What happens if the cat doesn t dry after taking a shower? Must blow dry in time

Most cats have long and dense hair, which is very troublesome to maintain. Especially after bathing the cat, blowing the hair is also a physical job. So is it okay if the cat doesn’t dry after taking a shower? Will a cat catch a cold if it doesn’t dry after taking a shower? These are all questions that cats are curious about. Let’s take a look at what happens if the cat doesn’t dry after taking a shower.

1. Cold

The body temperature of a cat will drop after taking a bath. If it is not blown dry, it will easily lead to the cat's cold, causing symptoms such as listlessness, loss of appetite, sneezing, runny nose, etc. When the condition worsens, coughing, sputum, etc. Therefore, the owner must thoroughly blow dry the cat after taking a shower and keep it warm.

2. Hair is easy to knot,

If cats do not dry in time after taking a shower, wet hair will easily be tangled together, especially long-haired cats have longer hair, which will be easier to knot, and naturally dry hair will easily become odorous and the texture will become worse. Therefore, after bathing the cat, you must use a hair dryer to dry all the hair. During the blowing process, you can also use a comb to comb the cat's hair smoothly and start blowing from the root of the hair, so that the cat's hair can be completely dry.

3. Suffering from skin diseases

The hair of a cat is damp after taking a bath. When the cat has contacted the surrounding environment, it is easy to cause fungi and bacteria to parasitize on the cat, which in turn causes serious skin diseases and symptoms such as itching, dander, and hair loss. Therefore, cats must dry their hair after taking a shower, and keep the environment dry at normal times to avoid letting the cat live in humid and messy places, otherwise it is easy to suffer from skin diseases.
