The most important tip is to not use more flea shampoo than the recommended amount. Read the label carefully to determine just how much to use. Remember your cat's skin is thin and sensitive, so using too much could cause them harm. This is likely an unusual situation for your pet, as most cats are not used to getting a bath. Comfort your cat during the bath by wrapping them in warm, dry towels and speaking calmly to them during the process. Some individuals find having another person on hand to comfort the cat while they do the bathing is helpful. Bathe your cat in an enclosed area like a kitchen with a door or a small bathroom. Your cat may attempt to leap away, so making sure they can't escape and wreak havoc in the house is important.
