How to Give a Cat a Bath??? | Warning: It's Not Easy

- Hey guys! This is the first video I made without my wig. I recently went through chemotherapy for the diagnosis of Acute lymphoblastic leukemia. I am 1 year in complete remission and have gone back to work! It has been one crazy year. I am so THANKFUL for the support of Zymox products sticking by my side through the entire year of 2020 while I was sick. Zymox is not only an amazing product, but it is a family owned business with the right mind set to help animals.
I am going to give Stanley, my male ragdoll cat, a bath in this video. Just a pre-warning cats do not like baths. If you have a cat that does please DM me on my instagram (LindsaybutzerDVM) some cute pictures! Since most Cats do not like baths be ready to do this fast. You may need to recruit a friend to help you! Be prepared with towels to dry your cat off right after the bath. Be ready to scruff your cat to make sure he/she is restrained safely incase he/she tries to jump out of the tub. This is a simple cat bath video. Basically I just put Stanley in a bathtub, soak him down and lather him with the zymox shampoo, rinse him off and towel him dry. I then do use a blow dryer to help dry him faster. He was also left in the grooming room for 1 hour after with a blow dryer on him.
If you cannot give your cat a bath yourself, you can bring the Zymox Shampoo and cream rinse with you to give to your groomer to use to give your cat a nice bath that has the LP3 enzyme which kills bacteria and yeast on your pets skin.
Thank you for watching this video. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to DM me on my instagram.

USFUL TIP: Skip to 3:00 if you just want to know how to give a cat a bath. As for all of her followers, the first 3 minutes are important.

thanks 😀👍
THANK YOU!!
Thank you
Thank yooooou
You asked for feedback on your hair. Here it goes: you're blissfully gorgeous.
Hey Diego! Thank you! That was so sweet! And made my night :)
your hair is better after treatment compare to your old one.
@@WilliamHollinger2019 horrible man just horrible smh…
Lol
@@WilliamHollinger2019 You a pretty woman
Wow, for a vet, I’m surprised… there are so many better ways. I put about three inches of water in the sink, have a plastic pour cup with cat shampoo mixed with water and another large pitcher of water for rinsing. The running water with a sprayer terrifies most cat. Everything is quiet and gentle… no scruffing! I let them sit for a minute, with my hand on them, to soak up the water. Shampoo water goes on, their favorite brush massages in the shampoo. I scoop and gently pour the bath water over the. For the first rinse, pull the drain plug, and pour the clean water over. Bundle up in a big towel for most of the drying. Leave them bundled around the head and they don’t even realize I’m blow drying the body. (I’ve had indoor only cats for 45 years. Currently I have four cats. Two are over 16 and need a bath ever 4 months)
Nobody asked
@@luv.sor3 it wasn’t 2 u
Thank u this was very helpful I’m def gonna try this. Honestly I was thinking the same way how they bath them looks kinda unprofessional. The cat looks scared and uncomfortable and I know some cats just don’t like water but I want mines 2 at least get used 2 it so their not jumpy and uncomfortable.
Thanks for the tips! Another one I've heard is to put a towel on the bottom of the tub for them to stand on.
Thank You God for leading me to this comment tdy 👍 love the diluted shampoo idea
Your hair looks awesome and super trendy! Congratulations on being 1 year in remission, that's amazing news not only for you and your family but for all of your patients!
Hey Fernanda, thank you so much!! and thank you for watching my channel! means so much to me!
I recently fostered a 1/4 feral mom and kept her two kittens for mine. She was a nervous mom and glad to move on. They came with fleas so I had to wash them all twice. I came up with this calm routine. The first time was a disaster with the two high strung females. The laid back male did fine the first time. Thought I'd share this technique: The key is quiet, quickness and Warmth. HAVE 2 PEOPLE. Have the sink area cleared of stuff they can grab. Have the second person warming towels in a dryer for you. Have the Flea soap, Dawn or shampoo Warmly Watered down in a cup off to the side away from grabbing range. YOU NEED QUIET SO DON'T HAVE ANY WATER RUNNING AND FOR GOSH SAKE DO NOT USE A SPRAY I learned that the hard way with a bite down to the knuckle. Have 4 or more tall warm rinse cups waiting also. Put the cat in the sink talking calmly and praising that's a good kitty the whole time. Put the sudsy soap mixture all over them NOT THE HEAD you can wash that later with a warm wet washcloth. Rub it in quickly praising the whole time. Try not to splash. One by one just as quickly put all four rinse cups on them and HAVE THE OTHER PERSON SO GET THE FIRST DRYER WARMED TOWEL. Once rinsed pull the cat out wrapped in the towel. Isolate in a warm room and use the other 3 towels on them as they rub on a carpet or a bed ( LOL ) Leave cat alone until they're dry and speaking to you again. LOL. I got two kittens and one adult in four minutes each. The first time I did it You woulda thought I was killing the two girl kitties. Start kittens early ( if you can ) and by the time they are old, stinky and not grooming any more they may actually like this.
I'm sorry, but I am HOWLING at the look on his face getting blow-dried LMFAOOO he just looked like "what did I do to deserve this?" 😂
😆😆
Stanley is alot calmer than how my cat would be if the water turned on. The blow drying he was so patient!
He drank some wine before bathing.
my cat always acts like she’s DYING when I put her in the bath. Not even with any water in it, she’s screaming and hollerin and being dramatic while I’m being as easy and calm as I can with her splashing me with water 😵💫
Missing a tiny piece of my lip trying to give my cat a bath it's very hard and they have nails uh
No need for a wig. You look beautiful with short hair.
One, love the hair! Two, I know I'm going to get some sort of funny looks for this but... I bathe my two cats once a month. One is a very outdoorsy one and the other ends up smelling pretty bad after a few weeks. I don't have a bath tub, I have a spacious shower. I actually sit at their level and have them on my lap, cuddling them while bathing them. They don't like it, but I never have a fight with them. As long as I'm giving them comfort, they get through it.
Becareful washing them that much it will dry their skin and removes the oils they naturally have very fast. Cats shouldn’t be bathed more then 2 times a year really
Stanley is such a good boy for going along with this. He’s amazing. Thank you!
This is my first time viewing your channel.
Wishing you well. You look fabulous!
I got a lot out of watching you bathe Stanley. I’m going to give it a try.
Thank you! I learned a lot.
Miriam from New Jersey
You look gorgeous. Wishing you complete and fast recovery.
I'm so glad you are doing well and feeling better! Your hair is cute and you are beautiful!
So happy to see you getting well! I love everything about who and what you are. Do whatever you are comfortable with! I usually have to bring my cat into my enclosed shower and i still get some scratches as she tries to climb up me and get out of the shower.
awe thank you so much!! Oh gosh yeah, my cats don't like baths. Thats a good idea in an enclosed shower. Yikes, I bet you got scratched bad, wet cats are not happy !
i am so sorry for what u have been through! ur hair looks super natural and amazing! i am so happy you made it through. i wish you good luck!
You’re beautiful. Do not wear a wig.
Agh thank you!!! I’m slowly getting my confidence back
Hey Claire! Thank you for this comment. I am just starting to get confident with the short hair. I never ever cut my hair growing up .. so going from long blonde hair to my butt to a buzz cut / bald was the hardest thing ever.
Nice cat
A well deserved congratulations on your recovery !!!
Welcome back. Love your vibe!
Awwww look how cute he looks all wet & crying 😂 I just love cats especially ragdollls 😍
Thank you! But this video was challenging because Stanley does scream so loud during baths.. he hates them haha but he was so clean after
oh gosh . he hates it
fluff cat
@@drlindsaybutzer
I have shown Mr Pudding how brave Stanley is.
Thank you Stanley 🤭
This was priceless. And I hope you're doing well! And I agree with that man, you are beautiful!
Calmest cat Ive ever seen being given a bath. Did you give him drugs to calm him
Down first?
Do you know what calm is lady?
I hope not. Ragdolls are generally calm and affectionate
You look and sound great after all you have been through!! 🙏❤️🤗
Sending love to you sweet, Dr Lindsay. We love you so much! 🤍Your hair looks really pretty. And it’s great to see your gorgeous Stanley! 😹
Awe thank you so much Nina!
hey Nina, thank you so much!!!! that means so much to me.
Sorry to hear about your illness. Wig is nice. Bless you love!!!!!!
You go girl so proud of you and yes your hair looks amazing
I'm going to give my stinky cat a bath this afternoon, pray for me!
Did you survive?
@@sahd0w yep, I'll be paying someone next time though.
@@LordandGodofUA-cam Nice! lol
This is the first video Ive watched of yours, I knew none of that, I don't know anything about you at all but what I learned in this vid, I already know your as strong as they come.
None of my cats will behave like this cat ever whilst having a bath like that, this cat is a saint!
This is my first time watching one of your videos. I've never seen you with a wig before but you are beautiful. Inside and out! You seem very kind, you love animals and you have a good disposition even after all your enduring. I had breast cancer so I kind of know what your going through. It isn't easy to work, have dr. appointments, treatments and a home life, especially when you dont feel well but you seem to make it all work. Stay strong and best wishes for a bright and healthy future.
Thank you so much!! Your message means a lot to me. :) my hair is getting even longer al the time!
Super happy for you and your hair looks fantastic
I am so happy to see you improve after all the treatment you have undergone. And I'm still your fan and using your UA-cam videos to teach my students of English. I hope to go to Miami someday, at least once to see your incredible work up close. Thanks for everything. God bless you
oh wow ! that is so nice!! Haha I hope your students like veterinary medicine haha because that's all I talk about
I discovered your videos today. They are such a joy and informative to watch. Btw, you're natural hair is beautiful!
Wear what makes you comfortable and happy! Thanks for the video.
As a cancer survivor myself you’re very brave! You’re hair is absolutely beautiful! Mad respect for you❤️❤️
So happy for you. Your hair is beautiful!
You look beautiful! Wishing you well on your healing journey
I'm watching all of these videos for advice, as a new cat mum. I need to bathe both kittens at some point but I'm so nervous 🙈. Thanks for this, it helps to see different techniques and from a pro. BTW, nothing wrong with your natural hair, it looks fab congratulations on your journey back to full recovery 🙏🏾
I'm with you. I need to bathe a 3 month kitten and I am trying to get as much info as I can before I jump in.
just a tip.. it would be better to use a bucket filled with water and gently pour water with a small jug as running the shower scares the cat and that's why they usually acts stressed out. Also approaching the cat from the back will help in avoiding getting scratched. Good luck
Stunning Stanley😀🧡
Great video! Good luck on your journey!!
Your hair is growing out really well! You look beautiful with and without a wig, I personally love the wigs on you, they look just like normal hair, do what makes you happy ❤️
Thank you de Grappen! agh I know I still want to wear the wig because I just feel more confident in it, but the next set of videos I will make without it since I am getting such great feedback from everyone. Its so crazy how attached we get to our looks!!!
That is one clean kitty now.
Thank you for the video.
you are beautiful! your hair looks amazing❤️
You seem so sweet and this is the first video of yours that I’ve seen. (Just recently became a first time semi-owner of a cat with my roommate, so I’m now always looking up cat videos.) I like your hair style. I’ve had short hair before too, but by choice, and was self-conscious in the beginning, but loved it.
And our cat is very difficult to bathe. We gave her one the other day and then I gave her a second bath just for her head by myself. She runs wild around the bathroom to escape and it’s so difficult. You cannot let go of her for even a second, but even then she claws her way out of your arms. We had a brief peaceful moment when she was already wet while we were putting the soap on. But once we are ready to wash the soap off, she gets wild again. And when I washed her head alone, I had to wrap her body in a towel. I thought it was going very well, until I realized she had been secretly working overtime inside the towel to get openings for all her limbs to be able to jump out of the towel. Then when we’re done and her fur is all wet, she looks so adorable and tiny because she’s only 9.5 pounds to begin with and she’s a short hair. After she’s done, like an hour later she’s always super happy to feel clean and smell good. But it’s definitely a traumatizing experience for all of us while we’re giving her the bath.
You look beautiful honestly the length suits you & so happy you're doing so well.
Lmfao at about to spray poor Stanley with a hose. OMG I'm dyinggggg
Congrats on your remission. My mom is a breast cancer survivor and it’s not easy losing your hair. You look great! I love your hair. 🌷😇
Looking more beautiful than before💖
You look awesome! So happy stay well!
You are beautiful, sweet, and very smart!!! Your videos make me smile, such good energy and the animals know it too
I love your hair, bless you girl!!
Thank yoU!
I love at the end of the video the dogs sitting patiently waiting for there bathes! I just gave my two year old cat a bath after playing outside in the mudd and rolling around. He didn’t mind it. I just put a little bit of water in the tub and used a cup. My 1 year old cat actually jumped in the tub whiling bathing my other cat like okay me next! The kitten actually loves water! He jumps in while I’m in the shower to drink the water! But the drying process is more of a pain. They hate the blow dryer so I just use a toothbrush to brush him near the heater.
the dogs in the background are all chillin the the tub like it’s party time
You look lovely in your own hair! Thank you for your video.
I love ❤️ love the hair You are the true definition of STRENGTH💪🏽Beautiful Cat thank you for the tips

NO WIGS! You are strong and amazing just the way you are.. thank you for your honesty and your videos.
For some reason your video has really touched me and in some way made me feel close to my dad who lost his brutal battle with lukemia in 2011. I hate cancer and I miss my dad. Who knew that giving my cat a flea bath would end up bringing my dads memory so present in my mind. He was a great dad and a soldier to put up with my mom lol. I thank you so so so much
New subscriber and hugs 🤗 for all you've been through. I think you're beautiful💐
We adopted a kitten during this pandemic and I read a lot of people were adopting as well. Thanks for sharing these tips. Crossing my fingers 💞
