The DERMagic Rosemary Shampoo Bar is gentle and deep-cleansing, formulated specifically for cats — which above all means formulated without tea tree oil — and designed to make bath time considerably easier on both of you.
A shampoo bar made for cats
Does your cat suffer from skin conditions? This natural organic shampoo bar from Dermagic will leave their coat and skin soft and healthy.
The DERMagic Rosemary Shampoo Bar for felines is gentle and deep-cleansing, and the feline formula is built without tea tree oil. We have withdrawn “anti-inflammatory, and anti-microbial” from this line — we cannot support either claim, and a product presented as treating inflammation or infection is presenting itself as a veterinary medicine rather than a wash.
Why rosemary
Rosemary essential oils have been used for years to:
- Improve blood circulation in the skin
- Moisturise hair and skin
- Help prevent hair loss
DERMagic has incorporated this healing oil into a lightly-scented shampoo bar that’s designed for the reality of bathing a cat — hold the cat with one hand while creating a thick, rich, easily-rinsed lather with the other. The result: an easier, more relaxing bath for both of you.
Built for feline needs
All DERMagic feline products are:
- Free from tea tree oil — the claim that actually matters for a species that grooms everything off and swallows it
- Water-free, so no preservative is needed at all
- Biodegradable
- Free from artificial dyes and fragrances
We have dropped “naturally non-toxic” and “pH-balanced for a cat’s specific needs” from this list. The first is too broad a blanket claim; the second contradicted us, because a saponified bar is alkaline at around pH 9 to 10 and there is no single feline skin pH to balance to. The bar rinses off, which is why that doesn’t end up being a problem — but it is not what “pH-balanced” means. The full account is in our guide to the feline bar.
The shampoo bars are handmade in the Pacific Northwest using organic vegetable oils and green manufacturing processes.
Safe for cats and kittens — and great for dogs too.

Care tip
For the longest possible bar life, store the shampoo bar exposed to air between baths — not sealed in a damp dish. A well-aired bar will last considerably longer than one that’s left wet.
Why this one and not the tea tree bar
The single thing that makes this a feline product is that it contains no tea tree oil. Cats groom off and swallow whatever you apply to their coat, which turns a topical application into an oral dose, and cats clear these compounds less readily than dogs do. Concentrated tea tree oil has a substantial veterinary poisoning record in both species — 443 documented cases in one ten-year review — and the severe cases skew towards young, small cats. The full evidence, including what we can and cannot claim about the oil, is in is tea tree oil safe for dogs and cats.
