The 8 Best Cat Cleaning Wipes

1. Hepper Wash Wipes – Best Overall

While our cats and kittens are highly skilled self-groomers and do a great job keeping themselves clean, sometimes we need to remove excess dirt, dander, drool, and other debris from their coats. That’s where cat wipes come in handy. Our #1 pick for the best overall wipes is Hepper’s Wash Wipes. They are made to be safe and gentle on your feline’s gorgeous coat.

They are also a great option for cats recovering from an injury that can’t groom themselves, and when you’re transporting your cat, they’re handy if your pet accidentally makes a mess in the carrier.

Hepper Wash Wipes don’t just do a good job at cleaning your pet’s fur but help promote a healthier coat and skin with their natural, moisturizing ingredients and hypoallergenic formula. They are perfect for your cat, kitten, or dog and provide gentle and effective cleaning!

You will be amazed at how these wipes can tackle the most stubborn grime and leave your pet’s fur smelling fresh and looking great. Hepper Wash Wipes are proudly made in the USA, and each pack includes 30 wipes that are generously sized and soft for a luxurious feel that your cat will appreciate.

2. Petkin Dog & Cat Tushie Wipes – Budget Buy

Petkin Dog & Cat Tushie Wipes are sold as being strong enough to wipe away stubborn stains and debris from your cat’s bottom, but they can be used to clean any area of your feline friend.

They are formulated using aloe vera, vitamin E, cleanser, and real Eau de Toilette to leave a more pleasant smell and a clean tushie. A pack contains 100 wipes and Petkin claims that they are extra strong to deal with even the most stubborn and difficult messes. The pack has a snap lid to keep the wipes moist and they are priced very low, so they are our choice as the best cat cleaning wipes for the money.

Although inexpensive and capable of cleaning all areas of the cat, the wipes are quite thin, which makes them a risk when cleaning around the bottom, which is their intended use, after all. Also, they are drier than expected from a wet wipe, which means that you may need two of them to provide a really good clean.

3. Duoxo Antiseptic Antifungal Cat Wipes

Duoxo S3 PYO Antiseptic Antifungal Dog & Cat Wipes contain ophytrium and other natural ingredients that act as antiseptic and antifungal agents. They are also free from soaps, sulfates, parabens, dyes, and nanoparticles. This combination means that the wipes are gentle enough for daily use but effective enough that they will soothe dry and itchy skin while also leaving your cat’s fur clean, shiny, and smelling naturally fresh. You do need to avoid using the wipes around the eyes, which can be a problem staining area for weepy cats, but they are otherwise safe for general wiping and cleaning.

Because of the medicated formula, Duoxo S3 PYO Antiseptic Antifungal Dog & Cat Wipes are expensive and the smell is too strong for cats with sensitive noses.

4. Wet Ones Delicate Fresh Scent Kitten Wipes

Kittens have softer skin and a more delicate coat, which means that you need wipes that are more sympathetic to their delicate needs. But, they’re also inexperienced when it comes to using litter trays and are more likely to get themselves messy, so the wipes still need to clean properly.

Wet Ones Delicate Fresh Scent Kitten Wipes are designed for use on young kittens. They’re reasonably priced, include oatmeal which soothes the skin, and they are gentle enough that they can be used for everyday cleaning as well as for spot cleaning messes after a failed litter tray expedition. They are safe for use on all parts of the kitten, ensuring that you wipe from the back of the neck to the tail and then use a fresh wipe to deal with problem areas.

Because the wipes are designed to be gentle on your kitten’s skin and fur, they are not as strong as other wipes, so do not do as efficient a job at getting rid of crusty messes.

5. Burt’s Bees for Cats Grooming Wipes

Burt’s Bees for Cats Grooming Wipes and Dander Reducing Spray is another good pick cat cleaning wipes. These wipes contain aloe vera and oatmeal ingredients to help soothe and moisturize the skin to help keep it healthy and reduce dander. No sulfates, colorants, or fragrances are ingredients that might irritate your pet or cause an allergic reaction. This brand also includes a bottle of dander-reducing spray that can help people with allergies spend more time around their cats.

The only negative thing we could say is that some cats will only let us clean their ears and don’t like the wipes moving over their bodies.

6. Pogi’s Grooming Hypoallergenic Pet Wipes

Pogi’s Grooming Wipes – Hypoallergenic Pet Wipes for Dogs & Cats have a gentle formula that won’t bother your pet’s skin. These cleaning wipes are larger than many of the other brands on this list at 8 x 9 inches. There is also 100 per pack, which is more than you get from most other brands. They construct the wipes using biodegradable bamboo, so it’s safer for the environment.

Pogi’s Grooming Wipes was a great brand to review, and we thought it worked well. The only thing we could complain about was that it had a strange smell we didn’t like. They are also stacked weirdly inside the package, and it’s hard to pull them out one at a time.

7. Furbliss Hygienic Dander Pet Wipes for Cats

Furbliss Hygienic Pet Wipes for Dogs & Cats, Cleansing Grooming & Deodorizing Hypoallergenic Thick Wipes. It contains no alcohol or harmful chemical ingredients, and the wipes are large and soft, so they are easy to manage as you are cleaning. Beneficial ingredients, like aloe vera and vitamin E, will nourish and protect the skin.

Furbliss Hygienic Pet Wipes for Dogs & Cats come in a large package, but they are not very wet, so it can take several to get your cat clean, and we found it hard to get the cat to sit while you use multiple wipes.

8. Inspire Naturals Pet Wipes – Best Cat Cleaning Wipes for Butts

Inspire Naturals Pet Wipes are very large wipes that are eight inches wide by nine inches long. It uses a gentle formula that won’t bother your pet’s skin, and it contains natural antioxidants that help strengthen the skin and aloe vera that helps moisturize. These wipes are plant-based and entirely biodegradable, so they are safe to use and won’t harm the environment.

Unfortunately, Inspire Naturals Pet Wipes uses a very mild formula that requires you to use several wipes to get the cat clean, so we went through them quickly.

Buyer’s Guide: Finding the Best Cleaning Wipes for All Needs

Ingredients

When choosing a brand of cat cleaning wipes, we recommend you start by looking at the ingredients list. Choosing a brand with a pleasant smell can be tempting, but it’s better to choose one without artificial fragrance since it can bother your cat. We also recommend looking for a brand containing aloe vera to help moisturize and soothe the skin. Other ingredients that can help nourish the skin include chamomile, oatmeal, Vitamin E, and more.

Size

The next thing most people look for when choosing a cat cleaning wipe is the size. Larger pads are easier to hold and control and can pick up more dirt and grime. All other things being equal, we recommend choosing the larger size wipe.

Count

The more wipes you have in the package, the less frequently you will need to replace them. Most brands come in packs of 50, but several offer even more, and we tried to point them out on our list.

Eco-Friendly

Many brands are starting to come out with eco-friendly wipes based on plant material. These wipes are biodegradable, so you use them without worrying about damaging the environment.

Final Thoughts

When choosing your next brand of cat cleaning wipes, we highly recommend our pick as the best overall. Hepper Wash Wipes has soft wipes with healthy, moisturizing ingredients to help keep your pet’s skin moisturized. Another smart choice is our pick as the best value. The Wet Ones for Pets Freshening Multipurpose Wipes for Cats with Aloe Vera are low-cost wipes that contain aloe vera inside a durable, resealable container.
