Cleaning
Cat Urine
To say cleaning cat urine is not much fun is like saying that the
Arctic Ocean is a bit chilly. As the owner of three cats, including a
young one which has yet to learn to control its bladder and an old one
which has forgotten how, I'll tell you: cleaning cat urine is the pits.
It's hands down the worst part of my day to clean cat urine, unless I
am having a terribly bad day, with the boss yelling me, a fight with my
girlfriend, and perhaps a stabbing or car crash on the way home.
Otherwise, what I really dread is the rancid smell with which my cats
have inevitably filled my house by the time I arrive in the evening.
There are some things that will make cleaning cat urine a bit more
bearable, but there is nothing that will make it fun. I like to use
Oxiclean, or some comparable product, since I am at the disadvantage of
having carpets. In my previous apartment, cleaning cat urine was easy,
because all I'd have to do was to get a mop and some lysol. You see,
the floors were all easy to clean tile, so there was nothing to
cleaning cat urine up neat as you please.
Despite the joys of cleaning cat urine, I still love my cats a lot,
though, and make no mistake about that. My little one, Furrball, is the
cutest little snug gums which you ever laid your eyes on. He's spindly
and playful, stumbling around joyously battling at shoelaces of
sniffing around at any insects that get into the apartment.
And he is good at getting into things himself, that Furrball. Why, one
time I found him in my clothes drawer and my clothes drawer was closed!
To this day, I can't figure out how he could have gotten in to there,
never the less, I was putting on my socks one morning and there he was,
as plain as the day is long. I'll tell you, there's no end to the
mischief that these cats will make. Even the old one, Tiger, still
gives me a run for my money sometimes, hiding under the sofa and then
sneaking out to rub against my feet at the one moment when it will
startle me – right when I'm putting on my slippers in the
morning. If I didn't love them so much, these cats would drive me
crazy.
