what exactly happens to the cat urine if it's not 'eaten' by this product?

The bacteria that produces the odor in the urine is destroyed by the Fizzion if the Fizzion makes contact with the urine. If the Fizzion does not connect with the urine, the stench just gets stronger as it ages.

I've never had a problem with this product not doing it's job. The issue with carpets is you have to saturate the carpet pad underneath. I use one of those turkey basting/injector syringe with large bore needle at cooking stores to inject or get to the carpet pad underneath. It works nicely to ensure the pad gets the Fizzion as well as the actual carpet. I also use a wet dry vac once I saturate the carpet and then blot to clean. If it's too wet I use the wet dry vac to duck the excess moisture or solution and urine. I put a towel over it and let it air dry after that. I use a black light to ensure the urine is gone.

It was smelling really bad from urine after one days use. I put a thin layer of kitty litter under the grass and now there is no smell for weeks, but my dogs don't use it all the time, they go outside on the grass during the day.

Sorry not cats but I ordered it for one of my dogs who has a special diet for gets calcium oxalate stones and has a homemade diet, I only add it every other day to his food but haven't had any problems with it and it lasts a long time. It smells fishy when you first add it but the smell goes away shortly after. I don't know why your cat may need it but i have to check my dogs ph level everyday and it seems to help a bit

I live with a herd of cats - I do rescue and the ones that tend to pee on things are the ones that nobody wants of course .... I've found with things like sleeping bags and such, just saturate with zero odor and leave sit for 24 hours. then run the bag thru the wash.

Yes, it worked on cat urine. I don't know about human urine but I think it will. Urine is protein and it works on animals and their urine is worse than humans. Hope this helps.

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.

We did use other products before but nothing worked. I did have to use this new product several times in order to eliminate the cat urine smell. I sprayed the area left for an hour and then scrubbed and dried. I notice that our cat doesn't go in that area anymore.

Actually the beauty of the system are the pre=packed trays which are sold with the system and as replacements. Honestly, even though the base of the tray is a laminated chip board paper, i wouldn't keep it around for use with another litter. Eventually the urine will permeate the paper tray.In this case: Use as directed is a good path to follow.

Not sure. My cats would not eat this stuff and such bad reviews about it causing urinary problems frightened me.

Water or food would be fine, I used a medicine dropper a put it directly in my cats mouth.

I think so. I have used cat products for my dog before. As long as they have enzymes in them, I think they break down all urine.

It's not that easy to clean because of the texture. Easiest way I found is to take it outside and spray it off with a garden hose and to use some kind of neutralizing agent (Nature's Miracle or something like that) to neutralize the urine so that the cats don't keep just urinating on the mat instead of going into the litter box.

Our cats would probably eat around the powder if given the choice. We mix it into the wet food. As a thought you could try getting a squirt bottle and give the wet food one spray and then sprinkle the powder on it would stick to the dry food that way. Just don't over do it with the squirt bottle or it will end up all mushy.

No. A man peeing standing up will produce far more splatter than our cats do. They way they squat, everything is directed downward. I note zero residue on the toilet seat itself as a result of the cats using it. During training, yes, our white adapter regularly got urine on it if the cats peed at the edge of the insert.

Thankfully I don't know yet. We rescued a male cat that started urinating on our bed. The three times it happened it did not soak down past the blankets.

Unfortunately no, but ive heard that putting dog urine (nasty i know) would help by putting it around the border of your yard. This product helps with when a cat urinates and you need to clean it up and get rid of the smell but it is good to put around if that stray cat was there because itll erase its "territory"

Yes, the other side of the box says "formulated for your cat...". Please don't eat it yourself.
