Bathing cats is a common topic of conversation among pet owners. While bathing a cat is generally a wonderful thing, improper bathing can pose several safety risks. For example, frequent bathing can easily lead to excessive hair loss and, in severe cases, illness. Therefore, controlling the frequency of bathing your cat is crucial. Besides this, another important point to note when bathing a kitten is the temperature of the bath water. Have you paid attention to this before? 
I. Summer Time
In summer, the hot weather makes it easy for bacteria to grow. Regular bathing is an effective way to prevent bacterial infections in cats. The water temperature should not be too high when bathing a cat in summer. Before bathing, let the cat test the water temperature with its paws. If the cat is docile and doesn't move vigorously, then it's ready to bathe. A temperature range of 38-40 degrees Celsius is generally suitable.
II. Winter Time
In winter, the water temperature for bathing cats should be relatively high. Naturally, it's essential to let the cat explore the water temperature before bathing them; the water temperature should be comfortable. The actual water temperature is not much different from that in summer; slightly higher is fine.
However, you must remember that you should never use cold or very hot water to bathe your cat, regardless of the season. Cats dislike cold water, and bathing them with cold water can easily lead to respiratory problems, make them susceptible to colds, and negatively impact their health. Boiling water will scald a kitten and cause it to resist fiercely, making bathing it even more difficult later.
Therefore, generally speaking, it is generally acceptable to keep the water temperature for bathing a cat within the range of the cat's body temperature.
PS: Also, bathing your cat isn't something you can do at any time. It's best to limit it to the daytime. Generally speaking, in summer, it's best to bathe your cat in the late afternoon or early evening when the temperature is still relatively mild. In winter, bathe your cat in a cozy, air-conditioned room or on a warm, sunny afternoon to avoid letting your cat catch a cold. After bathing your cat, make sure to dry its fur completely to prevent it from getting cold and sick.
