If you are the proud owner of a pet, you know that it is much more than just a companion; it is a full-fledged member of your family. It shares your joys and sorrows, and you can't imagine life without it. Therefore, you want to give it the very best so that it feels good and is healthy.
Did you know that, just like their diet, the hygiene products you use play a role in their well-being?
Redness, dryness, flaking: using an unsuitable product can have serious consequences for your pet. Your animal's skin needs special attention to avoid harming its health.
To limit the risks while taking care of your four-legged companion, favour natural products such as black soap for a healthy hygiene routine that will protect him.
The benefits of black soap for your animals
Known and used for hundreds of years, black soap is a product with a simple composition. It is made without foaming agents, phosphates, artificial colors, or solvents. Its 100% natural composition limits your pet's exposure to harmful products and allows you to handle them without protective gear. For added safety, choose an Ecodetergent-certified product like Rampal Latour black soap .
Free from irritants, it contains no sequestrants, colorants, preservatives, allergens, non-plant-based surfactants, EDTA, parabens, solvents, petrochemical derivatives, or MIT. It is dermatologically tested to guarantee its hypoallergenic properties and will be well-tolerated by your pet.
For a dog or cat, black soap gently cleans and makes the fur shiny and soft.
Some tips regarding bathing your four-legged friend
Grooming your pet is a special bonding moment as well as a hygiene routine. It's a ritual that should never be unpleasant for your companion or cause itching. To ensure this, adopt the right practices.
First, it's not recommended to bathe a very young animal or one with a specific health condition. In these cases, the animal is more fragile, and the consequences of catching a chill from the bath can lead to complications. It's best to wait until your four-legged friend is four months old before giving them their first bath. Before then, use a damp cloth if cleaning is necessary.
After 4 months, bathing should not be excessive. Each animal has specific needs, and the frequency of baths will vary depending on the breed, coat length, age, activity level, and your pet's hygiene habits.
Therefore, a senior indoor cat that grooms itself normally will need less bathing than a young, athletic dog that loves to roll in the mud. In any case, it is not recommended to bathe your pet more than once a month, whether it's a dog or a cat.
To avoid making a mistake, turn to your veterinarian who will give you all the advice you need to take care of your pet.
How to use black soap to wash your pets?
Once you've determined your dog's or cat's needs, you'll need to find the right bath product. To minimize the risk of allergic reactions, opt for a natural product with a healthy composition. Black soap can be used for your dog's or cat's personal hygiene. However, before using it for the first time, apply the black soap to a small, inconspicuous area of your pet's body to ensure there are no allergic reactions.
To properly clean your pets using black soap, follow the steps below:
- Thoroughly wet your pet's fur with lukewarm water.
- Pour a capful of black soap directly onto him and massage as if shampooing.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
- Dry the animal with a towel to avoid the risk of it catching a cold.
Black soap gently cleanses cats and dogs. The Rampal Latour formula adds lavender essential oil to its composition for a healing, soothing, and antiseptic effect. It helps protect your pet from parasites.
How to use black soap for the hygiene of your animals' environment?
Your pet's well-being isn't just about bathing; it also includes maintaining their environment. Whether it's their litter box, their kennel, or their favorite spot, hygiene must be impeccable to prevent the spread of parasites.
Even though it's not a product that comes into direct contact with your pet's skin, choosing the right one is still important to avoid irritation or skin reactions. Once again, black soap can provide a natural, healthy, and effective solution.
