Anyone have any ideas on removing fish oil from fur?
I was giving my cats an oil supplement for a while, and Spot didn't like it and fought it, and so the oil ended up spilling out the sides of his mouth, and he ran away. I tried to wipe his mouth before he ran but since he was struggling to run I let him go because I thought he would just lick the rest of it off his lips. I did not realize that after he ran away I guess he drooled it all down his neck... Since it was on his neck where he could not reach he couldn't lick it off. When I saw/smelled it on his neck I tried cleaning it off but water or waterless shampoo didn't work because it was oil. It would not come out and it still won't go away it's caused a yellow stain in his white neck fur and his neck smells like fish! It doesn't really feel that oily anymore but the smell and stain won't go away.
