Do not use alcohol to disinfect cats at home. Alcohol is harmful to cats’ bodies and can cause poisoning in severe cases. Because alcohol is very irritating, it will damage the cat’s nose and is not conducive to the cat’s sense of smell. Moreover, cats will be poisoned if they lick something containing alcohol. It is recommended that pet owners isolate their cats when using alcohol, open the windows, and allow ventilation to facilitate the evaporation of the alcohol, and then allow the cats to move around after the alcohol evaporates.

Disinfection methods for cats at home:

1. Steam mop. High-temperature steam can destroy a variety of bacteria, viruses and parasites. Families with cats can prepare a steam mop.

2. Ultraviolet disinfection lamps also have a disinfecting effect. Cats must be avoided and the room should be ventilated for ten minutes after disinfection.

3. Use pet-specific disinfectant, which is not only harmless to cats, but can also kill bacteria and viruses.
