    If it's just dry stuff like, crumbs & cat hair... you could just 
pop the keys off and use a vacuum cleaner, with a small dry paint 
brush to dislodge stuff that may be a little sticky.

    No sarcasm intended. But, this very subject went around on the 
vintage.macs list a couple of weeks ago. And, yes. A few folks did 
put their keyboards, even whole computers in the dishwasher with good 
success... Use low temperature, air dry settings & not a whole lot of 
detergent. In fact, it may be good to run it a second time with no 
detergent at all, just to make sure there's no residue left behind.

Iechyd Da,
