Because there is a difference between humans and animals, we cannot use our own perception to guess the perception of pets. Just like snakes and turtles will hibernate in winter but people do not need it, because the body temperature of cats will be higher than that of humans. We are giving water to bathe the cats, and like to use our senses to test the water temperature. If they think it is appropriate, they may not necessarily apply to cats. In addition to the misunderstandings listed just now, you must know when doing beauty treatments for cats?
Persian cat
1. The water temperature of a cat is to be washed by someone and feels a little hot. If this is true, it would be strange if the cat doesn't jump around for a long time after entering the water! I believed this at first and thought it made sense! The body temperature of a cat is higher than that of a human! But after actual practice, I found that the water temperature is so hot that the human hand feels a little hot, and the cat will definitely be crazy... The water temperature is still not It should be too high, and the cat's comfort should be the basis!
2. Remove oil from washing cats first, and it is like this every time
If a parent uses a shampoo with strong oil removal force to remove oil from the cat every time he washes the cat, then in a short while you will find that the cat's skin becomes more likely to be oily! Why? Because shampoos with strong oil removal are mostly alkaline, and using it like this will take away the normal secretion of the cat's skin. These oils have a protective effect on the hair roots and skin. Every time I take a bath, the natural protective layer is removed, and the skin naturally secretes oil. Isn’t it counterproductive?
3. The dishwashing liquid is good to remove oil, so the first step in washing cats is to use dishwashing liquid
In the previous article, I mentioned that dishwashing liquid is used to wash pots and pans, and it is not designed specifically for animals. Even if it claims to be harmless to human skin or even protective, what can be proved that it does not harm the skin of cats that are thinner than babies? This kind of damage will accumulate and settle. No one knows what the consequences will be in a few years. For safety reasons, it is better not to use dishwashing liquid!
4. Shampoos used by humans can also be used for cats, and saving money will also achieve the same effect
No human shampoo can be used directly for cats, or to return to skin problems. No matter how good a shampoo is used by people, the problems caused by human hair are all problems caused by human hair. However, human hair and cat hair are different from texture to structure. Why do you say that human shampoo will have a good effect when used for cats? Maybe it will make people feel good when used occasionally, but after long-term use, we cannot predict what will happen. The shampoos used for pets are designed specifically for them, and the skin and hair quality are considered in advance. Although pet shampoos are more expensive than humans, cats are originally so furry, and they don’t need to be washed every day. How much more silver can this cost?
5. The shampoos used by cats are divided into two types: long hair and short hair. It’s wrong! Even if it is the same long hair breed, can Persian and Maine use the same shampoo? The same two Persians, but one is velvet, which is very easy to tie, and the other is silky. Can the same shampoos be used for these two hair types? Of course, the answer is not possible! Because for different problems, we need different shampoos to improve their hair quality. To put it more mysteriously, the same cat is in different states at different stages and even every time she takes a bath! The hair is good in good health and the hair becomes boring and dull. Can the same shampoo or the same treatment method be used in different states? The answer is still no!
Therefore, every time I wash a cat, I always observe how the cat eats, how her body is, how her hair feels, and how she feels, and then decide which shampoos to use this time to achieve the best effect. This is definitely not an exaggeration or a mysterious thing. I have done nothing in the past few years, so I have studied cats and beauty. I hope everyone can benefit from it.
