Yes, of course! I didn't mean to imply. Mine did not have them either, but in reading up on D.B. as a cat shampoo, I found this added bonus in using it might come in handy for someone...

No problem. I just figured since DB helped rid wildlife of oil that it'd be great for my little guy. Seems to have worked well, now that he is all dry, don't see any oily spots...

He was.

I have another male who doesn't say a word in the bath and the female who would cry bloody murder if I even attempted to bathe her.

Use the Pots and Pans cycle for especially filthy cats and follow it up with a nice SaniRinse cycle. I'd avoid Finish detergent though. Tends to leave spots on in the end, especially darker coated cats. You'll want to use Cascade Complete if you really want your cats to sparkle.

Maybe just through the first scrub / rinse cycle.

Well... If your cat has "ring around the collar", you have to pre-treat the area with "Wisk"...

Anyone old enough to remember the commercials? Fortunately or unfortunately, dependent on how you look at it, I am...

Below a "blast from the past" 1971 Wisk commercial....
