How to Remove Cat Spray Odor

Feline spraying refers to a cat lifting its tail to spray a mist of urine onto an object. Some cats do it when they enter maturity as a way of marking a spot or leaving their scent. Other reasons for spraying include stress and a means for communicating with other cats. Feline spraying can leave a strong odor behind, so it's important to deodorize all areas that are sprayed.
