haha hi people, i have a quite...unusual question, i think [since i couldn't find any matches in the forum search]

my little furry guys are now jumping, and sprinting all over my room and exploring everything, so....
today i dyed my hair again and threw the things away in the trashcan in my room.... don't need to say that one of my little mates jumped in the trash and scattered all over... so he and two more that were playing, jumped and stepped on the dye tube, and now their fur have some stains of red ahahaha

there's some way i can remove the dye from his fur? without hurt them or cause an allergie of course

or maybe there's no way? because it won't bother them i know, they're just a little funky colored xD haha

i rubbed it with a cotton ball damped in water but well... as i thought, it just cleaned the little mess of hair dye but the fur is still red hahaha


thanks to all of u and if anyone has an idea please tell me xD ahahahaha

Silly Kittens!

I would actually give them a bath and wash out as much of the chemical as possible. You don't want them ingesting it and water on a cotton ball won't do the trick, IMO. You can use dawn dish soap or baby shampoo, but if you don't have either of those just use plain water.

The coloring won't hurt them, but the chemicals used to dye it could.

It's 'non toxic vegan friendly' dye (special effects) that's why i didn't worry that much about the dye itself i just didn't want the kittens to be stained hhahahah

I cleaned it with water because the things i know that could remove a little of the color may indeed harm them like alcohol or makeup remover.

i'll try to wash the Red parts with cat shampoo, they're not too young for a bath right?? Haha maybe after 8 or 10 baths it will fade hhaha

How many times may i wash them in a week? Or it's ok to do it one, two time everyday till it fades away? (not a full bath just washing the colored parts)

I rubbed a little water and shampoo on the colored parts xD it really doesn't faded out the color but like they said before at least there's no chemical residuous in it.

But the way they step on the water bowl all the time i think they're already familiarized with water hahahaaha i hope it'll not be a problem if i need to bath them one day hahahhha
