I believe the directions for THIS product (not the X-O Plus) say the dilution is two parts water to one part X-O. I have mixed it weaker and had it still do the job if the odor wasn't too bad.

I have not had that happen. I have used it in my carpet shampooer, and in squeeze bottles (an old dish detergent bottle) and in spray bottles. ALWAYS dilute it before putting it in any container! For the carpet cleaning machine, I have the type that has a separate clean water tank and a separate detergent tank, and the machine mixes it together, but when using this solution I dilute it first and fill both tanks with the DILUTED mixture. For spraying, I find that spray bottles are a pain to deal with, so I use an old Dawn dishwashing liquid squeeze bottle and dilute it with tap water. It's easier to squeeze out the amount I need, especially when mopping the floor. I wrap a microfiber cloth around the Swiffer sweeper and use this cleaner and my floors are squeaky clean!

Did you ever find something for your cat? I just toilet trained mine and am looking for something that will flush the toilet every few hours...not necessarily motion activated (i've read that those don't work very well for cats).

The one I have is used for 3 cats. I have to refill it once a week. I am also not sure if the one i bought was 3.5 gallons. I think mine is smaller. I do however love the brand.

I put a pump from a hand lotion bottle on the Shed Relief bottle and give my dogs 2 good squirts each and my cat 1 squirt. I would say that the 2 squirts are about a teaspoon worth. For all 3 of my pets, I would say that the bottle lasts around a month and a half. I have been buying this for a few years now, and my pets do shed MUCH LESS than they did. Their coats are very soft and shiny, people notice this and comment on it all the time. When I first bought this, I thought no way was this going to work, but since it was all healthy suppliments, I decided to try it. It took a couple weeks but I really did notice a difference in the shedding, no more tumbleweeds of dog and cat hair on my floors.

Hi Doreen... Actually, I bought the 4 pack because I have four cats. I had earlier in the month bought a 4 pack someplace else, so I had two treatments for each cat. I did the treatments three weeks apart (the instructions say it is OK to do if you wait seven days). I bought the 9+ lb. package as three of the cats are well over that weight. One cat is a bit smaller and I didn't use quite all of the tube on her. None of the cats had any bad reactions, and it worked well for three of them. The other cat (partial Maine Coon) had some results, but not so good.

When I first used this litter I used it by itself through the first changing of the litter to get the full effect of the product and to get my cat used to the smell and going back to the litter box. After the next litter changing I mixed the litter with a little bit of the litter that I previously used. My cat still continued to use the litter box. I kept mixing my previous litter with the cat attract litter until it was gone. My cat continued to use the litterbox and started using regular litter. I hope it works for you.

I know this product for me, removed the urine odor completely for me, but I bought a no no spray type (to discourage from going again) after I cleaned just to be sure they didn't go back. I know cats and dogs will go back to same spot because they smell their urine. I can't smell anything at all after using this, but their noses are stronger! But so far so good for me, cleaning with this and spraying a no pee spray once it dried.

To be honest Mike I have all hardwood and ceramic floors. I have 2 corners in the house that when my cat seems stressed or ticked off from lack of attention she will spray. Approx once a month. I find it gets rid of any odor to my nose but after using this product she is still marking. Clean the cement very well with soap and water and then dose it with vinegar then I would spray urine off on it and put saran wrap ontop of it for a day. The saran seems to keeps the urine off liquid longer some that it really works at breaking down the enzyme. I have had success with cayenne pepper as a deterrent, only problem is I have a dog and he is a hound and likes to sniff..lol.Good Luck with your plight!

Yes, I also had trouble with this product! And I am stuck with an unused canister also. I will not purchase this again and I would advise anyone considering it to just pass it up. I feel it is a very inferior product. Like you, after fussing with it I got the first canister connected and it worked fine, but I will not buy anymore! I would suggest to anyone trying to train a cat to go with the scatmats... they are pricey, but they do work. I bought just one and keep moving it around. Hope this helps!

I believe the 'ideal' way to apply it is using a spray. failing that I have just poured it on the offending spots (probably overdoing it and soaking the carpet instead!). I just finished my big bottle and am not reordering it because I found that rather than removing the odor it just covers it up with a perfume scent... basically, I am sorry to say that I have yet to find a suitable solution for urine stains or odors.

I use this product to kill the order of pet urine in my house. After spraying the area and letting set for about 24 hours I then clean the area and if possible steam clean (floors). I then respray if I think there is urine still under the baseboards or spots my cleaning missed. If it is used again by my cat, I know I did not get all the urine cleaned up, however, I can not smell urine in my house and visitors have commented they would never know I have multiple cats.

Hi, depending on your cats but at least two...I have 1 cat that pees directly down the drain and meows to poo outside...then two others will use any of the 3 I have but the rest are fussy. Only choosing the laundry or bathroom litter but never the other...good luck....I don't miss the beads, but I do miss the simplicity of the unit.

I first bought a small bottle at whole foods health store to try (it was great) Then I ordered the 800 ct bottle and to me it smells like cat urine. Didn't notice that smell w/ the small bottle. I didn't know if it was normal.

I had the exact same experience with my cat's medicine! Very tiny... did a great job. These machines do wear out so you'll need more over time. Very worth the $.

I had an issue with a cat peeing in inappropriate areas - I tried this product - it was OK - just spray and saturate area and then let it dry. Personally I use anti-icky poo spray now first and then my favorite called Zero Odor next. That combo gets everything clean and smelling nice.

As on any spot, make sure to pretreat with one of Nature's Miracle for cat urine. Then cleaning area with a spray bottle mixture of hot water and shampoo as a temporary fix does work, but make sure to blot the area quite well removing as of as much dampness as possible. But truthfully the action of a rug cleaner is best and there are several "Spot cleaners" on the market that are affordable and work quite nicely. Spray bottles and a sponge just can't get as deep as the urine already had. Using a product to break down the urine is as important as this shampoo, they work hand and hand. But how well you use the shampoo makes all the difference. Again as a quick fix use by hand, but a machine is best. As on any spot, make sure to pretreat with one of Nature's Miracle for cat urine.
