22 Cat Products You Can Use with Dogs (best for multi-pet households)


There are “cat products” and there are “dog products.” That’s the way it’s always been if you ask pet parents of either species. But, there are some pet supplies that can be used with both species, and if you’re a multi-pet owner, you’ll likely appreciate the 2-in-1 ability of these cat products that can be used with dogs.

I’ve also managed to find some food items that work for both pets. But before we look at the cat foods and supplies on the below list, it’s important to note that the nutritional needs of cats and dogs are dissimilar. You should never feed cat food to a dog or vice versa unless that food has been specifically developed for both species. Keep this in mind if you decide to investigate the use of other cat products on your dog.

Likewise, size is another big factor to consider – cat products are typically much smaller than dog products. In the case of toys, a small cat toy could pose a choking hazard to medium and large breeds. Less dangerously, clothing designed for the feline body may not fit a canine of the same weight quite as well, resulting in a waste of money.

As with any pet supplies that you buy for your dog, be mindful of your Fido’s needs. Keep his preferences in mind particularly when purchasing toys. Think about the pet’s safety as well, minding the canine’s size and behavior.

Pro Bloom is a great addition for dogs with sensitive tummies too, although be warned, not all dogs are as tolerant of this supplement as they are of the previous two from Honest Kitchen.

Dechra Miconahex + Triz Pet ShampooHaving a cat with a skin infection is…there really is no word for it because not only is your cat uncomfortable, they’re stinky and in need of a bath too.

Zymox Ear SolutionIf your cat has chronic problems with its ears then we recommend giving Zymox Ear Solution a try. A non-invasive ear solution, it comes in a nifty squeeze bottle that’s small enough to hold and the solution gets rid of ear debris quickly while killing off any yeast, bacteria, or fungus. It also relieves that inflammation and reduces itching which makes for one happy kitty.

Just be sure to read the directions for applying for your cat and be sure to stop using it if you notice those ears getting worse. Have a dog with chronic ear infections? You can use Zymox Ear Solution on them too, just a squeeze into the ear and wipe the outer inside of the ear to take care of that infection in no time.

VetriScience Composure Pro Bite Size ChewsAnother solution for anxious cats, VetriScience, Composure Pro is bite-sized chews that work from the inside rather than the sprays and drops that calm anxiety through scent. Flavored with chicken liver, just give your cat one of these chews before heading to the vet and you’ll notice them calm down to where it’s not a traumatizing event for either of you.

These chews are also safe for anxious dogs too although we find the efficacy depends greatly on the type of anxiety your dog has and the severity of it. (Personally, I had a Labrador with heart-stopping anxiety, and chews like this did nothing for him, but a family terrier with minor noise anxiety showed great improvement!) These chews also have the added benefit of supporting cognitive and brain function, which makes them a beneficial daily supplement for senior dogs with cognitive dysfunction.

Price: $28.44

Glandex Pet Wipes, Cleansing & Deodorizing Anal Gland Hygienic WipesThere are few things as unpleasant as your cat getting as close as possible only to lend a whiff of those stinky anal glands in the process. We know, you love your pets even when they’re stinky, but there is a certain degree of unpleasantness that no human should withstand, and the smell of anal glands is right up there. So, grab Glandex Pet Wipes, a quick wipe of your kitty’s hind end, and that offensive odor is banished.

Not only that, but the wipes themselves are soothing to your cat’s skin. An added bonus? You can use these wipes on the rest of your cat! Have a dog with anal gland issues?

Arava Pet Eye WipesIf you have a cat with allergies or regular eye infections then you know the difficulty of never-ending eye boogers. Try and wipe them away quickly and you wipe it across their face and end up with a very annoyed cat. That’s why we like Arava Pet Eye Wipes. They’re all-natural so they’re safe for use on eyes, but they’re big enough to wipe away eye boogers and discharge without swiping them across your cat’s face.

Does your dog have allergies too? (Remember that Labrador I mentioned above?) Arava wipes are safe for your dog as well and just one wipe in the morning gets rid of those green sticky boogers caused by spring and summer pollen!

Price: $14.99

Bodhi Dog All-Natural Apple Detangling SprayIf you have a long-haired cat who hated to be brushed then simply put, we feel sorry for you.

A quick spritz on your long-haired cat’s coat makes brushing quick and easy and eliminates those painful tangles and mats that make brushing such an unpleasant experience.

Free from detergents, alcohol, parabens, SLS, and any harmful chemicals, you also don’t have to worry about skin irritation and can use this solution a couple of times a week if not daily. Does your dog have a long coat too? Bodhi Dog spray is just as safe for dogs and all it takes is a simple spritz before brushing through their coat to eliminate those tangles and leave their coat shining.

Solid Gold SeaMeal Kelp-Based Supplement for Skin & Coat, Digestive & Immune HealthSometimes pets are just unhealthy and if you have a cat with skin, coat, digestive, or immune trouble, then Solid Gold SeaMeal Kelp-Based Supplement is an addition that you need to make to your cat’s daily meal. All you need to do is sprinkle a little of this natural (and stinky) powder on your cat’s daily food and leave them to it.

There is a chewable version of this supplement available too, but we find that our cats are much more amenable to the powdered version. The chewable version of SeaMeal is ideal for use in dogs, though. Just offer the supplement as a treat and most dogs will wolf them down – mostly due to the fishy smell! Plus, the benefits to your dog are the same as those for your cat!

Price: $14.95Forticept Blue Butter Antimicrobial Gel

If your cat suffers from skin infections, such as acne, yeast infection, ringworm, or its wounds, sores, rashes take too long to heal, this is the holy grail for him. Forticept Blue Butter is clinically proven effective in treating wounds hotspots, burns, post-surgical sites, lacerations, and skin rashes and infections.

Does your dog have similar issues with its wounds and cuts? This anti-microbial gel is safe for use on your dog too. Its non-toxic, ph-balanced formula makes it safe for your furry friend and for the whole family. In fact, it’s safer than antibiotics and steroid treatments for wounds. What we also like about this gel is that it stays on your dog’s skin for a long time and it doesn’t leave a stain. Furthermore, it doesn’t sting, irritate or burn your pet’s skin, unlike wound treatment products with alcohol and iodine.
