Colloidal silver and pets, in short
Colloidal silver is a suspension of tiny silver particles in purified water. Ours is sold for external use only. It is not a veterinary medicine, and we make no claims that it cleans, freshens or does anything for your dog or cat. For your pet’s health, ask a vet.
This guide covers colloidal silver and pets: what it is, why we make no claims for dogs and cats, when to ask a vet, and how to store it safely at home.
Plenty of pet owners ask us about colloidal silver, so here are plain answers – with no claims about what it does for animals.
Here are the questions people ask most. For the full picture, see our complete UK guide to colloidal silver.

Can you use colloidal silver around dogs and cats?
Our colloidal silver is sold for external use only. It is not a veterinary medicine, and we make no claims about using it on or around pets.
If you are thinking about any product for your dog or cat, a qualified vet is the right person to ask.
Keep every bottle out of reach of pets and children.
Does colloidal silver clean or freshen things around pets?
We do not claim that it does. We do not sell colloidal silver as a cleaner, disinfectant or freshener for pets, their bedding, bowls or toys.
For bowls, toys and bedding, ordinary washing and products made for that job are the sensible choice.
Is colloidal silver safe for pets?
We make no safety or health claims for colloidal silver and animals.
Pets lick their fur and paws, so anything put on them may be swallowed – and our colloidal silver is not for swallowing.
For anything to do with your pet’s health, a qualified vet is always the right person to ask.
Should you use colloidal silver internally for pets?
We make no recommendation for internal use – our colloidal silver is sold for external use only.
For any question about your pet’s health, a qualified vet is always the right person to ask.
This guide makes no recommendation for any use on or around pets.
How should you store colloidal silver?
Keep it in dark glass, in a cool, dark cupboard, tightly capped and out of direct sunlight.
Good storage keeps it stable for longer. For the detail, see our guide to storing colloidal silver.
Avoid plastic bottles and warm, bright spots such as windowsills.
