And finally...the last tip.
If you're in the middle of solving a cat urine odor problem, you need to track down and thoroughly clean all cat urine odor spots in your home.

You can stay on top of a feline UTI problem by testing your cat's urine at home. You use urine pH test strips, compare the color of the urine-soaked strip to a numerical reading, and bingo - you can tell at a glance whether or not you need to call your local vet to see little Muffy.
