Hi: My name is Brett and I am a thirteen year old male Himalayan. I live with four females, three feline and one human. Needless to say a guy just has to put his paw down once in a while. That is why I established and adhere to a true and definite male hierarchy. I am the boss. I get first choice of everything including the food dishes and places to sleep. But let’s talk about the litter box.
Cat Odor
Since there are four of us using the litter box we have a very large one. My human lady does not like cat odor so keeps it clean but recently she did something strange. She used a cat odor remover. I did not know what that was but I trust her. When Mother Nature came to call I ran to the litter box and I noticed she laid a layer of litter down and then a layer of powder, which I assumed was what she called the cat odor remover, and then another layer of litter. I jumped into the box and wouldn’t you know? I could not find my spot. You know we cats are territorial even in the litter box. We have our own spots for everything and I could not find my spot in the litter box. Ignoring Mother Nature for a moment I jumped out of the box to see if it was still the same one. Yes, it was. What happened to my favorite spot? I jumped back in and looked again. Now, Mother Nature said “okay cat. It’s now or outside the box and then you’re in trouble.” I decided to make a new spot and then I remembered the cat odor remover. That stuff worked so well it removed my smell from way down deep. If my human lady uses this all of the time I will have to make a new favorite spot every time. Is that fair to an alpha cat? But then it is better than the smelly cat odor.
You may not believe it but smelly cat odor, even our own, annoys us cats too. It burns our noses as we smell around for our favorite spots and when we use the litter box. We just can’t say anything except in cat language. What I do when the box gets smelly and needs cleaning is meow loud and clear while sitting next to it. The message comes out that the box needs to be cleaned and the job is quickly done. I told you we had a hierarchy here.
I heard my human lady tell her friends about this cat odor remover stuff. She called it OdorZout. it sure does just that.
Oops, gotta go now. Two of my girls are fighting and I have to step in and stop it. An alpha cat’s job is never done. Will write to you all soon. In the meantime get some OdorZout and make your alpha cat happy.
