RE:cat urine: do the cat(s) go back later, after the area has been cleaned, and smell the area or do they totally ignore it like it was never there?

I know this product for me, removed the urine odor completely for me, but I bought a no no spray type (to discourage from going again) after I cleaned just to be sure they didn't go back. I know cats and dogs will go back to same spot because they smell their urine. I can't smell anything at all after using this, but their noses are stronger! But so far so good for me, cleaning with this and spraying a no pee spray once it dried.

I don't recall -- I got rid of it because the entry area was low so my cat just backed up to that and peed outside anyhow!

Yes, it does cut down on the urine smell as well. I've just sprinkled some and scooped it into the litter and shortly after the smell dissipated. Before that the urine smell was pretty strong and stifling. Not sure whether it makes a difference, but the litter our cats use is the classic clay litter and not the clumping kind.

I may just have a stupid cat...but yes they have returned. I might be fighting a deep history of carpet using but it is still the best odor eliminator I have found.

Hi, this cat litter does not track and absorbs urine very well. Like any cat litter, it works best when cleaned daily. Great stuff!

Leave it alone....this product uses enzymes that work afterward, leaving a smell for a day or two if its too badly saturated with urine, but the smell WILL go away after it finishes eating at the "mess" (literally). I have used Nature's Miracle on an apartment I was cleaning that had badly soaked carpets, and the day after, you could barely walk into the house, because the odor of the urine and an "alcohol smell" that is a byproduct of the enzymes doing their work, but after the second day, ALL of the smell was gone, and the carpets looked like new. This stuff works, but people need to know, this is ENZYME based, not chemical or soap based, so it takes TIME to do its job, but it WILL do it, and do it well. Think of enzymes as little critters that live off of urine, blood, and feces, and will eat and eat until they have nothing else to eat. After a couple of days, you can clean the carpets again to get rid of any remaining traces that may be left, but if you don't give this stuff time to do what it does, you are just wasting your money (like the guy that called in the "pros" afterward...all they did was soak up the enzymes that were already doing their job, then probably putting more on there along with some sort of chemical deodorizer that seals the urine into the carpet and padding so you couldn't smell it, which in return, will not allow enzymes or anything else from that point on to remove what urine they sealed in). So...use this stuff, then, LET IT SIT AND DO ITS JOB, even if its for a couple of days, it will work, DO NOT RINSE, after a few days, re-clean the carpet if you like, but don't do it BEFORE ITS DONE WORKING!! The added smell means its doing its job, not that it didn't.

No, not that I've noticed. Recommend taking your kitten to vet to be evaluated and urine checked. --CL (physician and cat lover)

I have two cats and replace the pellets when I feel they are "getting old". Sometimes I replace them more than once a month and sometimes not. I do tend to add pellets when they are getting low. I don't notice that they smell or retain odor but as I said, sometimes they seem to need changing.

Well I feel stupid because I never noticed the two different versions of this. I have been buying the pet urine one but will definitely get the cat one next time to see it if works better. My best guess (and this is from experience with both dog and cat pee) cat urine stinks up the house a lot worse than dog urine so possibly the cat urine product would be stronger and more effective on cat odors.

We used this product to get rid of cat urine odor left behind on a sofa cushion; although we absorbed the "accident" with a towel while it was still wet, before saturating the cushion with this product. We have also used it to launder items (blankets, etc.) that had cat urine on them. There does not appear to be any sticky residue that remains and the odor was completely eliminated. This product has been a true MIRACLE for us. :-) Good luck!

I've had to wipe the toilet seat from feces once but only because it hit the rim. I have three cats in my house that I've trained and all three of them point towards the toilet to use the bathroom. I suppose it depends on the cat. They are on the last stage. If you have any more questions feel free.

Agree with the other answers,funny the other day it occurred to me there was no !longer any odor from cat box in my apartment, something I've never experienced consitenly before this litter.

There is only the smell directly after they go. To me there is 90% less smell than with a regular cat box with the best. I suggest you buy the unscented solution. The solution that comes with the catgenie is quite strong. Its a clean smell but strong and it dissipates. My genie always cleans completely. I set mine to clean 10 minutes after the cat uses it which also will extend the solution uses.

I guess it depends on your cat. The idea is to deter further urinating, but it may not deter all cats. I think a lot depends on how soaked the area is as well. I'm only guessing that an area that is really soaked underneath (carpet pad, soil?) is harder to deter than a fresh one. If I were testing the idea, I'd spray the area and let it soak a bit to get rid of the urine odor and then perhaps rinse off the pea gravel to get rid of the Fizzion. Even if you can't smell it anymore, I think your cat could for a while anyway. In my atrium, occasionally a stray sprays one of the outside walls. I spray it down with Fizzion but ,eventually, it gets sprayed again.

Yes, after a while it does start to smell, I guess when the box can no longer absorb it. We have three cats and I think we change the 2 boxes every three to four months. This may sound like a lot, but cleaning these boxes is so much easier than the plastic boxes that it is worth it. They are sturdy so I use them alone. Just give them a try but don't throw out you old system until you are sure, but I love these boxes.

The washing solution has a fresh scent. I have very rarely noticed any left over feces or a smell once it starts cleaning. If your cat has diarrhea that might pose a different problem. However normal bowel movements are removed easily. I have mine set to cat activation and it works wonderfully.
