Some cats are afraid of spray nozzles.
If you're planning to use a spray nozzle to wash your cat, turn it on away from your cat so your cat gets used to the noise. If you're using a flea shampoo , wet your cat's neck first so the fleas don't try to crawl on your cat's face. Follow the directions on the back of the shampoo. Usually, flea shampoo has to remain on a cat's body for a few minutes. If your cat has a serious flea problem, you'll have to treat your house as well as your cat.
