I don't want to use my regular shampoo on them (Philosophy Lemonade) because I think it might be too harsh. I don't normally shampoo my cats, but I have to because my kitten has giardia and the other cats could carry the cysts on their fur so I'm trying to decontaminate everything I can. Are there any good cat shampoos on the market? I don't need a flea shampoo because they get treated with Frontline.

Thanks!

I am partial to Earthbath shampoo. They are not harsh and they smell very good.

Earthbath is good. I also like Doctors Foster and Smith and Doc Ackerman's Herbal Oatmeal Shampoo. Just google any of those and you'll find them quickly.

If I have to wash kitties, I use the same soap I use on myself. Dr Bronner's Baby Mild soap...very simple, no perfumes or oils that kitty could ingest. I get it at a natural food store, it is also available in some supermarkets and online.
