What’s worse than a cat who just urinated out of their litter box and onto the living room floor? Given just how hard it is to remove cat urine and it’s smell from pretty much anywhere else, the lovely absorbency of carpet makes the situation quite hopeless.
The first thing you should immediately do when your cat urinates where they’re not supposed to is to clean it up. The keyword here is “immediately.” The success rate of you removing the cat urine smell completely is related to other factors, such as a) the length of time the urine has been left to soak on your furniture, carpet, or floor and b) the attachment that your cat has developed for that particular spot. The second factor is due to the cat’s tendency to relieve themselves wherever they have urinated before.
