Title: Baby Wipes and Johnsons baby wash.
Post by: TESS on September 10, 2010, 11:42:33 AM
Hello,
I wonder if anybody can advise me whether it is safe to use baby wipes on cats/kittens as they are alot cheaper than the pet wipes you can buy.
I also have to regularly wash 2 of my cats (they are incontinent) and i have read on another thread about washing kittens with the lavender baby wash....is this ok to use?
Sorry if i am not allowed to mention brand names.
Thanks

I'm sure Teresa uses Johnsons baby wash when she has to bath the hand-reared kittens, hopefully she'll spot this and confirm  :) I use baby wipes if the boys ever have 'runny bums', I've found the huggies ones good and they're also brilliant for cleaning up any accidents from the carpet! If you're having to use them regularly then I'd go for own brand, unscented ones as they'll be loads cheaper than the likes of huggies. Hopefully the rescues will be able to recommend tried & tested makes  ;D

Johnsons baby shampoo is totally safe also the lavendar one, its all no more tears so no stingy eyes either. Baby wipes unscented any make are ideal.

I've used johnsons on my eyes before (desperate mak up removal) and it stung like mad :( Pampers, huggies or sainsburys own brand work well on my twin boys bottoms, so I think they are really gentle :)
