Domestic cats that have not undergone surgery begin to experience well-known exacerbations in the spring.

If a pet is not allowed outside, it has no choice but to release all its energy in its place of residence, leaving marks on furniture, curtains, and carpets.

As a result, the textiles themselves, the house, and at the same time the owners’ clothes begin to smell unpleasantly of cats.

Let's try to figure out whether it is possible to remove this intoxicating smell, well known to all cat lovers.

Not all store-bought products cope with this task immediately and seriously.

Even before industrialists tried to solve the problem, people invented a reliable remedy based on 3 simple components.

How to proceed

If you find a fresh stain on the carpet, immediately sprinkle it with baking soda and leave for half an hour.

The absorbed stain must first be moistened with water and then sprinkled with soda.

Then generously pour hydrogen peroxide over the stained area.

There is no need to rub or clean anything – just wait until the chemical reaction is complete.

After 2-3 hours, you can clean the carpet and collect the remaining soda.

If the smell still lingers, you can wipe the area with table vinegar mixed with water in a 1:2 ratio.
