spacer Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Um...I assume you mean your cat accidentally spilled sunflower oil on his fur? It so, why not just give him a bath? Or if you don't feel like hosing down your own cat, take him to a the nearest pet store. They usually have a grooming area where you can have him cleaned. If you didn't mean "spilled", then I have no idea what you're talking about. :pinch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crisp Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Washing up liquid. Avoid contact with ears and eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrokat Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 I believe the overall census is Dawn Dish Liquid or The Vet - http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070520082241AA2SdHx Although I thought Washing Machine was a pretty interesting idea .... :-) Reminds me of that time I gave my cat kool aid - his beard became permanently red ....

Nick H. Supervisor Posted January 9, 2012 Supervisor Share Posted January 9, 2012 Yeah, just give the cat a bath. I know that's easier said than done with cats, but it would seem like the simplest solution. HighwayGlider 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiagosilva29 Posted January 9, 2012 Author Share Posted January 9, 2012 He already had several baths and I don't seem able to remove the stink from him. Although, most of the grease feeling is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCA Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 it should naturally go away over time. my cat smelled like coco butter lotion and after a while it went away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lnmnky Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 How about just use paper kitchen towels and let him lick the rest off? I wouldn't like to use human soap, as they might lick it off after and be sick. (The oil won't make him sick) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firey Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Did it the entire bottle? Try using shampoo on it. The whole thing. sweetpoison07 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrakeN2k Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 try rubbing cinnamon all over him and he will smell nice :) Or try a fried breakfast that's also nice. in all seriousness it will go eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kronckew Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 one solution: How to Wash the Cat... 1. Put both lids of the toilet up and add 1/8 cup of pet shampoo to the water in the bowl. 2. Pick up the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom. 3. In one smooth movement, put the cat in the toilet and close both lids. You may need to stand on the lid. 4. The cat will self agitate and make ample suds. Never mind the noises that come from the toilet, the cat is actually enjoying this. 5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a "power-wash and rinse". 6. Have someone open the front door of your home. Be sure that there are no people between the bathroom and the front door. 7. Stand behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift both lids. 8. The cat will rocket out of the toilet, streak through the bathroom, and run outside where he will dry himself off. 9. Both the commode and the cat will be sparkling clean. good luck. -the dog Alternate instructions: Know that although the kitty cat has the advantage of quickness and lack of concern for human life, you have the advantage of strength. Capitalize on that advantage by selecting the battlefield. Don't try to bathe him in an open area where he can force you to chase him. Pick a very small bathroom. If your bathroom is more than four feet square, we recommend that you get in the tub with the cat and close the sliding-glass doors as if you were about to take a shower. (A simple shower curtain will not do. A berserk cat can shred a three-ply rubber shower curtain quicker than a politician can shift positions.) Know that a cat has claws and will not hesitate to remove all the skin from your body. Your advantage here is that you are smart and know how to dress to protect yourself. We recommend canvas overalls tucked into high-top construction boots, a pair of steel-mesh gloves, an army helmet, a hockey face-mask, and a long-sleeved flak jacket. Use the element of surprise. Pick up your cat nonchalantly, as if to simply carry him to his supper dish. (Cats will not usually notice your strange attire. They have little or no interest in fashion as a rule.) Once you are inside the bathroom, speed is essential to survival. In a single liquid motion, shut the bathroom door, step into the tub enclosure, slide the glass door shut, dip the cat in the water and squirt him with shampoo. You have now begun one of the wildest 45 seconds of your life. Cats have no handles. Add the fact that he now has soapy fur, and the problem is radically compounded. Do not expect to hold on to him for more than two or three seconds at a time. When you have him, however, you must remember to give him another squirt of shampoo and rub like crazy. He'll then spring free and fall back into the water, thereby rinsing himself off. (The national record for cats is three latherings, so don't expect too much.) Next, the cat must be dried. Novice cat bathers always assume this part will be the most difficult, for humans generally are worn out at this point and the cat is just getting really determined. In fact, the drying is simple compared with what you have just been through. That's because by now the cat is semi-permanently affixed to your right leg. You simply pop the drain plug with your foot, reach for your towel and wait. (Occasionally, however, the cat will end up clinging to the top of your army helmet. If this happens, the best thing you can do is to shake him loose and to encourage him toward your leg.) After all the water is drained from the tub, it is a simple matter to just reach down and dry the cat. In a few days the cat will relax enough to be removed from your leg. He will usually have nothing to say for about three weeks and will spend a lot of time sitting with his back to you. He might even become psychoceramic and develop the fixed stare of a plaster figurine. Charisma 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
