Cat Grooming & Bathing

Cat grooming & bathing tools & supplies

Provide your feline with the complete care they deserve with cat grooming and bathing tools from Petco. After all a clean and healthy feline is easier to maintain with the right grooming and bathing tools and supplies. Because not all pets take to water and new products right away, you must slowly introduce them to your cat and be prepared to resort to new and different approaches. Your most important priority during cat grooming should be their stress levels, so be patient and be prepared to breakdown each part into manageable and short sessions. Don't be discouraged if your cat becomes vocal or defensive, but be prepared to use a partner to soothe them as you take care of them with proper grooming tools. Brushing alone, cannot cover all of our pet’s needs, but it can help you spot issues before they become bigger and more expensive vet visits.

Some pet parents tend to their pet's nails first and use claw covers, to keep scratching from becoming an issue during other necessary grooming activities. Nail clippers and files are useful cat grooming supplies, however you may find that you will have to use treats and short sessions to get every claw trimmed. You can also use cat bathing as a way to soften claws before trimming them. Cat bathing should include shampoos especially formulated for your feline, so you can effectively and safely remove grease, dirt and oils. You can also use specialized ear washes during cat bathing to give you pet some itch relief if they're suffering from ear mites.

If your cat isn't a fan of bathing, you may want to consider using wipes or waterless shampoos to keep your feline smelling fresh. To keep their auditory health at its best, you’ll also want to invest in some ear wipes for a thoroughly clean dry cat bathing experience. There are also spray cat flea shampoos and grooming supplies available if your home is experiencing an infestation.
