We’ve seen a lot of cat parents on social media using over-the-counter human products for their kitties skin problems. Whether your cat has flea allergies, scratches or other boo boos, we want to steer clear of these over-the-counter topicals if at all possible.
Over-the-counter topical products like Neosporin are toxic to cats, if ingested. According to the Pet Poison Helpline, “The active ingredient in Neosporin, neomycin, can cause adverse reactions in felines, including vomiting, diarrhea, and a decrease in appetite. Additionally, other components like zinc can be toxic to cats, leading to damage to their red blood cells. Therefore, it is crucial for cat owners to keep Neosporin and similar products out of their furry friend’s reach to ensure their safety and well-being.“
Many responsible cat parents understand that their kitties shouldn’t ingest these products, so they put the cone of shame on their cats when using these over-the-counter topicals. However, this is uncomfortable for our cats and it doesn’t remove the toxins from the skin. Why put them through that when there’s a safer, more effective option?
The safe topical option for cats (and humans, dogs, etc.)
Meow Mist Plus is an all natural, super effective topical treatment for cats that is also safe for ingestion! It’s made of a little known secret mineral that heals topical issues quickly and relieves pain almost instantly. Rashes, cuts, scratches, dermatitis… you name it and this product helps it. 🙂
And bonus tip: Meow Mist Plus is also fantastic for humans and dogs! I personally use this on myself more than on our cats. That’s because I get more rashes, scratches and burns than them. But we keep a bottle on both levels of our home so we can access them quickly when we or our cats get a boo boo.
Do yourself a favor and get a bottle of Meow Mist Plus for you and your cats right meow. You’ll be relieved to have it in your cupboard when it’s needed.
