HOW TO CLEAN UP CAT URINE!

You've got to clean up cat urine. Your Dearly loved cat has had a little accident and we both know that it comes with BIG SMELLS!

As any cat owner will tell you, cat urine has a particularly intolerable - not to mention RANK - odor. As well as that rank odor cat urine will stain carpet and hardwood flooring alike.

For whatever reason your cat has deceided to stop using there litter box, your going to be able to clean up the mess!

STEPS!! TO CLEAN UP CAT URINE. 




FOR HARDWOOD FLOORS.

Cat urine smells foul as it absorbs into your hardwood floor. Worse still, it can stain and rot your floor if ignored.
Absorbent cloths. Blot the urine-soaked area using your dry cloth. A white cloth works fine (or many paper towels if you don't have a cloth), Try cloth diapers they absorb much better.
Wipe away residue. Wipe the spot gently with a warm, damp cloth, and then blot the wood dry.

Household cleaners. You can then apply one of several household agents to the urine stain.
Many people swear by hydrogen peroxide to remove cat urine. If your peroxide is diluted to about 3%, you can spray it over the cat urine to remove both stain and odor. Let the peroxide sit for about five minutes before blotting.
For an even stronger cleanser, add a couple squirts of hand soap and a sprinkle of baking soda to this spray. Shake it up, and watch it work.

Diluted white vinegar can help you remove your cat urine as well. It's best to dilute the vinegar to about 25-30%. Spray the warm solution onto the cat urine and then, after a couple minutes, blot once more with the cloth.
Baking soda alone has been known to get rid of superficial odor-causing urine, but it won't help you remove urine stains in the wood.



FOR CARPET CLEANUP AND STAINS

For carpets. Cat urine on carpet is more than a nuisance it can penetrate through the fibers and into the padding, causing mold to go along with that awful smell.

It's easier to clean wet urine. The quicker you can respond to the urine, the easier your job will be. But if you are trying to clean up and deodorize a dried-up urine stain, your task will be simpler if you dampen the stain with some warm water before proceeding.

Absorbent cloths. Blot the affected area as described in the hardwood section above. If you blot with pressure for about 30 seconds, and the cloth is dry, then you can continue to the next step.

Store-bought cleaning agents. Though you can try the aforementioned household cleaners first, your best bet is a heavy-duty store-bought cleaner designed specifically to target the bacteria and enzymes of cat urine accidents (you can find these at your pet store).

After blotting with the cloth and applying pressure to remove as much of the liquid urine as possible, apply one of these urine cleaners, following the instructions on the package.

Blot again! After letting it sit, blot the cleanser up using a fresh cloth until it seems dry. Finally, using a warm, damp cloth, apply a little pressure once more before blotting one last time with a dry cloth (to get any residue of cleanser out of there).

You may have to repeat the cleansing step a couple times.
