Cat Vomit - Cleaning Tips

[Lady'sOtherHuman]

I use a high traffic foaming carpet cleaner. My animals (dog and 2 cats) don't like the sound of the spraying and a little bit can go a long way. They also don't really like the smell of it so they stay away from it and then I just make sure I vacuum the spot when it dries so I don't have the dust flying around.

I put a damp towel over the mess, I do not have carpeting.
Poor John Hancock was losing most of his meals that way, My Poor Balinese.

There is a product sold at PetSmart called "Get Serious" (http://www.petsmart.com/product/inde...ductId=2755377) and this is the best thing I have EVER found for cleaning up after 16 cats.

Thanks! I will check that out.

Thanks from everyone else for their suggestions too.

Just last night Sky ate too fast and he barfed up his dinner all over my carpet and carpet runner. I usually hear him making the hacking noise so I try to move him to a hard surface if possible. I've been using Simple Solution which is also an enzyme cleaner and it works well. First I blot the area with a paper towel and clean up all of the vomit. Then I spray the enzyme cleaner and blot more. Then I spray more enzyme cleaner and I let it air dry. If I still notice a spot after it's dried then I spray more on it. Good luck.

Mac scarfs and barfs nearly every day. It's a lot less since I switched to grain free feeding, but he will still urp at least a couple times per week. The sneaky little devil does this in the middle of the night and it's often dry and crusty by the time I find it. I will try some "Get Serious" from PetSmart. Thanks for the tip!

Same here. 9 times out of 10 I find it after the fact all dried. I am wondering if the grain-free would work for my Buddy. He has the medium length hair and I always just assumed he barfed so much from the longer hair.
