The neatest thing for cat owners that hate to clean cat litter up is an automatic litter box called the CatGenie. It eliminates the need to buy cat litter because it uses CatGenie washable granules and CatGenie Sanisolution to wash and flush away cat poop. The granules replace the regular litter and the sanitizing solution washes them and the unit.

Sometimes the solution is called CatGenie cartridges because the solution is in a replaceable cartridge. Even though you do need to replace the cartridges about every 2 months it is still cheaper than buying cat litter and less work too.

Cat Urine Removers

Cat spraying is defined as a cat urinating on a vertical surface like a doorway or furniture leg as opposed to peeing on a flat surface like the floor.

Note that female cats do sometimes spray on a flat surface. Also watch out for a cat scratching furniture.

Neutered cats of both sexes can spray but it is the un-neutered cat that sprays more often. Sometimes neutering will stop the spraying but this does not always work and you should always discuss the pros and cons of neutering with your Vet.

One reason a cat sprays is due to their territorial nature and they will often mark their little piece of the world by leaving behind some urine. Another reason is due to anxiety, the cat feels stressed or threatened.
