Cat supplies can be disinfected with alcohol, but you need to pay attention to the correct usage and safety measures. Specifically:
Usage: Use 75% medical alcohol, spray the alcohol on the surface of pet supplies, and then wipe it with clean water. Make sure that the alcohol is completely evaporated, and the supplies can be safely used by pets.
Safety measures: Avoid pets licking or touching supplies immediately after disinfection to prevent alcohol from being accidentally ingested, which may affect the health of pets. In addition, avoid spraying alcohol over a large area, as this may increase the risk of fire, and alcohol is highly volatile and has a short action time, so frequent re-disinfection may be required.
Alternative: If there is no pet-specific disinfectant, you can use hot water to soak pet supplies. Soaking in hot water above 56°C for more than 30 minutes can effectively kill most of the bacteria on the supplies. For local wound disinfection of cats, it is recommended to use less irritating drugs such as iodine tincture.
