What can you do about your kitten's litter box if you clean it out every day and change it once a week but there is still an odor?

Answer 1

We have had EXCELLENT luck with a product called EVER CLEAN. We've got 5 cats in the house, and visitors find that hard to believe since they never smell any odor.

If a cat has missed the box, and urine has gotten on your floor, clean with a warm solution that is heavy on white vinegar. There also is a new product that has recently been introduced called 0 Odor...and that's what it provides. But the best way to control the odor is to prevent it in the first place, and that's where the EVER CLEAN comes in. We've tried ALL the current litters, and EVER CLEAN works best for us.

I used to have the same problem, try using scented cat litter and if that still doesent work just spray some air freshner around the room if it really pongs!

Baking Soda, and try different brands and types of litter. They are not all the same quality. Just experiment until you find a good one.

The food your feeding makes a difference too. I mean, what goes in must come out. I found that when I feed my cats inferior food the box gets much worse.

Also, I don't know what your cleaning routine is right now, but cat pee can kind of soak into a plastic litter box. It helps if when you change the litter box, you empty it completely, let some dish-washing detergent soak in there for a while and then set it out to dry in the sun.

Be sure the litter box is a real one and not just a plastic organizer or such because most litter boxes are treated, but it should also have a smooth shiny inner surface. Using a clumping litter is really best, and most have odor neutralizers in them. Of course you could use litter box liners, but most of the time they get slashed by the cat's claws. I clean mine about every week or so, and I have no odors come from it unless she has a poop; and it is cleaned out right away. Also wipe from just above the litter the the rim every day. That will help to keep odors away.

You should change it like twice a week because it will stink really bad no matter what you do

I use Feline Pine's clumping formula, Its the best smelling/best odor control litter I've used yet. Best clumping too and eco friendly to boot!

You also may want to try cleaning the area around where you keep the litter box because sometime the cat may miss the litter box or kick some of its "wastes" out.

And also try buying a new litter box or keeping it in the garage so that you can't smell the odor anymore.
