Causes of odor
The main reason for the appearance of a cat smell in an apartment is the animal’s desire to leave its marks. The reasons for this furry behavior can be different:
- Cats mark territory when they don't like the smell of a place.
- Also, during estrus, many animals try to make themselves known in such an unpleasant way for humans.
- If the animal has recently experienced stress, this may also be the reason for the pet’s not entirely adequate behavior.
- In the same way, an animal may try to attract the attention of its owners if it feels that it is not enough.
Important! From a chemical point of view, the cause of the odor is the composition of cat urine, which includes substances such as urochrome, urea and uric acid. It is the last element that gives the unpleasant odor.
But you should also remember that if the dirt is not removed in time and the stain is not disinfected, bacteria will begin to multiply and the smell will only intensify.
