You can use plain vinegar and water in a 50/50 dilution to clean most hard surfaces. Commercial products that are safe to use include Green Works wipes, the Seventh Generation line and the Mrs. Meyer's line of "eco-cleaners".
Nikki is adorable! Thanks for including pictures! Yes, PetSmile is expensive, but it is one of the only toothpastes to actually be approved by the Veterinary Oral Health Council. Here is a list of their approved products. http://www.vohc.org/VOHCAcceptedProductsTable_Dogs.pdf PetSmile is what I use with my dogs. (Last year they ran a 25% off sale before Christmas, so I stocked up!) Yes, it is fine to use Dawn on Nikki's feet daily, but I suspect any gentle cleaner would be fine as well. You may have to experiment to find the best shampoo for her. I have been very pleased with EarthBath products, so you might want to try their Oatmeal and Aloe shampoo for itch relief. https://earthbath.com/product/oatmeal-aloe-shampoo/ There are also prescription itch relief shampoo and conditioner products if needed that you can talk to your vet about. Good luck! I hope that was helpful and answered your questions. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.
It's fine that you wash their dishes with yours and use the same sponges. Just be sure to use lots of soap and hot water to kill any germs. Also make sure they are up to date on their deworming treatments, and wash your hands thoroughly after scooping Dollie's litter box :-)
Hello, thank you for using Boop by Petco. This is a great question! I did a bit of research and if you are looking for a dish-soap to use to clean your cat's bowls I found this one in Singapore. It is natural and non-toxic. As per the ingredients it would certainly be safe to use. I hope this helps. Best wishes. ( https://greenkulture.sg/products/dishwashingliquid )
This product should be fine to use. As with any cleaners, obviously ingestion would not be good but just being around the scent or walking on surfaces that have been cleaned with this product (once dry) should be fine.
