Successfully getting cat urine of a mattress is a matter of acting fast – don't let the pee sink in for too long, otherwise you'll have a harder time getting it out, and the accompanying smell and stain will be harder to shift too. Here we walk you through how to getting cat urine out quickly and easily, including the products you need to have your mattress looking and smelling like new again.
But why is it so hard to get cat urine of a mattress? The reason is because cat urine contains uric acid crystals and these aren't water-soluble. This makes cat urine one of the most difficult liquids to remove with regular cleaning methods. Plus, the ammonia in cat urine has a pungent smell that really lingers if you don’t clean up the wee as soon as it happens.
