Sensitive Skin (Cats) — Soothe, Nourish, Protect

Help your cat’s skin feel calm and comfortable with products chosen for gentle care, clear ingredients and daily barrier support. Curated by Canine & Co, this collection focuses on simple, effective upgrades—soothing grooming, omega-rich nutrition and matched treats— to reduce flare-ups without overhauling your whole routine.

What you’ll find

• Sensitive-skin diets: Straightforward recipes with elevated omega-3s and vitamin E for skin-barrier support.
• Oils & supplements: Marine EPA/DHA, biotin and zinc to nourish skin from the inside out.
• Hypoallergenic grooming: Fragrance-free shampoos, gentle conditioners and leave-ins to add moisture and reduce itch.
• Topicals & balms: Soothing sprays and paw/nose balms for localised relief.
• Matched treats: Limited-ingredient and single-protein rewards to keep your plan consistent.
• Pest control: Flea & tick prevention—essential for sensitive cats prone to FAD (flea-allergy dermatitis).

Pick by need

• Dry, flaky skin: Add a quality omega-3 oil daily; bathe with a moisturising, fragrance-free shampoo/conditioner.
• Paw licking & hotspots: Clean gently; apply a soothing spray or balm; keep the area dry.
• Food-sensitive cats: Choose a single-protein or hydrolysed base diet and match all treats to that protein.
• Seasonal/environmental itch: Wipe coat/paws after outdoor time; run a diffuser for calm during flare-ups.
• Kittens & seniors: Life-stage formulas with clear feeding guides and skin-supportive nutrients.

Simple routine

• Feed: Keep one base diet; add omegas daily and allow 6–8 weeks to assess changes.
• Groom: Brush gently 3–4× weekly; bathe only as needed with cat-safe, hypoallergenic formulas.
• Introduce slowly: Patch-test new topicals; change one thing at a time.
• Hydrate: Provide fresh water at multiple stations or use a fountain.

Home habits that help

• Rinse or wipe off pollen after outdoor time; wash bedding weekly.
• Choose low-dust litter for sneezy, skin-sensitive cats.
• Maintain monthly flea prevention for all pets in the home.

When to see your vet

• Raw, red or painful skin; recurrent ear issues; widespread hair loss; lethargy; or symptoms that persist despite a clean trial.
