Clean up your cat’s litter boxes with mild dish soap, scrapers, and brushes, and have rubber gloves on while cleaning to protect yourself if you get cut accidentally. Clean food bowls, water bowls, and your cat’s bedding. Wash the litter boxes’ floor to kill germs and any viable flea eggs. Shampoo your carpets and clean all your bedding, as this will eliminate pests and cat dander.
Bathing and Flea Treatments
Bath your cat if you wish to do so. I like to use baby shampoo or flea shampoo for cats. Trim your cat’s claws so he does not accidentally ruin your furniture or dig his feet into yot. Use a flea treatment on your cats, mainly indoor and outdoor cats. The last thing you want is a flea-infested house, which will cost you up to $300.00 just for the exterminator. You will need two treatments before the fleas are killed off entirely.
New Cat Beds, Litter Boxes, and More
Springtime is an excellent time to replace worn-out cat beds with new ones. Replace old litter boxes that are gross and not worth cleaning. Replace those old, worn-out cat toys with nice new ones. Look over your cat food; if it is expired, throw it away.
Grooming Your Cat and Needed Supplies
Groom your cat. I like a cat brush, a grooming comb, and grooming gloves. My cats love to brush and have their hair combed and any clumps of fur brushed out gently. Sometimes it is best to cut out big chunks of hair that you cannot search through easily. Trim your cat’s claws carefully and never cut into the quick of the foot, as your cat could bleed profusely. If in doubt about the care of your cat, consult your Veterinarian. I hope you and your cats have a fabulous Spring.
