Sign in to disble this ad
Apparently my cat decided to crawl into my dryer and pee. Sufficied to say, the next day the load of towels I dried the next day did not smell april fresh.

Any suggestion on how to sanitize and deorderize the dryer?

Thanks.

I'd go pee where the cat sleeps, and show him what it's like.

If he didn't sleep at the foot of my bed, I might do that.

Put the cat in with the next load of towels (please set to "Air Fluff"... we don't want to cook the kitty) for a few minutes.

Problem solved... well, your dryer will still smell like cat piss for a few weeks but I guarantee he/she won't be peeing there in the future.

:P

There's a kitty-pee cleanup product called "Nature's Miracle" which works pretty well. What I'd do is put two or three towels in a bucket and pour Nature's Miracle on them, and then dry the towels in the dryer. It might take doing that a couple of times, but I bet it would work.

Couldn't you just get spray the inside of the drum with bleach and then wipe it out really well?

next time you see your cat cleaning him self, pee on it, then he will know how you feel.

soak the cat in that natures miracle and toss him into a dryer.

+1

I wouldn't be happy until the cat was tumbling around in the dryer for an hour or so

Ya, cause a dog can make your towels stink by just laying on top of them.

Just hang it on the line. You may have to iron it more after it's dry though.
