CAT SPECIFIC

How often can I wash my cat?

All WildWash Products are pH balanced to perfectly suit your cat’s skin and are gentle enough to use as often as wished.

Can I use all WildWash Shampoos on my cat?

We recommend using our WildWash Pro Shampoo for Sensitive Coats, Puppies, Cats and Kittens as our general cat shampoo or our WildWash Pet Cat Shampoo with catnip. The shampoos we recommend for cats do not contain any fragrant essential oils and some cats can be very sensitive to smells – even the ones we find delicious! However, there is no reason why you cannot use most of our Shampoos with the following exceptions.

We also do not recommend using anything with citrus on your cat, as a very tiny percentage of cats can be allergic. For this reason we suggest you do not use our Shampoo for Dark or Greasy Coats which contains Sweet Orange and Mandarin, our Shampoo for Light Coloured Coats which contains Lemon and Lime and our Fragrance No.2 Shampoo which contains grapefruit.

Is WildWash safe to use on my new kitten?

Yes, WildWash is gentle enough to use on kittens from 6 weeks of age. As kittens can be particularly susceptible to smells, we recommend using only our Shampoo for Sensitive Coats on very young animals.

My friend is allergic to my cat, would washing help?

Yes, definitely. Most allergic reactions between human and cat are from the residual saliva and dander in a cat’s fur. Shampoo your cat and also thoroughly vacuum your home to get rid of any stray hairs before your friend’s visit and we are sure that any allergies will be vastly reduced.

Can I use WildWash Shampoo in conjunction with topical flea products?

Yes, all WildWash Products are compatible with topical flea preparations. Do not bathe your cat however until 48 hours after the application of the flea product.

Can I use WildWash Perfumes on my cat?

We generally do not recommend using WildWash Perfumes on a cat as although it will not harm them, they are usually not overly fond of scents and in any case, will immediately start grooming themselves and lick it all off!
