How to Clean a Cat Kennel

A clean kennel is not only important for your cat's comfort, but also her health. Just like you wash you sheets, or clean the floors, you should clean your cat's kennel on a regular basis. Vinegar is a natural disinfectant that cuts through bacteria, while still being safe for your cat. If you cat soils himself in the kennel, vinegar will also work. Clean the carrier until no trace of the smell is left.
