Cats have a stinky smell and usually need to take a bath, because they are prone to pollute the indoor environment and the owners feel uncomfortable when they smell it, especially some cats with heavy body odor. So, do you know that if a kitten who is two months old can take a bath?

Why can't kittens be bathed for two months?

1. Generally, kittens who are just born cannot bathe them. Because kittens are young and have weak resistance, bathing kittens will easily cause them to catch a cold.

2. Kittens who are two months old have not been fully vaccinated with all the vaccines. After taking a bath, they can easily reduce their immunity and even increase their chances of suffering from infectious diseases such as cat plague.

3. Most kittens are more afraid of water and blowing. If the owner forces the kitten to bathe, it may cause the kitten to experience stress, which will endanger the kitten's physical and mental health.

2. When can a kitten take a bath?

1. Cats can usually get the first shot of the vaccine when they are two months old. A total of three shots of vaccines to prevent infectious diseases are injected, and the rabies vaccine needs to be injected once every 21 days apart. After the cat is vaccinated, you can choose to check the cat for a triple antibody within fifteen days and check the cat's antibody level. The antibody level is within the normal range and a few days at the interval. If the cat's appetite and urination are normal, you can take a bath.

2. When bathing a cat, you need to use a shower gel for your pet, and you must dry your hair in time after washing to prevent the cat from catching a cold.

What should I do if a kitten is smelly on a 2-month-old kitten? If I really think the smell on a kitten is very bad, you can choose to dry-clean the kitten with no water washing shampoo or dry cleaning powder to dry clean the kitten, which can effectively remove the odor on the cat.
