I use Yesteday News which is pelleted litter made from recycled newspaper. They also have pelleted pine litter. The pellets are bigger and don’t track out of the litter box, and don’t stick to their feet. I use just a small amount and clean it daily. I also have a robot vacuum and it vacuums daily on a schedule so the house is clean without me having to do it. The vacuum was one of my favorite purchases ever! Thanks for using Boop by Petco to help you care for your cat.

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 )

Hello. The cats & kittens offered at Petco are actually managed by individual rescue groups. Prices will differ from rescue to rescue. All cats can do well if they are played with & fussed over once you get home. Can they get into trouble & sometimes make a mess? Absolutely. If you do not want hair & dander & kitty litter tracked all over the house, you should not have a pet. Cats may need to have their claws trimmed ( NOT REMOVED ) & plenty of opportunities to exercise their claws, otherwise they will scratch your furniture, moldings & walls. You will need different types of scratching surfaces, plenty of toys, a water & food dish, litter box ( or 2 ), & lots of patience. All cats are individuals, so when you go looking to adopt a cat, take your family & give yourself plenty of time to spend with your potential pet, & ask lots of questions about them. Good luck & thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Hello. It is always best to be safe than to be sorry. If you are at all unsure about a plant, it may be best to either move it to a room the cat cannot get access to, or rehome the plant. This is much cheaper & less heartbreaking than dealing with a sick kitty. I am so glad you are thinking agead. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

I am very sorry you recently lost your cat to FIP! I would dismantle the carrier, and soak it as well in hot water and bleach. Make sure to rinse it off thoroughly, and let it dry out in the sun. If you can take the cover off the window perch, I would wash that in the washer with color safe bleach. I'd rent a carpet cleaner or steam cleaner that has a furniture attachment, and use that to clean the cat tree. As for the scratching post, you can try using the carpet cleaner or steam cleaner on it, but if that doesn't work, you may have to throw it away and get a new one.
