What types of natural ingredients or special shampoos dissolve cat feces?

Ok, I know that sounds really gross but my fat cat tends to get her poop stuck between the folds of her behind and it starts getting stuck in her hair. As a result, I have to bath her once every 3 to 4 weeks. I used normal cat shampoo (tried like 4 different kinds already) but it doesn't really get the poop out until I run a bath full of water and make her sit in it for a while until the poop softens up and I try to get it out.





So is there something safe I can put in that area to help dissolve the poop faster and better? Or is there a shampoo made especially for that?What types of natural ingredients or special shampoos dissolve cat feces?
Hey, gross happens. That's what cats are all about and what we're here to help with!





To start at the other end (pun intended), you should first address the issue of her loose stool. Cat poop should be firm enough that it doesn't leave skid marks behind. I won't go on and on about it, but briefly, it sounds as if something in your cat's diet disagrees with her. Most often this is grain which is present in many commercial cat foods, especially those from the grocery store. The solution for this is to feed grainless foods. Canned foods are much healthier than dry. If you do this, you may solve the problem.





Of course, it's also a good idea to have a fecal analysis done to rule out parasites or conditions that may also cause this.





If you decide to change foods, be sure to do so slowly as some cats don't take well to sudden changes in diet.





There are supplements you can add to the food which may help with this as well. But generally you should strive to find a food that will fix the problem by itself.





Next up - kitty brazilians. You may find cleanup easier if you keep her rear end shaved. Your vet may be able to do it or you can look for a groomer. In between times you might be able to keep the area clean just trimming it with a scissors. Shaving cats isn't something you should attempt yourself generally, as cat skin is very loose and you could end up with a bald and bloody cat.





You might want to invest in some wipes and use those daily or as needed. That should cut back on how much scrubbing you need to do. For those and for shampoos, because you'll be doing this frequently it would be best to get something that's very non-toxic and very green. Here are some suggestions:

Soaking the butt in hot water (not too hot for the cat) and then using a brush on it should break it up. I'd add some plain soap to the brush to help break up the cohesian, but then rinse the soap off very thoroughly.





You can email a persian breeder (find one online) and ask this too, in case there's some trick that works better.
you are gross how can you let her have poop stuck in there for 3 to 4 weeks!! you need to clean it more often That's the hair around her butt. That's like letting a baby on a dirty diaper for a week!
