We've had a lot of heavy storms. I got a slight flood in my basement from the last one and spent the day cleaning up the murk and muck. EEEeeeeeew. I tried to use kitty friendly cleaning colutions, but ran out somewhere halfway through. It was a bigger job than imagined, so I ran to the convenience store across the street. All they had was Mr. Clean. Of course there was a huge warning "hazardous to humans and house pets."
I used it because I needed it, and I must say it did a great job cleaning things up and getting rid of the musty smell. I let is dry as much as I could... but since its still incredibly muggy, there were a few damp spots when Pouncer somehow got to the basement. I don't think he stepped in any of the puddles. I picked him up and his feet didn't smell at all like the Mr. Clean. I took a rag and dried off the remaining wet spots as best I could. now I'm worried about a residue. I HAD to leave the basement doors open so that Allen and he could have access to their litter boxes. We have one upstairs but Allen prefers the one in the basement. We tried moving it before but he wouldn't use it in the "new" location.
Should I worry? Even though I wiped Pouncer's feet, he'll get bakc downstaors and run through the basement. He LOVES the basement. He'll hang out down there all day.
