Cat Urine Smell

<< When Your Cat Won't Use the Box   When Cats Urinate Outside of the Litter Box >>

Cleanliness is certainly a virtue and the dozens upon many more dozens of cat urine cleaning products and product systems available today in every pet store and supermarket, make the selection process extremely confusing and time consuming.

This article does not intend to advertise or promote any cat urine cleaning products, but it does intend to enlighten you about the various natures of these products, their differences and similarities, at least according to their own allegations.

Keep in mind that the final and most important step in the selection of cat urine cleaning products is now and will always be left up to your own discretion. You are the one that will choose, that will pay, and will ultimately be the one using these products that you have selected. So, it behooves you to get informed as much as possible.

Without actually naming them, below are the groups of various cat urine cleaning products available to you. Please note that the first product group is not a cleaning product at all but rather deterrent, preventive if you will:

1. A few products, surprisingly not very many, emit non-toxic scents only apparent to your cat and these scents repel and deter them from urinating in the areas they are present. These products are packaged in aerosol bottles for localized applications, as well as in plug-ins that radiate the same repelling scents through entire rooms.

2. A generous selection of products are bacterial cleaners. These bacterial products actually breakdown the urine into simpler compounds and these compounds are then substantially easier to lift off and eliminate.

3. Most products claim to remove all components of urine stains but only a handful of them guarantee the removal of uric salt crystals. These crystals retain the markings of your cat’s urine and if not completely gotten rid of, they serve as open invitations for your cat to repeat his mischief as often as he pleases.

4. Many cat urine cleaning products use fragrances and perfumes to temporarily please your senses. Keep in mind, however, that the operative word here is “temporarily”. The odors will return sooner than you might expect.

5. Several of the cleaning products claim to complete the job they are intended for in one quick step, while others admit to multiple measures. A job well done is not necessarily a job done quickly and visa versa.

6. Most products proclaim non-toxicity yet a few make no mention of that important issue, so be aware.

7. A few select cleaning products claim to contain microscopic “sponges” that are filled with cat stain and odor removal solutions. You simply apply the product and they do the sponging up for you.

8. And finally, be aware that cat urine cleaning products come in liquid, spray and power formats – select as appropriate to your own particular needs.

In conclusion, with so much diversity and so many options, you most obviously have your work cut out for you. You’ll need perseverance, patience and the best of luck!
