Title: Milton tablets OK for cats?
Post by: Tiggy's Mum on November 01, 2008, 22:38:50 PM
The trays of my cat feeder have become a bit discoloured so I bought some Milton sterilising tablets to soak them in, I was sure I'd read that other people use them and they are safe for cats.  Having looked back at the threads it seems people were talking about Milton fluid.  Does anyone know if the tablets are safe to use with cats? Hope so otherwise I'll have to throw the feeder dishes away  :shy:

I've used them for years without any problems  :) I always rinse the bowls with cooled boiled water though - my cat's won't drink out the bowl if they can smell it.

I don't use the tablets but use the fluid. I dilute it to clean Lexy's tray, the floor around where she eats etc. Use it on counter tops etc. I don't know if the tabs smell stronger than the fluid but I like the smell and Lexy doesn't seem bothered by it.
