The best way to clean cat apartments
Cat apartments need to be cleaned from time to time, just like any other furniture. There’s nothing worse than buying cat furniture so your pets have a place to call their own, and then failing to maintain it like you would the rest of your furniture. Cats are very good at grooming themselves, but not so good at keeping their furniture clean.
The first thing you want to do is separate the pieces as best you can, especially if you have a tall tower cat apartment setup. Cleaning when the furniture is fully assembled makes it difficult to reach all the nooks and crannies.
You can then use a tool that is specifically designed to remove pet hair and brush the outside; however, sometimes they will not reach these tight spaces. An alternative is to put on a rubber glove and run it under water. With a slightly moistened glove, rub your hand over the spaces and reach into the cracks.
The next step in cleaning cat apartments is vacuuming. Use the attachment and go over the surfaces to remove dust and dirt that settles on the fibers. If there are stains on the surface of the carpet, then you can treat them just as you would a stain on the floor. You should first treat the stained area by following the instructions on the label of your chosen solution. Be sure to rinse the area thoroughly with a mild mixture of soap and water so that no harmful chemicals remain.
Finally, remove odors. If the smell is mild, you can simply spray with a fabric freshener. If the smell in the cat’s apartments seems to have penetrated, then choose a granular formula and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
When cleaning is complete, reassemble the cat furniture. Just as you did when you first set up your cat suite, be sure to test it for security. All attachments must be rigid to avoid accidental tipping. This simple cleaning routine should be done as needed to extend the life and enjoyment of your cat furniture.
