Before bathed, check around  the parts of cat's body, since there might be a sore. Fungus usually attack the chin, armpits, inner thighs, soles of the feet, tail and base of the tail. Scabies mites most often affects the outer ear and the ends of the inner ear. Lice fleas often attack the top of the head, chin, armpits and groin folds. Remember the sore part, because your cat need shampoo and combed when bathed. 

Once everything has been completed, and the whole cat's body has been examined, we began to seal the cat ears with cotton. Make sure the water can not enter into his ears while being bathed. 

Pour cold / warm water to whole body cat (small cats should be bathed with warm water), scrubbed gently so the water can seep up the basis of his skin. Make sure the water around the fur get wet skin. Medications will not be effective when the water and shampoo is not reach the skin. In cats with long fur and thick you can easier sprayed using high pressure water.

Make sure shampoo does not get into eyes. Afterthat felling, brush and clean the parts that are sore with a toothbrush. Be careful when combing the wounded.
