I was talking about how funny Saki was on another cat forum after I cleaned and bleached the litterbox earlier (dilluted bleach of course) and someone replied this:
So which is it?? I always hear about people using bleach and also Dawn for that matter!You should NEVER use bleach to clean a litter box! Urine turns to amonia, and amonia mixed with bleach is bad bad BAD! It it toxic and can cause axphixiation, lung damage, and brain damage in your cat and you! You should only use a mild detergent (but not Dawn) to clean a litterbox, and avoid any that contain lemon or orange.
