Answer 3

Everyone knows that cats hate getting wet. Cats generally keep themselves clean, and therefore should not be bathed any more often than is absolutely necessary. But they sometimes get especially dirty, get bombarded by fleas or ticks, or get into substances that are toxic or otherwise harmful. On such occasions, it is a good idea to bathe your cat.

Answer 5

Personally, I never bathe my cat. She keeps herself clean and it's not worth the stress.

At most, I use the cat wipes if she gets something on her.

Answer 6

As yours is still a kitten you could try giving it a bath, it might get use to having a bath.

Cats don't smell & they keep their coat in good condition with tongue grooming.

Groom your cat regularly with a brush will remove knots, loose hair & most dirt.

Pedigree cats that are entered for cat shows are used to bathing from an early age.

Washing cats once a week is thought to reduce the allergen (cat's saliva) that causes some people to be allergic to cats.

The majority of cat owners only wash their cats only if it's necessary; such as: smelly rear, has fleas or has chemical on it.

The majority of cats hates getting wet, if washing is required, try showering it while it's still in it's plastic carrier.

The cat will still be very annoyed, but at least the task will be achieved without scratches & it running off. Remember to redeem yourself by giving it's favourite food after ward!

Answer 8

You don't need to bathe him, it's not worth the stress to you and the cat.  He will clean himself quite well.  If he doesn't, you can take him to a reputable groomer once in a while.  Good luck!
