Does anyone use cat wipes?

I just ordered a container of cat wipes yesterday. IMHO, they were kind of expensive. I think they were $8.00 for 30? I get much better deals on baby wipes (to take off my make-up when I'm lazy, not to use on my cats). Does anyone else use cat wipes? The ones I ordered got excellent reviews from other customers, but I still worry about safety. I am really picky about the cats. Advice, please.

I use Earthbath Cat Wipes on emergencies only, when the kitties look dirtier than usual.

My sister uses them to clean her cats bottom. (She is overweight and can't reach).

I use them on the cats when their coats get a bit dirty. They love it and they don't harm them.

Perfect for dirty paws and bottoms.

I recently purchased some to help with foster kittens if I need to help clean them off, if they get dirty bums, etc. Also sometimes the pregnant fosters need help cleaning themselves where they get so big. I have yet to try them out though.

I watch slickdeals.net for deals on baby wipes and buy in bulk. If not opened, they last forever.

I don't see the point in buying specific "cat wipes". Even the aloe ones, we're talking tiny trace amounts, and if its safe enough for a baby that puts everything in their mouth to ingest, I'm sure its fine for our kitties that lick poop off their butts.

Thank you for your responses. You've all been a big help. My cats are a bit large, and have some trouble with grooming their (low?) backs.

The only thing I worry about is that some things that are safe for babies (like chocolate ice cream) aren't safe for cats. I haven't seen any chocolate scented baby wipes, but it would concern me on so many levels. I don't even really trust the wipes especially made for cats, but I feel better that they will be safe.

I just bought Hart groomer's best anti dander wipes for cats. it says it lick safe, so i used those to clean the little bit of poo on her bum.

I am a little nervous because it smells really good, but when she laid down next to me, her butt just smelled so bad I used those cat wipes to clean her up a bit.

If anyone else has used these, please let me know :) thank you

I think those are the kind I buy too. Walmart, $2.00?  Yes, they do smell good. I was worried about that too, so I run them under hot water first, then ring it out. This way it doesn't have as much in it, but still works & is nice & warm when you use it on them. I bought them for when my kitty comes in after rolling in the sand or dirt! hobbes.gif
