Cats may pee outside of the litter box for many different reasons, from their surroundings to their health.</p><p>If any of these issues sound familiar, addressing them can help you prevent any future accidents. When in doubt, talk to your vet, especially if peeing outside the litter box is coupled with any other abnormal behavior. </p><ul><li><p>Stress: A soiled litter box or untidy surroundings, strange guests stopping by, or loud noises may stress out a kitty, leading them to pee outside of their box.</p></li><li><p>Health: Cats with health issues like UTIs, bladder stones, diabetes, or kidney disease may pee around the house.</p></li><li><p>Marking: Cats may mark around the house to either claim their territory when other animals come around or to attract a mate.</p></li><li><p>Preferences: Your cat may simply prefer a larger litter box, or maybe they don’t like the new litter you bought on sale at the store.</p></li></ul><p> </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to deep clean a rug?

• <div><p>Professional rug cleaning will take between one day and a week on average. Some cleaners can complete the process in a few hours depending on the method, but most will keep the rug for several days to ensure proper cleaning and drying.</p></div>

Q: What happens if I don't clean my mattress?

• <div><p>If you don't clean your mattress, it can become host to thousands of dust mites. These microscopic critters commonly cause indoor allergies in the U.S. An uncleaned mattress can also take on foul odors, stains, pet dander, and bacteria. Mattress cleaning removes these contaminants and creates a fresher, more hygienic sleeping environment.</p></div>

Q: How often should I clean my dining room carpet?

• <div><p>How often you should clean your dining room carpet depends on how much foot traffic and spillage your home experiences. At the very least, you should vacuum once or twice a week to remove surface debris before it can become embedded in the carpet fibers. Hire a pro for deep cleaning every 12 to 18 months to maintain freshness while prolonging the carpet's life span.</p></div>

Q: What is a good substitute for carpet cleaner?

• <div><p>You can clean your carpet with products you probably already have underneath your sink. You can use baking soda the same as a powdered carpet cleaner. Club soda can lift new stains, while white vinegar and dish soap can pull out old stains. </p></div>
