Let your cat lick it off. Any solution you use will cause her skin to dry out. The vegetable oil will make her coat glisten when she has licked it all off. It will make her coat softer, too. The added benefit is that she may get rid of any hairballs she has, too. Put a little on her paws (after she has cleaned up this mess and is recovered) from time to time and she won't cough as much and her coat will always look shiny.

First of all I would love to hear the story how your cat got vegetable oil in it's fur to begin with! You'll have to shampoo your cat pretty well. Since its oil, it will take some time to get completely out At least your cat will have nice shiny fur!

Buy a cat shampoo from a pet store. You may not get it all out, but it should be helpful. If you feel uncomfortable washing your cat yourself take him/her to a groomers for a bath.
Although vegetable is not extremely harmful, large amounts can cause problems. Much like oily skin the oil can clog pores.

The previous poster is right. Dawn fights oil and grease like a beast! Your kitty might not want another bath, though. I spilled some olive oil on my cat on accident, and he licked most of it off, but I put a little baby powder on the oily spot, and then wiped it up with kitty wipe (no water bath wipes). This got most of the oil off of him. You might try that if you don't want to give her another bath. Also, I don't know about vegetable oil, but olive oil is a natural hairball remedy, so it might be good for her to lick some of it off, LOL...

Easy: Oil and grease breaks up with soap composites. So just shampoo and condition ur cat's fur. If that doesn't work, then ask a pet care store, they should know.

Since cats don't like to get wet. Very carefully take a cotton swab, and dip it in warm dish soap, then gently rub it into its coat. Then a take clear warm water and again swab it carefully. Then take a towel and gently dry it. Make sure you get all the soap off as the cat is going to lick the spot.

I'd use Johnson and Johnsons Baby Shampoo, in case cat fight ssome, it won't hurt it's eyes. This is what we use to wash off Pepper spray from felons, it cuts the oil well.
