OK so let's be honest here: I am a crazy cat lady. No shame. I don't know how exactly I ended up with 4 cats but that is neither here or there, fact is I have them and they are disgusting. Little hairs everywhere, bits of claws scattered on the floor and don't get me started on the puking, how gross is that?!
ANYHOO, this is about Arm & Hammer's cat litter deodorizer so let's stay on topic (stop distracting me, yeesh).
With four cats, I'm legally required (er, morally?) to have at least four litter boxes, if not five (it's one for each cat plus one just in case you have one of those jerk cats who likes to use a separate box for #1 and #2). One of our boxes is a huge corner box that looks more like a Rubbermaid bin than a litter box.
Prior to my new apartment, I lived in a cozy 650 sq ft 1 bedroom condo. "Cozy" is the word realtors use to mean "so tiny you can't turn around without hitting yourself, you'll be lucky to fit a bed in this thing" so it goes without saying that despite religious cleaning of our four litter boxes in said cozy 650 sq ft condo, my house would sometimes get that distinct "cat lady" stench to it. How embarrassing, right?! I'm not a pig! The cats might be but me? I'm messy, not dirty, but you wouldn't know it with litter boxes hiding in every available corner.
That's where this magic powder comes in. I'm really not sure what's in it but whatever it is should be considered gold to crazy cat ladies (and men, there ARE crazy cat men out there, right?).
When I moved into my new place, I only had one litter box in the large downstairs bathroom for the first two days and did not put my favorite cat litter stinky-makey-go-away magic powder in the box when I filled it. HUGE MISTAKE. My brand new, clean apartment reeked of cat every time I walked through the door. When I had time to put a second box upstairs, I grabbed the magic powder, coated the bottom of the box, filled with litter and sprinkled some more on top. Ahhhh yes, that's the stuff!
I immediately went downstairs and added a ton of the stuff to the stanky, nasty litter. And just like that, the smell was GONE.
This stuff will NOT allow you to be lazy and not scoop for three days or anything BUT it WILL make your cat stinkies far more tolerable until you are able to get them in a plastic bag and out of your house. It truly is incredible. The box could be inches from my face and I don't notice cat smell. When people would come over to my old apartment, they'd even remark "wow, it smells great in here!" as if to imply that because I'm a crazy cat lady, my house should smell like cat and a bad episode of Hoarders. I was so happy to know that, even if it means my friends are rude.
And let's just say nothing kills the mood more than a stinky litter box (except maybe annoying children running around demanding to be fed I guess?) and this stuff keeps my bedroom smelling like stripper perfume and aphrodisiac candles so I can have my boyfriend over and not worry that he'll break up with me for being a dirty, gross cat lady. Nope, he wants a set of keys even so wait for it he can feed my cats when I'm out of town on work! WIN.
Thank you, Arm and Hammer. Because of you, I can be a crazy cat lady AND still hot. I love you.
