I live in a complex with lots of cats, dogs, and kids. I want to put something on the sidewalk to melt the ice and make it safer to walk on. Is there something else I can use that won't hurt the pads on dog's feet?

Nice of you to think of them, unfortunately you most likely will be the only one that will. Pet safe isn't cheep. Best of luck and thank you from the animals.

It may not melt the ice but many people use kitty litter to help keep from slipping.
