Do cats actually need to be bathed?

Most healthy adult cats groom themselves well enough that bathing isn't needed often. But cats with skin conditions, very long fur, mobility problems, or that have got into something dirty do benefit from an occasional bath — and introducing baths young makes the whole process much less stressful.

Why is a shampoo bar easier for bathing a cat?

Cats generally hate water, and most owners only have two hands. A solid bar lets you lather directly against the fur with one hand while the other steadies the cat. No slippery bottles, no lids to wrestle with, no setting the bottle down on a wet surface.

Is the DERMagic Rosemary Shampoo Bar safe for kittens?

Yes. It's pH-balanced for cats, non-toxic, free from artificial dyes and fragrances, biodegradable, and safe for both cats and kittens. It also works well on dogs.

What does it do for the skin?

It's gentle, deep-cleansing, anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial. The feline formula helps reduce flakiness and regenerate healthy, soft skin and fur — useful for cats with dry skin, mild dandruff or sensitive skin.

What's the role of rosemary essential oil?

Rosemary oil has been used for years to improve blood circulation in the skin, moisturise hair and fur, and support hair regrowth. It also gives the bar a light, clean scent — fresh without overwhelming a cat's sensitive nose.

Natural Cat Shampoo Bar: A Paraben-Free Bath for Cats

November 8, 2013 · Cat Skin Conditions, The Dermagic System, Care Guides

A natural paraben-free cat shampoo bar makes bathing cats easier and gentler. The DERMagic Rosemary Shampoo Bar — organic, pH-balanced, safe for kittens.

If you’re looking for an all-natural, paraben-free cat shampoo, a shampoo bar is the practical solution. Easier to use than a bottle, gentler on the skin, and safe enough for kittens.

Bathing cats — start young if you can

Many people are unsure about bathing cats. Sometimes you have to: a cat with a skin condition, a long-haired cat that’s matted, or a kitten that’s got into something they shouldn’t have.

Introducing your cat to the bath when they’re young prevents stress and mess and makes your life much easier later on. Even with years of practice, most cats — and quite a few dogs — never genuinely enjoy water.

That’s exactly why a shampoo bar is so useful. No messing with bottles, lids, or trying to one-handedly squeeze a slippery bottle while holding a wet animal. With a cat shampoo bar, you simply lather it directly against the fur with one hand and keep the other free to hold the cat steady.

What the DERMagic Rosemary Shampoo Bar does

The DERMagic Rosemary Shampoo Bar for Felines is:

Gentle — pH-balanced for cat skin
Deep-cleansing — clears grease, dander and debris without stripping
Anti-inflammatory — calms reddened skin
Anti-microbial — helps prevent yeast and bacteria from establishing

It’s a feline-specific formula designed to reduce flakiness and regenerate healthy, soft skin and fur. Organic, gentle and effective for the sensitive skin of cats and kittens.

Rosemary — the key ingredient

Rosemary essential oil has been used for years to:

Improve blood circulation in the skin
Moisturise hair and fur
Support hair regrowth

DERMagic incorporates rosemary into a lightly-scented shampoo bar that allows you to hold the cat with one hand while creating a thick, rich, easily-rinsed lather with the other. The light scent leaves the cat smelling clean without overwhelming their sensitive nose.

Safe for cats, kittens — and dogs too

All of DERMagic’s feline products are:

Naturally non-toxic
Biodegradable

pH-balanced for a cat’s specific needs

All shampoo bars are handmade in the Pacific Northwest with organic vegetable oils using green manufacturing processes. Safe for cats and kittens — and great for dogs as well. For longest bar life, store the bar exposed to air rather than sitting in a wet dish.
