JVP Johnsons Vet Cat Flea Cleaning Shampoo, 200 ml

Great value smells lovely no skin irritation no signs of fleas so controls fleas soft fur after dried and easy to use if the kitten allowed it to be 🤣

Great for the price, good flea shampoo. Leaves fur looking and feeling soft, does kill fleas, easy to use

Good shampoo. Got rid of fleas but dishwashing soap also works. It did make my kittens coat very dry so I had to put a light touch of coconut oil on her. And it was irritate the eyes so be careful. Overall it did was it was supposed to do.

This is always a bargain price, and that plus being a known/trusted brand is what keeps me purchasing. It’s unbelievable how expensive pet shampoo can be! I really like the methodology behind using this as well; let’s be honest, it’s bloody hard to wash a cat! If you use this as instructed the process becomes much less painful for everyone. You just some (20ml) in a small container with warm water and lather up with a sponge. I actually put the cat on my wooden ikea bath tray to apply, holding the tray in place across the bath with my body and the cat facing the wall. He doesn’t mind too much when I lather the shampoo on him like this - it needs to be warm though! It’s very easy to get full coverage and then I leave him in the bath for a couple of minutes to work it’s magic. He may shake a bit (like a dog), hence leaving in the bath to avoid mess! I stay with him to make sure he doesn’t lick. Then back on the bath shelve and I hose off with the shower head. This part he doesn’t love, but he tolerates. Holding in that position with his head towards the wall makes it so much easier. Sometimes I keep him in the bath, but the shelf is better as it drains the water off. I put a hair stopper in the plug to catch the hair - there is a LOT. This means I get to see the fleas as well. It shocks me every time that there are so many… I think he gets them outside, he loves to dumpster dive and hunt rats (why he needs to be washed all the time!!) Anyway, it works. Kills fleas, smells lovely and leaves his fur super soft. Wouldn’t buy anything else.

Ok, so my experiences were biased by the fact my wife and I were scratched half to death by our furious balls of kitty fluff. They took exception to being bathed...our mistake...however, this stuff was used once as directed and did not appear to make much difference to the number of fleas we got from a thorough de-fleaing combing session. Fleas that were definately exposed to this stuff did not die in front our our eyes like wee were led to believe. Also it didn't seem to make much different to the perseverance of fleas on the cats, so I dont think the eggs were made non-viable either. The bathing just really pisses off cats that don't like being bathed; fine for co-operative cats that love water; might even be a nice experience for them...but not for ours. One thing I would say however is that it did help remove some of the buildup from our cats fur, based on the colour of the water afterwards. I wouldn't recommend this as a de-fleaing option myself though; it is a lot of hassle. Instead I would either talk to your pet store or vet about a topical de-fleaing treatment such as "spot on" or "advantage"...some of these treatments need to be sold by approved vendors for the stronger stuff, but it made a far bigger impact on the flea density of our cats than this stuff did.

Smell great! Loved it

Used this on my cat today - she's been suffering with scabs from flea bites. I've flea treated her twice with Frontline Plus so hoping i'm getting on top of the flea problem but wanted a cat shampoo as she has quite long fur and the scabs were getting stuck in her fur. It was her first ever bath so she wasn't a huge fan but tolerated it. The shampoo lathered up really well and the bottle was bigger than I imagined so good value for money. I actually double bathed her as the first time I didn't get as good a scrub under her fur as I wanted. Lots of the scabs came off and I actually found about 3-4 fleas left that hadn't quite been sorted with the Frontline treatment. The fleas that came off her during washing though were all dead. Overall, a good buy. I was more looking for a shampoo to wash her in to remove the scabs but it seems it was actually killing fleas too which is a bonus! Don't just use the shampoo though - I'd recommend getting flea treatment too. Maybe wash them with the shampoo, then flea treat when fur is dry.

Good item helped my cats
