Never given a cat a bath before but gave what I think was a pretty good one to Nacho after I found this site (within half hour). What I want to know is should I leave it and just keep an eye on him or have someone help me bathe him more thoroughly? And how long should I wait now before getting a safer/more effective flea drop treatment?
