We love our adorable cats, but spraying in the house? Not so much! Here’s how to handle it if your cat decides to mark its territory indoors.
How can I find the sprayed spots?
Use a UV light
A UV light can help you spot exactly where your cat has sprayed. Cat urine stains will show up under UV light, making it easy to target specific areas.
No UV light? Try your nose!
If you don’t have a UV light, you may have to rely on your sense of smell to locate the spots. Once you find them, it’s time to clean up.
How do I clean up cat spray?
Make a cleaning solution by mixing some laundry detergent (like Biotex) with baking soda or a stain remover. Use a sponge to scrub the affected area thoroughly. You might need to repeat this process a few times if the smell persists. Finally, rinse with lukewarm water and a bit of vinegar to neutralize any remaining odors.
With these simple steps, you’ll be able to tackle the smell and keep your home fresh!
