Cleaning Soiled Areas
Your cat will be attracted back to any spot that he has used outside of his box,
simply because the area smells like urine or feces. Therefore, it is important to thoroughly
clean all soiled areas using an enzymatic cleaner that is specifically formulated to
eliminate pet odors.
If the soiled area is a carpet or upholstery, steam cleaning after using an
enzymatic cleaner helps to remove all residual odors. Although normal household cleaning
solutions may impart a fresh scent to the area, these products mask but do not completely
eliminate odors. Although the spot may smell clean to you, your cat’s keen sense of smell
will lead to continue to use the spot as an elimination area.
