What you definitely shouldn't do if your cat peed in your shoes: these methods don't work

Cat owners should be prepared for anything, including the fact that the animal may develop an irresistible desire to mark the owner’s (or any other) shoes.

When choosing an effective and affordable means for neutralizing the smell of urine, it is important not to make a mistake.

Today we will tell you about the compositions that, unfortunately, will not help solve the problem.

Chlorine

Products containing chlorine, firstly, can ruin shoes, and secondly, will make boots even more attractive to furry “pests”, so “Belina” and “Domestos” are not your options.

Ammonia

Ammonia is not suitable for the same reason: it can attract pets. This is explained by the fact that ammonia is a component of ammonia - it is also one of the components of cat urine.

The cat will think that there is a stranger on its territory and will make every effort to drown out his smell with his own.

Air freshener

The air freshener can only temporarily hide the unpleasant odor, but it cannot eliminate uric acid crystals. As a result, when in contact with water, sweat, etc., the shoes will emit a strong repulsive "aroma".

By the way, the same applies to various perfumes, colognes and deodorants.

Earlier we talked about why a dog chews on a leash during a walk.
