Is it ok to use Hartz Ultra Guard dog shampoo on kittens?

I have some of that shampoo and one of my kittens is a little smelly and I wanted to give both of them a bath but the bottle says to use it only on dogs so would it be a bad idea to use it to give them a bath it?Is it ok to use Hartz Ultra Guard dog shampoo on kittens?
Don't use that on your kittens. You will poison them. Dog flea medication is formulated differently. If you need to bathe your kittens, get either a gentle kitten shampoo or use Dawn dish liquid. The Hartz, Sergeants, and Zodiac products have caused seizures and deaths in dogs and cats and you should really throw it out before one of your pets gets sick from it. Frontline and Advantage are two effective, safe flea treatment you should look into using.

Very bad idea, that stuff probably has some chemical to kill fleas and would be deadly to a cat. You can get cat shampoo or shampoo good for both dogs and cats instead. If you don't have anything else, you can use a tiny bit of Dawn dish soap.
DON'T EVER USE A DOG PRODUCT ON A CAT!!!!!!!!!!!!


Also, some animals are highly allergic (especially cats) to Hartz products. Go buy a cat shampoo or use dawn dish washing liquid.


I hope this helps!
