Is it obligatory to search for the impurity of cats and clean it, or does their saliva purify it, even if a lump of feces remains?

Cats do not need to be cleaned. However, one must be careful of their excrement and purify with clean water whatever it touches, as it is impure. One must feed them sufficiently or let them eat from the vermin of the earth.
