Will I be able to get the cat urine smell out?

How to get rid of the smell of cat urine.?

  • I live in the basement of my home and my two cats litterbox is just outside of my room. The smell of cat urine and poop flows throughout the entire level no matter where I move the box. Any suggestions on how to get rid of the odor?

  • Answer:

    Clean the boxes more frequently (I hate doing it myself!), use a litter made for multiple cats, and use an enzyme cleaner for any accidents that are left on the floor.

I would recommend cleaning the boxes in the morning and evening. I have two cats and I have two litter boxes and I use Scoop away multi cat with ammonia shield and is scented. I believe the cheaper litter doesn't always work and I also like the litter that clumps. You can also sprinkle baking soda in the litter to help with the odor. I would also recommend cleaning the litter box at least 4-6 with dish detergent and a good scrubbing, Cats are very finicky about their litter boxes.

I think you should buy better litter.

Something called natures miracle works really well for that. We use it to get rid of the smell when our dogs have accidents. Good luck!=) A deodorizing cat litter might be a good cjoice too.

Pet urine consists of mainly three parts. Urea; makes the urine sticky and allows the other two parts to stick around. Urochrome gives the urine its ugly yellow color that stains carpets, furniture, the wall and anything the cat sprays or urinates on. The third main part of the urine is Uric Acid. Uric acid in the urine consists of salts and crystals that give off the extremely pungent odor. These odors attach to minute solids floating in the air, most are invisible the heavier ones you can see floating in the air when the sunlight comes through the window in just the right angle. Each particle has a positive electrical charge because it is missing an electron. This enables it to drift as it is drawn in one direction and then another by electrical charges imbedding in carpets, drapes and walls. Carpet and furniture are a reservoir for pet allergens, and the allergens can remain in them for four to six weeks. An ozone generator will remove the odors by seeking out the source and destroying it, aerosol sprays and candles only replace the odor with a more pleasant odor they do not remove the odor only mask it.

If you smell urine and poop its really time to clean your litter box. Clean it twice daily and change the litter if it smells. Use backing soda that neutralizes the smell a bit. Other products might smell too much and lead to the cat not using the litter box as cats have sensitive noses. Keeping the litter box clean is the best odor prevention.
