Flea-free cats and kittens

by Connie Veneracion on May 12, 2007



If your cat has fleas, Sergeant’s Skip-Flea & Tick Shampoo (which we use on our pet kittens) has specific instructions on how to use it when bathing the pets for maximum benefits.

From the back label of the Sergeant’s Skip-Flea & Tick Shampoo bottle:

Wet the pet and apply a generous amount of shampoo working it well into the coat. For best results, the pet should be left in a lathered state for four to five minutes before rinsing with warm water.

So, there. It isn’t enough to bathe the cat or kitten using the anti-flea and tick pet shampoo. The lather must be allowed to stay on the pet’s coat for a few minutes to allow the shampoo to do its work.

They are just too cute! I remember a really funny photo I saw of a kitten that was dripping wet (he just got out of his bath) and he looked so scrawny and bug-eyed and adorable.

hi connie,

i love that you love cats and food! hehehe. anyway just to let you know sergeant isn’t really safe for kittens/cats. if you want something that is effective yet safe, try using Pfizer’s Revolution. works like a charm every time.

nice to see photos of your cats. :)
