Vet's Best Waterless Cat Bath, No Rinse Waterless Dry Shampoo for Cats, Veterinarian Formulated Cat Shampoo, Kitten Shampoo, 4 oz

My cat Loves this stuff! My elderly cat, he’s 17 or 18 years old, stopped grooming himself and started to smell pretty stinky. His teeth and gums were causing issues. He feels better now and is starting to groom again. But this product is amazing. This is so much easier than a traditional bath and saves both my cat & I from the trauma of trying to give him a water bath. It is so easy to apply, it’s a foam, and I just rub it into his fur and then brush. My cat actually enjoys it when I put this on him and brush him. It does have a scent, but it is not too strong and fades so that he just smells fresh. I can’t stand most scented items but this fades pretty quickly. 100% recommend.

This is honestly the best product for cats! The product is soft, foamy, and super easy to apply to cat’s fur. My cat smells fresh and clean without a super strong scent, and his hair looks shiny and healthy!

She came home from the kennel this passed week (6 nights) and being in a cage with her litter box made her very smelly. She's an incredibly cuddly cat, so I had to do something about the smell. This took 2 days to arrive, which was nice and fast; and it was very simple to apply as it works the same as the foaming dry shampoo I use on my own hair. Not the best thing I've ever smelled but also not intruding or putrid, a fine smell to it. I ordered some pet cologne separately just in case, and I'll probably use the cologne anyway.The directions say to let it air dry, and as soon as I let her go she began to clean herself off. I tried distracting her but licking it off was more important, so I opted to wrap her in a towel like a burrito until it dried instead. That seemed to work fine, though she was angry it was happening. After it was dry, I was able to let her go. She feels extraordinarily soft, and there's a spot on her back that felt very clean, a spot I didn't realize wasn't being washed until after using this product. Though, she continues to try and lick it off. I'd assume this product was tested on cats before being set out for mass production, and I know most of the ingredients are natural, the only thing that worries me for her to ingest is Allantoin as I can't find much info on it and don't truly know what it is or if it's good for her. The package doesn't say it's safe to ingest but it also doesn't say it ISN'T safe to ingest so I'm not sure. Overall, I'm glad she's so soft, and I hope she won't be sick tonight.

It does have a sense, but my cat really liked it and it didn’t seem to bother him. The smell is not powerful and it dries pretty quick and leaves the fur feeling very nice. I would recommend for cats that don’t clean themselves often.

Our 12 year old cat has a double coat and as he got older he was getting lazier and lazier about grooming. Over time, he started becoming increasingly matted and then also began to develop very bad dandruff which was super apparent as his coat is normally a shiny black. Brushing was a nightmare, especially around the base of his tail, where the majority of the mattes were concentrated. It was also apparent that the skin in the area must have been irritated which combing near to only caused more discomfort. For months, I used one of these comb/cutter devices that actually do a pretty good job of removing a cat's undercoat. But though I could remove the mattes with this cutting comb, it was only at great discomfort to the cat. I bought a dog matte remover which worked well, but again, not to the cat's delight! The constant matte removal eventually reached a point where the cat would depart if he saw the matte cutter coming in his general direction, and at times we were forced to use electric hair clippers to get rid of the worst of the mattes -no fun for man or beast! Knowing that bathing the cat would be out of the question, I eventually stumbled upon this product. Upon receiving it from Amazon, we went right at it. The pump produces a foam similar to hair mousse, which does degrade fairly quickly into liquid form. Nonetheless, I pumped the heck out of it right onto the cat's hind end and used my fingertips to gently massage the affected area. Much to my surprise, the feeling of the wet liquid did not deter the cat from staying put and neither did the (very pleasant) smell. The fur initially dries to be a bit "greasy" feeling vs. wet, but he didn't mind and sat through the entire application. I was actually shocked to find that within 2-3 days, the dandruff issue appeared to have resolved, and no more mattes were forthcoming. My first application was about 6 months ago, and while a little dandruff returned very recently, the mattes have never returned. I attribute this to the cat not being put off by the smell of his hind quarters - let's face it, we can all imagine what the undercoat of a matted cat smells like! He took to grooming himself again and I think it was the fact that this product served to get rid of the mattes (and the stink!) and made his coat smooth and supple. I swear from the get-go that he knew we were trying to help him as we applied it and I think in his little feline brain, he then went with it. During the winter here in New England, our condo is very dry with forced hot air heating, which requires a significant amount of humidification to be added to the air daily. The general dryness has added a bit of static electric crackle to his coat (at times) and I think makes his skin (like my own this time of year), feel a little dry. I do plan to re-apply the shampoo this week and hopefully that will keep him as soft and supple as he should be and I know he wants to be. The shampoo has a very pleasant smell and really astonished us in terms of matte eradication.

Cats didn't like the strong smell. Not a bad smell, just strong. Soft fur though.

My 20lb orange kitty has strong opinions about water, so I’ve never bathed him. However, he has dandruff and lots of shedding that I can’t seem to get with brushing regularly, or remedy through dietary changes. He has coughed up lots of hairballs because of this and I feel so bad about it. He’s also rather feisty and doesn’t like me touching the base of his tail, tummy, or paws (he has all his claws), so cleaning can be tough. But I have an easy time with this stuff. He doesn’t like the smell, but I believe he associates it with flea medicine somehow which he hates having put on so I don’t blame the formula. His skin is healthier as I see way less dandruff, and when I brush him after the product dries, I get SOOO much fur off. There’s less hair tracking on the carpet and less hair for him to lick off himself later, which prevents hairballs and makes him happier I think. Picture of him after being washed and brushed.

Perfect shampoo quality skin moisture , ease to use , smell good not disturbance furrs. It lathers quietly and cleans very well without making your pet angry, that's very important especially after doing their business !!
