If your cat has urinated or marked in a particular area of your home, it is important to clean the area very thoroughly or she may return there again.

To prevent this behavior from happening again, keep your pet away from the area, such as by placing furniture there.

Clean the contaminated area with an enzyme-containing detergent, then rinse thoroughly.

After this, prepare a weak solution of white vinegar and water and spray it on the surface.

Wipe the surface with rubbing alcohol and let it dry.

Important: Before you start cleaning, check the resistance of your floor covering to the products you will be using.

Another important point: do not use cleaning products that contain ammonia, as urine also contains ammonia and the animal may want to mark the area again.

And finally, under any circumstances, it is very important to never raise your voice at your pet or punish him.

Punishment will only increase your cat's stress - instead, show your cat that you still love her.

Earlier we talked about why cats react so strongly to an “evil” hand.
