cat a flea bath, because you can stand straight up while you are
holding your cat in the water. Kitchen sinks are typically deeper then
sinks located in other parts of the house.
When you are giving your pet cat a flea bath have plenty of towel at
hand, both to dry your freshly washed pet, and to sop any excess water
that gets inadvertently splashed on the counters and kitchen floor. If
your cat is prone to bite and scratch when it's placed in a sink full
of water, you may want to invest in a pair of thick, tall falcon gloves
that will protect your hands and arms. If you do get bitten by your cat
while giving it a flea bath you will want to get to your doctors office
right away, even cats that are kept inside, have dirty mouths and cat
bites can get infected very quickly.
After your cat is clean and free of fleas, send some time cuddling it
and brushing its freshly washed hair. Let it know that you really
didn't mean to torture it and that you still love it. Eventually your
feline friend will forgive you.
Bathing your cat will be easier if it is something that you do to it on
a regular basis. If you start bathing your kitten when you first get
it, the cat will learn that baths are just a routine part of life and
are nothing to stress over.
