bath wipes

i was just wondering are bath wipes good for cats other than giving them the real bath??? im just wondering even though i dont hve a cat yet

i use wipes for quick clean aka i rolled in the mud and mom dont want mud in the house ... I do avoid batheing cats for safety reasons..he he

I've found the pet-specific wipes are nice for a quick-clean. They take off excess hair and give 'em a nice (if temporary) shine.

I also use...please don't kill me, TCS police, LOL...one of those 3M pet hair rolling lint brushes on my kitty. A couple of times a day it really helps with the excess hair - Miss Kitty has hairball problems and this has helped greatly. I know it's not meant for kitty use, but it works wonderfully.

lol o ok. thnx

You can also by waterless shampoo from a pet store. That is what we use to clean pets after surgery! (most of the time the soil themselves)

ah ok thnx

I've never used the bath wipes. I have, however, used the dry bath powder. I use it on Peaches and like it for in betweens.

I like the waterless shampoo better than wipes. I got this shampoo from a vet, they used it on my cat when he was there. I can't give my cats water bath, they freak out. So, I use waterless shampoo instead so they smell like a rose.

I vacuum Bijou once a week. In between I brush him gently with a human hair brush.

Personally I don't think any wipe accounts for a good scrub down in the bath. I do know quick a few short haired breeders that NEVER bathe their cats and only wipe them down. But they rarely win anything in the show halls and feel oily a lot.

I cannot bathe Gremlin. He won't allow for it! I'd LOVE to be able to vaccuum him, but he is scared of the vaccuum and I don't feel like scarring him for life

I use baby wipes for his bum, and I will soak his paws in need be, but generally - he is a pretty clean guy.

Hee! I also roll Nepheline with a 3M lint roller. She really likes it!

Oh my, if I even thought about vacuuming Harley, he would have a severe heart attack! He is so scared of that thing! Haha, I can just about imagine what would be going thru his poor little head if I came at him with the vacuum!
(I wish I could tho! But I do brush him )

thnx for the infos

I use wipes and the foam stuff both work just depends what is needed for the job...

Ha! This is exactly what i wanted to ask you guys....
Cats are supposed to be generally clean animals. Recently I had a incident of Singa stepping in her poo and i had to wash her for that....

Ever since then I am totally grossed out of her running through the litter and then hopping in my bed to cuddle up with me...

Yesterday I wiped her rear and her paws with a wet washcloth so that I feel better with her in my bed!

Does anybody do a little minor cleaning before bedtime?

I use them for wiping my fluffies faces [the unscented ones]
