Luckily, I have an article on cleaning urine stains that has been through my own rigorous testing because even as a veterinarian, I've been there too I do want to add one thing though; some cats have “accidents” because of an underlying medical condition. It is always important to discuss with your veterinarian any inappropriate elimination issues.

Well, it's not as big of a pillow as I imagined, but it's even more fun than I thought. What kitty doesn't love to bunny kick, chew and toss a catnip toy around?! … … … … CAT-MAN-DOO BONITO FISH FLAKES: I am a big fan of treats and these Bonito Fish Flakes get two paws up! The fishy scent catches my nose and the taste—I can't get enough! I could eat these flakes all day, of course the humans won't allow this so I'll have to stick with being rewarded for good behavior.
