Giving your cat a bath may not be a regular occurrence, but the kind of shampoo that you use should the event arise can make a big difference to both the health and look of your cat's skin and hair.

There are many cat shampoos and conditioners out on the market today. How do you know which product is best for your feline? Certainly you should never use your own shampoos on your cat. Human shampoos tend to contain a high level of chemicals and perfumes which can cause skin irritation for your feline friend.

Cats with long hair will need a little extra TLC, and there are several cat shampoos specially formulated to reduce tangling in long haired breeds.  Jerob's offers a top end range of hair care and grooming products for cats, that comes highly recommended by breeders and show cat owners.

If your cat has fleas or ticks, look for a specialist shampoo that can help get rid of them. You may also want to find a shampoo that helps your cat should they have skin allergies. If you are unsure of any product, always ask your feline’s veterinarian before giving them a bath.

Of course if your cat just refuses to be washed, and needs to hide his dirty hair then what better than a trendy wig?  Yes folks, someone out there actually designs, makes and sells cat wigs for your beloved feline. Whether they want glossy blonde curls á la 'Marilyn Mon-miaow' or a jet black do like 'Prrrriscilla Prrrrrrresly',

Or if your cat is having a really bad hair day, she could always cover it up with a hat like Yoshi here from Urbanbeast.ca
