Cleaning Cat Urine From Stone Floor

If your pet has an accident on your stone floors contain it and clean it up quickly.

Cleaning cat urine from stone floor.

A puddle of urine in the middle of your new laminate floor may emphasize his disdain for your litter box cleaning skills. A cat has a way of stalking past you and his litter box when he s decided that it has offended his delicate sensibilities. Care for your floors properly by not using any corrosive or acidic cleaning products on the stone as this will only make the problem worse. Mopping your floor at least once a week and removing the grease oils and dirt will also go a long way into maintaining your floor.

Dog or cat urine has a way of seeping in and working its way down into concrete materials it s own. If your cat is spraying urine against a wall or on hardwood floors clean the surfaces completely with a 75 25 spray of vinegar and water. When your pampered pet has an accident on the floor in your house you may think nothing of grabbing paper towels or a wet rag and wiping it up. Don t use vinegar on marble or stone floors and it will etch the floor and ruin the finish.

Once the stain has been allowed to set a deep cleaning of the surface is needed. Dust is like sand paper and will wear down your sealer and stone at a fast pace. Use a terrycloth or paper towels to blot up the urine and keep it from being absorbed into the natural stone. Vinegar and water will work well on many surface floors including ceramic tile and linoleum.
