I cannot say specifically for cats, as I use it for my dog, but I honestly think there shouldn't be a difference. I rescued my dog 3 years ago. His teeth were so brown and bad, I had to have him put to sleep to have them cleaned. I have used this product for about 2.5 years. My dog will not let me brush his teeth. It has kept the tartar of his teeth, and I haven't had to take him back for another cleaning. For that, I think the product is well worth it! As far as the breath, because his teeth are clean (and the Vet agrees), the breath is much better. Is is it great? Well, he is a dog! lol I cannot say specifically for cats, as I use it for my dog, but I honestly think there shouldn't be a difference. I rescued my dog 3 years ago.

It's difficult to say. If you mean do they mean I don't have to do yearly dental prophase on my cats, no. But they are easy to use, do no harm and they do keep the water fountains cleaner so I extrapolate that into meaning it's keeping their mouth cleaner, too. As I was trained as a vet tech, I know that brushing is best, dental chews and dental diets next best and water additives after that. It only makes sense. But I do think the water additive helps the gingivitis. BUT, I did not care for the Oratene AT ALL, as explained in my review.

I don't know but our Vet recomended it for our Dog and we have been giving it to him for well over a year now. It helps to stop cavities and so far it does it.

I think it's best to ask the company directly. I do know that the product has worked for me and my cats.

This being one of the only shampoos that my little guy can use, I have used this for several years now and I have shared the bottle with a female friend who has used this on her cats for an external treatment of skin problems and she had great results with her cats just as it did for my Chihuahua just be sure that you do not allow the animal to lick the product off it's skin while bathing. Also, you must leave on for at least 10 minutes and bathe once a week until their skin clears up for the full benefit of this product. So in answer to your question, yes, it can be used on felines as well as dogs. Hope this helps and good luck to you.

Not really sure at this point as my experience with this product was a disaster! I would imagine that it depends on the cats personality. But, remember, it will spray you too if you are in range. YIKES!

I do not have a cat, and therefore can only speak to my experience this far using it with my dog. Honestly, I have not noticed a difference after using this product. I just got my dogs teeth cleaned at the vet, and am now hoping that this product will help with maintaining the cleaning job he just had done. Yes, you sprinkle this product on their food, using the recommended guidelines based on pet weight.

Bach Remedies makes a version for pets..i have purchased it and use it when have taken my cats in the car to a vet appointment or several hours drive on holiday..it is a liquid with a dropper and I put a drop on the back of their neck and rub it into their fur or rub a drop inside their ear and it calms them and has been very effective, no side effects..check the reviews for it on Amazon, its called Bach Pet Rescue Remedy

I haven't had to deal with cat urine, but have dealt with new and old dog urine. By far, the best product I've tried is Stink Free. It works! Use it just as the label states. I will leave a clean/slightly perfume-like scent for a week or so but when that has faded (and it does, trust me), the urine smell is gone with it. I had a bigm bad dog urine problem in old shag carpet and it worked wonders!

Hi bacala, I have looked everywhere and all I can find out is that it is listed as an inactive ingredient. However I have been giving it to my cat for a year now and it works great and no side effects. Sorry I wasn't able to give you an exact answer.

Yes but it did not work on my cat. She was still jumping quickly and biting and scratching. How very frustrating for us and her! The only thing I liked about it was the smell and the safer aspect of it. Glad that I got it at the add on price that didn't cost a lot, but its still wasted money that is hard to come by, if it doesn't work for me.. I'm so tired of buying things that don't work. Sigh.

yes it does but the product is bogus.. left my cat dehydrated and did nothing for his health.. when i took my cat to the vet he said that this product is bogus and it has no medicinal value what so ever.. DO NOT PURCHASE!!!!

Hi Iana,I have not tried this on cats, only on my elderly chihuahua and it help him a lot, you just have to be careful in using a small dose according to the animal weight.Bye

Heck yes it does! I was confused why my cats kept sniffing me after I sprayed this on -- then I read the ingredients and I saw catnip! Not a big deal, though -- they were just interested, but they didn't try to lick it off of me.

I don't know if it works on feline acne but it is worth giving it a try before taking your cat to the vet. I use it on my dag for a skin problem and it works. It can take up to two weeks to see the positive results. Be sure to get the HC1% in the pink bottle. There is a HC 0.5% in a purple bottle, which depending on your issue may also work, but the HC1% is definitely more affective. If all else fails take your animal to the vet.

It worked for my cat. He didn't resoil the area after I used it, and cats usually will. It says on the label that it gets rid of the pheromones that attract pets to resoil.

I don't know. I DO know that I had used it before and it didn't seem to help at all.... I had purchase other brands that were not working either. This time, with my 19 yr. male cat, I was desperate to try ANYTHING that may work! So, I recently purchased it again and nearly every day I spray the rug in front of my sink that had been his 'target'. He has not peed there since ....and it has been several weeks. If you try the product again, I would suggest spraying his 'target area' several times a day in the beginning to see if that helps. Frustrating problem, I KNOW!!!
