Do you think they need to bath? Both haven’t bath for a year!

The answer is yes or not. If you cat loves to bath, why not? But most cat don’t like water. And bear in mind, they easily get heart attack. So, if every time your cat feel very scared when going to bath, don’t force her.

In the long run, the cat might caught heart attack. However this can be trained when the cat is still a kitten. When young, if they are well trained to bath, then they won’t be that scared every time we bath them.

It’s best if you try to bath your cat yourself instead of sending to grooming center. This is because, you never know how scared your cat is when grooming center bath them.

I have an American Bobtail cat who always scared to death whenever I bath him. He was so scared till he literally poo poo himself, every time I bath him. No joke. Imagine how scared can he gets if you send him to a groomer. For sure, the groomer won’t care the cat scared or not. He will just bath the cat forcefully and collect money from you.

Doesn’t the cat gets dirty if no bath?

Actually no, if the cat always indoor. Cats will always groom themselves by licking themselves. This action itself is a bath for them. For my cats, they didn’t bath for months and yet there’s no unpleasant smell when I ask my house visitor whether they are smelly or not.

Do you think they need a bath? Does they look like haven’t bath for nearly a year?
