Prepare the bathing area by placing a towel in the sink or tub. Fill with warm water up to the cat's belly. Brush your cat to remove tangles.
Rinse thoroughly with warm water, ensuring no shampoo remains. Use a towel to gently dry your cat, avoiding vigorous rubbing. Offer treats and praise.
Gently place your cat in the water, starting from the neck down. Use a cup to wet the fur, avoiding the face. Use cat-friendly shampoo and lather gently.
If your cat allows, use a hairdryer on low heat to finish drying. Ensure the cat is completely dry before letting them go. Monitor for any signs of distress.
Reward your cat with treats and playtime after the bath to create positive associations. Repeat the bathing process as needed, keeping it calm and gentle.
