prevention for cats who pee on furniture

It's a deterrent by taste so that animals will not put their mouths on things. You sound like you were looking for a repellent to keep animals away from items. Comfort zone pheromone plug in and sprays helped me in a multi-cat household where peeing became an issue. Also, you must clean the areas thoroughly with an enzymatic cleaner which will also in its own way deter to some level, keep the cats away from areas they re-mark consistently, and provide multiple, clean litter boxes for them to use. Sometimes it's a territorial issue, sometimes they just like the texture of certain things, and if they're seeking out only soft areas, they may have pain issues (joints, paws, etc) or a UTI.

Spray weekly until the animal ceases to come to the couch. Be sure to clean the urinated spot first with a good cleaner and deodorizer.

Well every cat is different, but I'd say the transition should be gradual. Definitely pour some of his old litter with some feces in there so he can learn to associate the smell with bathroom. Keeping his old box out for a bit of time is a good idea too, at least until you see that he willingly (and often) uses the Clevercat box.

You are quite welcome. One other possibility that I forgot to note(apologies if you already are aware, not intended as an insult to your intelligence) is that cats who get urinary tract infections will repeatedly urinate outside the litter box. If that is what's happening, the vet can give clavimox antibiotic to treat it. Recurring UTIs may be caused by urinary stones, and a special diet(Royal Canin feline S/O) will treat that stone issue. If kidney dysfunction(usually cat is>=10 years old) is the issue, the food(dry or canned) Hill's k/d and plenty of water access should help. That's likely more than you ever needed to know.

Depends on how big your dog is. I got several to keep 2 cats off the furniture. Works very well. I also put 2 together to make a double-wide barrier to prevent the cats from entering the dining room. That also worked well

Used it on cat pee on a hardwood floor. The new cat had no inclination to pee where the old cat had.

I'm seeing a number of products that address urine, but my cats are defecating under a bed, on the carpet, but use their boxes for urination. Will this product help with the defecation odor?

For us: It has helped to calm a kitty from trying to mark his area, to make a safe space, once I used enzyme fluid to remove the urine smell and washed everything. It *could* work for your situation, but no guarantees. We can definitely notice the kitties are calmer and more comfortable in the sprayed areas.

I have put them on painted wood without any problems. However, I would not put them on furniture though since it is too risky but then again, cat scratches on furniture look awful! I also put them on our leather couches and my kitties no longer claw the couches. I only wish I had discovered sticky paws BEFORE the cats pretty much ruined them!

No there is not a tool specifically for furniture. You could use the floor or the six inch tool without micro pads to disinfect the furniture, kill mites, etc. I use Woolight Spray Foam, scrub it in, let dry, then vacuum.

Great question. Yes its sticky enough to discourage cats from stepping on it. It's also easy to remove off counter tops and won't hurt your cats' paws :)

I would not use it to keep cats off the furniture, as strong scenting oils (also essential oils) are in fact very dangerous for cats. Check out this article. http://articulateanimals.com/blog/2009/10/essential-oils-2/

I sprinkle some in when I add new litter to the exsisting. Every few days. My cat is in end stage kidney failure and he urinates a lot .. this does help keep the smell down thankfully.

I had elderly, incontinent kitties and this was AMAZING, even on wood floors. If used on carpet, be sure to soak the area so it works into the carpet padding and even the wood sub-floor especially if the stains are old or the spot has been used repeatedly as a litter box "replacement." <G>

I got a GrippMat from a local pet store. It has a small lip and grips to prevent movement. My cat doesn't make too much of a mess with the water is it works great with that plus we have hardwood floors to worry about.

I would suggest using a clear Rubbermaid or plastic container. If your town has a plastic fabrication shop, you can get one custom made for less than $50.00. I have a cat that stands when she pees and using a 12" tall Rubbermaid box prevents damage to other surfaces.
