What's the best way to bathe a fluffy cat that hates water?
Cats do not tend to like baths however there are always a small portion that don't mind. Some grooming salons specialize in cats as well as dogs but I tend to recommend to just use a waterless bath that you can purchase from a pet store. Since the cats hair is also long it is important to brush him on a regualr basis with a brush for cats to ensure he doesn't get matted

My cat needs more rinsing. Are bath wipes safe instead of a full bath?
Likely that would be fine but make sure the wipes are pet safe. Lovebug likely grooms herself a lot so she is ingesting any chemicals the wipes may have on them. Please post again if you have any further questions!

What cat shampoo is safe to use, and will my cat bite me when bathing?
There are cat and dog specific shampoos available at most pet stores, or on big box websites like Chewy or Amazon. While you certainly can bathe your kitty, I typically don't recommend this as a regular activity since the majority of cats do a great job of cleaning themselves. Unless your cat is getting herself into something that is causing her to be overly filthy, I would recommend letting her do the job herself to avoid yourself getting battle wounds. Hope this makes sense.

When can I bathe my 2.5-month-old kitten and what shampoo to use?
You can give her a bath at any time! A soothing shampoo with aloe or oatmeal can help keep her skin from becoming too dry. If she doesn't like the bath, you can also use pet or baby wipes to wipe down any very dirty areas, or even a wet washcloth with a little waterless shampoo sprayed onto it.

Dirty cat with wound & bald patches: How to clean without getting wet?
Hi, thanks for using PetCoach! Poor Pocky! I would be sure he doesn't have fleas or a skin infection. If he does treat the fleas as that will relieve the scratching. If the has red crusty bumps he may have an allergy to the food or environment or a skin infection. If that is the case it is best to see a vet. Otherwise I really like water-less shampoo to clean animals that can't be bathed. Have a good day!
