I was looking at the grooming products at the store today and I noticed that they have "wet wipes" for pets. What are the difference between these and the wet wipes they sell for babies? They look identical but with a different label. The pet wipes did not have an ingredient list so I could not compare the two. Does it hurt to use baby wipes on a cat?

I have used 8 in 1 wipes for Rockys eye area when it gets crusty. I found them in the dog section at petsmart, but they are marked for cats and dogs, and are specifically for tearing stains. They are about the same size as stridex pads!

I would ring the local vets and see what products they recommend.

Otherwise, I wouldn't use them and would just use a damp tissue.
