Do cats need to be disinfected?

Cats need to be sterilised. Cat litter, food and utensils should be washed and disinfected regularly to prevent the growth of micro-organisms and the growth of external parasites. The home environment should also be disinfected regularly. However, it is important to note that cats should be isolated when disinfecting litters, sofas and other furniture, and that a secondary wipe of the disinfected items should also be carried out to avoid cats licking them and causing discomfort or poisoning.
