Scrubbing Floors
I scrub the tile floors next door. I use a combination of Liquid Lysol and Tide, which kills any germs on the feet and make them sparkling clean. I use a bucket and a mop which works well. I also have a small floor steam cleaner that sanitizes my floors ideally. Some areas require a little scrubber to clean them area.
Counter Tops, Sleeves, And Tables Next Door
I use Lysol and soap on the countertops and the table next door. I also use a soft scrubber or a brush on the countertops. Wooden tables get cleaned with a wood cleaner, and then I apply some lemon oil to the wood tables. My cats sleep on sleeves that have cat beds and towels. The sleeves get cleaned with soap and water since they are plastic.
Cleaning The Dreaded Litter Boxes
I disassemble my litter boxes and then take them outdoors for a thorough scrubbing. I use a toilet brush only for cleaning my litter boxes and a 3 M scrubber. I put rubber gloves on before I start cleaning the litter boxes. I put dish soap in the litter box with the other parts of the litter box, and then I scrub them with the toilet brush. I let the litter box and parts air dry.
Cleaning Food Dishes And Water Bowls
I use glass or metal food dishes and water bowls since they are easy to clean and sanitary. Never buy plastic food or water bowls since they are a magnet for germs. The plastic gets scratched, and then it is impossible to sanitize them. I use dish soap to clean the water and food bowls.
Cat Bedding And Towels
I spot clean cat beds that cannot be washed in the washing machine. If the beds look bad, I remove them and replace them with a new ones. I use an old washing machine just for cleaning cat bedding. I use hot water and laundry soap on my cat towels. When washing cat beds, use the gentle and bulky cycle.
Cat Carriers
Remember to clean your cat carriers with Lysol and put new paper in them so you are always ready to transport your cat in a clean, sanitary pet carrier. Window cleaner comes in handy to clean the metal doors on the airlines. Cloth carriers will have to be spot cleaned with laundry soap.
Cat Toys
I wash my cat toys in my washing machine with laundry soap; they look and smell new. Some cat toys must be spot cleaned or replaced due to years of use. Sanitize your cat items to help you keep a healthy cat for many years.
Medicine Dispensers
If you have a pill gun, an Inhaler, a medicine cup, and more, remember to keep them sanitized so your cat won’t get sick from some virus living on the dispenser. Rubbing alcohol or soap and water works well. We all want our cats to be with us for many years. Keep their supplies and living area as clean as possible.
