[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],A hand sanitizer is not a disinfectant. Disinfectants kill microorganisms on surfaces and instruments. They are not safe for use on human skin. (Ex. bleach) Antiseptics are used to prevent sepsis, the presence of the microorganisms, or their products in the bloodstream. They inhibit the growth of the microorganisms, but do not necessarily kill them. They are safe for use on human skin. (ex. ethyl alcohol) Hand sanitizers are used for decontamination when hand washing is not available . They are most commonly made of ethyl alcohol, an antiseptic.

While we will not tell owners how to handle their animal or how to show affection, we must protect the general population. Before this owner can touch another animal or leave the shelter s/he should be asked to wash/disinfect her/his hands.
