cat urine laundry room on Granite

My male cat because a med. size plastic toy in the corner has urine their. I just noticed it when I removed the toy. I have tried joy, & ivory soap,with brush & water no luck, this is a new home. Do you have a suggestion? Thanks, Marie
 

Dear Marie:

I don't understand if your problem is a discoloration, the pungent odor of urine cat, or a combination of both.

If you have no discoloration but a bad smell, your vet or the pet store near you have available very effective “odor digesters” for your kind of problem. All you have to do is apply the product following the directions.

If you have a combination of both (stain and odor), you will remove the stain first and then apply the odor killer.

If you have a discoloration (the urine was absorbed by the stone) and no odor then you will have to remove the stain.

How?

When it comes to stain removal, either you buy one of those expensive “Professional kits” (that true professionals seldom use!) at a stone retailer near you, or you can spend less money and get our comprehensive guidelines on how to remove stains by using inexpensive and far more effective means that you may already have in your household! Such impressive piece of literature will also tell you how to tell stains apart from “stains”, and what to do about the latter! It does carry a small price tag, and you can order it by logging on at:   http://www.mbstone.com/literature/literature.htm.   It's available in pay-per-download format and it's much cheaper than any kit on the market! Not to mention the little and much needed support you'd be giving to the cause – your cause - since every single penny of the cost of the article will be used to support it.
