Why does the cat pee outside the tray?
Despite the fact that you have a cat-litter tray, it can happen that the cat pees outside the tray. That can have a number of reasons.
- Cat-litter tray is not clean
The cat-litter tray is not clean enough. Cats are really clean animals and if the cat-litter tray is too dirty for their liking, they will go somewhere else. - Cat is ill
The cat may have a disease. FLUTD is a common disease in cats and produces bladder stones or bladder infections, meaning the cat will have to pee at the most unexpected moments. - Stress
The cat may experience stress which causes upset, and the cat may start to pee in different places. - Spraying
Male cats also display spraying behaviour. If a cat has not been castrated or sterilised, it may display territorial behaviour and start spraying on vertical surfaces in particular. Tom cats display that type of behaviour.

Other products: which ones yes and which ones no?
You can try to remove the smell of cat urine with soda. Did you know it is better not to use vinegar or bleach - even though that seems counterintuitive? Further on, we explain the reason.
1. Cleaning soda
Some blogs say you can use a cleaning soda to remove cat urine from the carpet, rugs or mattresses, as this neutralises odours. Sprinkle some of this soda on the stain, leave it for a day, and then vacuum it up with a vacuum cleaner.
2. No not use vinegar, bleach, or chlorine
We also advise against chlorine because it is toxic and, like vinegar and bleach, it actually encourages the cat to pee where you just used it.
3. Do not use products that mask the smells
Cats use their odour to mark their territory. If they experience a new smell, this will invite them to urinate more until their own smell is stronger than the one of your product.

Tips for preventing the smell of cat pee
Removal is one thing. Ideally you prevent the cat from using your settee, carpet, or clothes as a cat-litter tray. Cats hate the smell of menthol. You can spread menthol cream on or near the place in question. The cats will be less likely to urinate in that spot. Be careful with certain fabrics and materials as menthol can cause stains!
