Elwood update

Nothing new has been peed on for a week.

We put a water dish under the bed (where he hides most of the time) and a spare litterbox behind my desk (which has become extremely popular with /all/ the cats, damn their eyes. I can't believe how much waste these cats put out daily.)

He's been coming out a lot more and seems to be a little friskier, so I think the pain he was probably in is passing somewhat. I think it's still there, he seems pretty on edge still, but not as bad. We must keep making sure he always has extra water and the litterbox handy.

I must vacuum twice daily. Sigh. =)

It could be worse. I still haven't figured out how to get that pee smell out of the sofa cushion. The carpets seem to be coming clean. But the Nature's Miracle stuff doesn't seem to be very effective on that cushion. Maybe I need to be more liberal with it.

I think the sleeping bags are toast.

Did you try Febreeze?

Febreeze so isn't strong enough to deal with cat pee.

Merlin, IIRC, Nature's Miracle is definitely a "liberal application" product.

The laundry product works very well, the spray-on not so much. I'd suggest laundering the sleeping bags in a front loading washer at a laundromat, with generous amounts of Febreeze.
