Basic Cat Shampoo

If you’re looking for a simple, easy-to-make shampoo that cleans the dirt off your cat, this is as basic as it gets. Your cat will come out clean, and there are no irritating ingredients.

Equipment

  • Bowl
  • Clean bottle

Materials

  • 4 cups warm water
  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup Dawn dish soap

Instructions

  • Carefully mix all the ingredients in a bowl. Then pour into a clean bottle or container. Avoid shaking the mixture too vigorously, as the Dawn dish soap will foam.
  • Wet your cat with lukewarm water, pour shampoo on them, and rub it in, making sure the soap reaches your cat’s skin.
  • Rinse your cat thoroughly.
  • Pat dry.
