Mechanical keyboards are a great addition to any desk. Due to their sturdy nature, they will probably last more than a few years too. Unfortunately, their long shelf life means that they can get very dirty or greasy. There are several ways you can clean your mechanical keyboard safely, and in this guide I show you the step-by-step process to do this. All you need is some dish detergent, warm water, some Q-tips, and a few rags. If you’ve used a vacuum, alcohol, or water to clean keyboard dirt, dust and grime off, you may already be familiar with the steps to safely clean mechanical keyboard.

Have you tried not having a cat?
Honestly for switching to the keyboard part I would recommend to use a brush with some rubbing alcohol on it. A soft brush with some high level rubbing alcohol can work wonders are almost all electronics. And it really pisses me off for you to advice cleaning electronics with water.
The kitty supervisor was just checking to make sure you did it right. ๐
