Hi All,

We have been treating our cat for earmites, with a mineral oil based
medication.  The problem is that the first time I used it on my cat, I
added a bit too much and some of the product ran down his fur by his
ears.  Is there an easy way to wash this out, without a bath?  I tried
some baby shampoo on a wet washcloth, but it didnt help much.  Do the
commercial pet wipes remove oils? He looks like a little greaseball!

Thanks
Beth

Well, he shouldn't get stopped up with furballs for a while. Try some dawn
dishsoap on a wet rag and rinse well. It cuts grease (serious, this is what
the show people use.)
