Cats can clean themselves by licking their hair, unlike dogs who need to take baths as often as they need. How often does it take for a cat to take a bath? Cats are an animal that is very afraid of water. Because cats have very sensitive hair and skin, they start to struggle the moment they touch the water.
If you take a bath too frequently, it will damage the protective oils on the surface of the cat's skin, lead to bacterial invasion, and even induce skin diseases. The cat can wash it once every 5 to 6 months, or wash it every 5 weeks.
The bathing time is judged based on the cat's hair and environmental sanitation. It varies from cat to cat and is adapted to home conditions. It is more appropriate to bathe the cat regularly than the prescribed time. In order to prevent infection, not only should the cat be cleaned, but the living environment is also very important.
Managing long-haired cats should spend more time than short-haired cats, especially during the year, when the seasons are severely shed, and in the hot summer, you should pay more attention. Frequent combing of hair is also very helpful to prevent hair spitting. Although hair spitting is a normal physiological phenomenon for cats, frequent hair spitting will cause psychological burden on cats. Combing your cat's hair regularly is very helpful for your cat's health.
