Can this be washed/disinfected to be used on multiple cats?

With some light soap and warm water, yes. However, it takes a long time to dry. If you have a dish-rack, leaving it opened as much as you can for a few days will do it. Don't think it would do well in a dishwasher or washing machine as the very fine plastic might melt.

It could definitely be washed. But, it isn't my top pick for brushing cats.

It is washable, but I have no idea if it's safe to use on more than one cat.

I've washed mine in the top rack, left it in there to dry too. I don't have this out for the cats too often, it is only for special treat time so it doesn't get washed a whole lot but after a dozen or so washes, it seems to survive fine on top rack on normal cycle.

I wouldn't have tried to use this on a cat. I used it on a dog. I've taken my cats on a six day car ride before - a tear down crate with a temporary litter box and bedding inside was the only way to go. Your cat will shred any kind of diaper right off.

if its cat urine or I would certainly use the one specifically for cat urine. Depending on the amount of urine an dhow long before washing you may want to soak it in the NM and some good detergent beforehand.

I use the same brush for my two cats, who are brother and sister. I suppose that if one cat had a horribly dirty mouth, I might not want to share the brush. But, in general, cleaning the brush after each use should be fine. After all, if the cats lick each other or eat out of the same bowl, they are sharing germs!

I used a kitchen "all surface" cleaner that had bleach in it, and it came out fine. After I was done cleaning it, I scrubbed it with just water for a bit, to make sure my cats wouldn't lick it and get sick or something.

Flat out... yes. Once I got the collar tight enough, my cat quit using my family room as a litter box, and he doesn't seem to think any other spot he has access to is suitable to use except the actual litter boxes. I have two cats and three litter boxes in the laundry room. The boxes are cleaned twice a day. I don't know if you can use three collars with one device; I only have one cat that's a problem. Refer to the other answers on that one.

I have never put any parts of the Cat IT in the dishwasher, so I don't know. But since there is no indication either on the parts themselves or on the box, that they are dishwasher safe, I would be extremely hesitant to put them in the dishwasher. I wash mine by hand using dish washing liquid and hot water. Hope this helps.

I had a disabled, incontinent cat. She had her own living area, covered with whelping mats, which I washed in "NoRoma Industrial Odor Eliminating Laundry Wash" (available on Amazon). It is expensive, but works wonderfully. I set the washer for the longest cycle possible (cold-water wash). You need to use the full amount suggested, even in a front-loading washer.

Yes! We wash ours. We take them off and wash and then my husband puts it all make together . We have three for inside. The cats love them. For outside cats I use a regular heating pad but I should really get a heated house for the outside ones. But the outside ones have shelter in the basement.

I don't see why not. I think it would work just fine for those self-cleaning litter boxes, but I don't use those for my cats.

No, my pet repeller does not need to be washed. My dog does not put his paw on it. I had this for one year

Yes. My cat is 9lbs and it is just the right size. I would rinse it off and air it out before you use it. Mine had a strong chemical smell that eventually went away.

I use it for my cats water fountain, and it is necessary to rinse first for that application. I would suggest that it might transfer charcoal black on their paws and your floors, etc..

Our cats are 'inside' cats and hopefully the bed will not require a thorough washing when the time comes. It's not that old yet. The cats use it a lot and apparently love it. We really got it for a stray that was staying in our unheated garage and it was sort of an 'at the moment' purchase. It did the job and that stray is now in our house with the rest of them. Hopefully we will never have a stray horse come by here. I will say though, my wife mentioned washing the bed just the other day. It was not decided what to do when the time comes. I think spot cleaning will have to suffice.

I didn't use the product that way. I probably wouldn't simply due to how disgusting cat pee can be. Just the thought of covering it up with a spray is not an option for me.

Can I wash my pet with your soaps?Yes! Dr. Bronner's soaps are wonderful for washing pets, especially dogs. To see a great demonstration of how to wash your dog with our soaps, check out Lisa Bronner's blog post on the topic.For cats, you have to be a little more careful. Many essential oils can be toxic to cats, especially tea tree, lavender and peppermint oils. So for cats, as for babies, your best bet is to use one of our Unscented Baby-Mild varieties. https://www.drbronner.com/customer-service/faqs/
