How do you wash food bowls?

[PotassiumPermanganate]

For those who hand wash their dishes rather than using a dishwasher, do you wash your cat's food bowls in the same dish as the rest of the washing up? Do you use the same cloth or scrubby thing? I wait til all the dishes are done and then wash out the food bowls separately with a sponge that is only for use with cat food bowls. But my husband just chucks it all in together, same dish, same cloth. Is he being disgusting? Or am I being too fussy?

Mine go in the dishwasher.

Bowls and mats soaked overnight in very hot water in the kitchen sink, no washing up bowl because we don’t use one as most things go in the dishwasher. Rinsed off in the morning with no need to scrub and dried with a bit of kitchen roll
