Re: cat friendly discinfectant


.We used it for a short while on the dog run but the smell is horrible and you have to wait till its almost dry.We found if it wasnt completly dry it stained the dogs feet.Cats are much more sensitive.
We stick to good old bleach which is definatly safe with cats

Re: cat friendly discinfectant


Must say, I don't know much about Jeyes. I buy loads from hyperdrug. I think they would go into liquidation if I stoppped shopping with them , well so my husband says We have bought Virkon from our equine vet before but it is so much cheaper from hyperdrug; always buy my wormers from them too

Re: cat friendly discinfectant


Yes you have to make sure it is dry after you have used Virkon but it it is a really effective disinfectant and I have never had a problem with it. I have even used it in the washing machine to wash the horses rugs and dogs bedding. You can dilute it to bath the horse in so it can't be all that bad!

Re: cat friendly discinfectant


have you seen that from Oct 05 we may have to go back to buying from vets due to some crazy rule about putting drugs in the post
