Dear TLC Carpet Care,
Our cat has a tendency to pee on a certain area of the carpet where another animal has last marked. Is there any thing you can do for us?
At TLC Carpet Care we understand more about cat behavior than any other carpet cleaning company. You name a strange cat behavior and we have seen it.
Female cats tend to be the worst offenders for marking and bad habits. Vets will tell you less than 10% of spayed female cats mark indoors. Outside, it is a way for a cat to attract a mate. Inside, it is generally a behavioral problem caused by bad habits.
I’m assuming your cat is spayed, if not this step will help, but it needs to be done early in life, cause once a bad habit is happening it can be very hard to reverse.
One thing that will definitely help is hiring the services of a professional carpet cleaning company like TLC Carpet Care in Castle Rock Co. TLC Carpet Care will clean the area with en enzymatic cleaner that will remove all the ammonia that the cart keeps coming back to.
Try moving her food and water bowls near the area of the spraying. Sometimes this will discourage the cat as your cat want there food and water in a clean environment.
If none of that works, you may want to take your cat to the vet for more professional advice on drug therapy. Some vets may prescribed a mild drug for your cat, after awhile you may be able to get the cat to stop marking that territory.
Good luck, with correcting your cats bad habits.
