My cat peed on a throw rug - can this be used in the washer?

I don't know with this product but I have used another product (K.O.E. from my vet) in the wash that I have used on stains and it works really well in the wash and in my carpet cleaner machine. In fact, I have to use it to get out puke or pee stains or else the smell will absolutely not come all the way out. Sincerely, stain freak, lol!

Deanokat is correct that the label says to soak thoroughly before washing (I usually find that works) and unfortunately the manufacturer is closed until Jan 3rd (877-880-8855=8 in 1 Pet Products or the site www.ilovenatursmiracle.com). I would soak it and not use the actual product in the washer. Great question by the way! Ruth

The directions for laundry use of this product say to soak the spot thoroughly *before* washing. It doesn't say anything about actually using it *in* the washer.

Given the fact that it is solid foamy vinyl stuff, I wouldn't hesitate to throw it into a large washer. You probably wouldn't want to wash it on hot, of course. Or you could take it outside and hose it off. I scrubbed my floor before putting the mats down. So when it comes time to scrub the floor again, I'll just scrub the mats along with it. But I put regular kitchen rugs over them, so they shouldn't get too dirty anyway. Just wash the rugs.This information is worth about what you pay for it. You might want to google the manufacturer.

No, I don't think so. If you wanted to wash it, I would take it to the dry cleaners.

Yes you can but you can't use detergent at same time as the ball. If you have stains, use stain remover or add OxyClean type product to the washer.

I don't really know. Haven't tried to wash yet. It looks sturdy enough to wash, if you can get all the catnip out first. I wouldn't want the catnip in my washer.

I wash it in the laundry room sink. Discard any poop with poop bag. I rinse mat with watm water to remove excess urine. Then plug the sink and fill 2" with hot water and add laundry detergent. Any cheappy brand. Let soak while I do a chore. Rinse off thoroughly. Hold on side to let excess water drip(rolled up). Then lay grass side up on top of rag on top of washing machine to air dry. I have a few grass pieces to alternate. The dogs dont do their business on a wet pad. I put wee wee pads under grass to hasten clean up time. The grass keeps it consistent with outdoor pottying.

I used it for my baby piggy and it was very absorbent so I don't see why it couldn't be used for a cat!

I highly doubt it. Washer will be a little rough on the mat. I usually wash it by just rinsing it with dish detergent and sponge and then let it dry by itself. It dries quite quickly when I just air-dry it

I would definitely throw it in the washing machine if it got dirty. I haven't tried it yet but it looks durable enough to do so.

Absolutely...that's one thing I love about the rug. Wash it in hot water with bleach (it will get dirty/mildewy over time) then put directly back in your tub.

I had a disabled, incontinent cat. She had her own living area, covered with whelping mats, which I washed in "NoRoma Industrial Odor Eliminating Laundry Wash" (available on Amazon). It is expensive, but works wonderfully. I set the washer for the longest cycle possible (cold-water wash). You need to use the full amount suggested, even in a front-loading washer.

I personally hand wash my bathroom rug and let it drip dry. I never put it in the washing machine, due to the fact that I did that with a similar rug and the wash machine ate it! Yikes! I hope this helps you.

I don't have a cat, so I can't answer that. I have machine washed, and machine dried the throw with no ill effects.

I would just take it outside and apply dish washing detergent, scrub it with a brush and then hose down. Did the kitty pee on it? Sometimes vinegar helps with that issue and it isn't as harsh as bleach.

No it is not, however, you can unzip the bag and pull out the bag that the stuffing is in and put something over it to urine proof it. If your animal has an accident, you're not able to wash the frame in the washer as it has a metal rod in it to help keep its shape, but you are able to soak it/hand wash with no problem.

Your question uses the word "on," did you mean "in"? If so, then yes, scoop the box, put it in the toilet and flush. This is meant to be an alternative to throwing away pet waste in the trash, which will eventually be buried in a landfill for 500 years before breaking down.If you had an alternative method of training your cat to use the toilet, this is not a good product for placing inside the bowl of the toilet. If you place 5 pounds of this litter inside your commode, it will soak up all of the water available, until it becomes approximately a 20 pound clump. That would be bad, to say the least.
