1How To Get Rid of Cat Pee
2Urine spraying is more than just marking
- Before you learn how to stop this behavior, you
must understand what it is and why cats do it. - Urine marking has many purposes, and to be honest
it is too complex to understand completely.
However, in order to stop this behavior here is
the minimum you should know about urine marking
by cats - ViaHow to stop a cat from spraying urine in the

3Cat Spraying
- Urine marking is communication. It lets a cat
send information by spraying urine, and gather
information back by smelling the markings of
other cats. - Urine marking does not mark borders. Cats,
especially male cats, have large territories that
usually overlap, so there are no actual borders
to protect. Marking with urine lets all cats be
aware of each other without a visual encounter. - The less secure the cat feels the more he or she
will spray. Not because marked things are safer,
but because the information gathered through
spraying makes the territory safer. - Cats spray over the markings of other cats. Its
not to show supremacy or claim possession. A
sprayer actually expects other cats to spray
over. It helps to know if other cats visit there. - Cats refresh their older spots. Basically this
and the previous point mean that as long as the
corner smells like urine, a cat will want to
re-mark it. - Urine marking is never for revenge. If your cat
sprays upon your belongings after scolding,
believe it or not your cat thinks this may
improve your relationship.
4 Neuter your cat to stop urine marking
- There are many reasons why cats spray, but the
two primary ones are to find a sexual partner and
secure their territory. While helping a cat to
feel secure on his turf is a complex process (you
will read more below), you can easily stop your
cats need to find a mate through surgery. - Depending on many things, a cat may stop
spraying - Immediately after neutering. Happens in the vast
majority of cases. - Within a few weeks, up to a month after
neutering. - Only when additional steps are taken (see more
below). - So for most of you, neutering your cat will be
the only action necessary to stop spraying. - Via How to stop a cat from spraying urine in the

5Find whats causing your cat to spray urine
- If your cat did not stop spraying after
neutering, you either need to wait a little
longer, or sexual advertising was not the only
reason your cat sprays and you need to find out
what the reason is. - Here we identify several possible causes of urine
marking by cats. - Other cats. Since urine marking is a form of
communication between cats, most likely it is
caused by other cats, even if you have a single
indoor cat. - Multiple cats in the same household. Common
problems Cats are not getting along a cats
territory or access to resources is threatened a
cat is bullied by another cat or the hierarchy
in a multi-cat household is not settled. Possible
solutions Add more litter boxes in several
locations, more water and food bowls, and more
napping locations. It is extremely important to
add climbing opportunities that have an exit in
order to avoid dead ends where a cat can trap
another cat. See here for more information about
environment enrichment for indoor cats. A great
help for multiple-cat owners is the book Cat vs
Cat by Pam Johnson-Bennett. - Via How to stop a cat from spraying urine in the

6Conflict With Owner
- is a common cause of urine spraying because of
insecurity about the environment. Possible
solutions Do not punish or yell at your cat for
urine marking or other behavior problems.
Disallow as few things as possible. Increase the
time spent with your cat (playing, petting,
talking, brushing and other), and add climbing
opportunities. - Changes are the most common source of stress in
cats, and stress is the most common reason why
neutered cats spray urine. - Via How to stop a cat from spraying urine in the

7Cat Marking
- Cats mark their older spots to, lets say, update
them, and cats spray over markings of other cats
to, lets say, reply. If the spot smells
previously marked, its a good reason to add to
it. - Via How to stop a cat from spraying urine in the

8What Causes Cat Urine to Smell?
- Cat owners all know that distinctive urine cat
odor. It is most intense with the urine of intact
males and much less in neutered males and
unaltered and altered females. The chemical
responsible for this odor is appropriately called
felinine. Felinine is a sulfur-containing amino
acid resulting from normal biological function in
the feline body that is excreted in the urine.
Sulfur is extremely odiferous and is responsible
for the smell created by felinine in the urine.
Sulfur is also the mineral that is responsible
for the odor experienced with flatulence (i.e.,
farting). - How to stop a cat from spraying urine in the

9How To Get Rid of Cat Pee
- Before we go into that lets discuss what you
shouldnt do to try to eliminate cat urine
odors from your home. Never use any cleaning
products that contain ammonia, as this will only
make the matters worse. Cat urine is ammonia
based so using this product to come behind and
clean up after your cat will only entice them to
spray this area in the future. Dont use heavily
scented or fragranced products as these will only
hide and mask the odors allowing them to return
later and in some case or more stronger and
noxious odor. Also many of these perfume based
products pose some dangers to your pets , so it
is best to read what you are getting prior to
using it. - Enzymatic treatments are commonly used to clean
pet urine but the truth is the products take a
couple of days to begin to work . Here is
an excerpt from a popular blog post from a
professional carpet cleaning company who
specialize in urine and pet odor removal.
10Downsides to enzymes
- When customers buy an enzyme product from the
store they will find the directions on the back.
These directions will say to apply their product
liberally to the affected area. It will then say
to blot dry. They know it is going to work
because you are literally pouring chemical into
the carpet and never getting it all out.
The fragrances in the chemical combined with the
enzyme will totally eliminate the issue. This is
great in all but the customer is then left with a
spot so high on the PH scale it will attract
dirt. Even if the customer cleans the area every
time it gets dirty the spot will reappear. This
is due to the chemical in the pad. The spot will
wick up to the surface every time. If a customer
is going to use this product there must be a
rinse cycle done to the area until all the
enzymes are removed. Using a shop vac and warm
water is the best method for rinsing the area. - Via http//ntsblog.com/when-do-enzymes-work-for-
