Cats do mysterious things. He likely was just behaving in a curious manner or was attracted by whatever scent the dish soap is. I would recommend monitoring him for any upset stomach symptoms such as: excessive vomiting, diarrhea or decreased appetite. If he does happen to get ill its best to have Reggie seen by your vet for further care. I hope that your pet Reggie does well moving forward. Best wishes and take care.
