[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 314637, member: 6705"] If possible, shut the cat in a room with a litter box - the pads in it, then slowly add litter is a great idea too - make sure he has food and water - NOT next to the box - and he can stay there for hours at a time. If it is a room, you won't need to let him out for exercise. A room with tile instead of carpet is better. Fold up a towel and place it on a counter or surface for somewhere for the cat to sleep. Not on the floor. Also a good way to get the smell out of the carpet is the old volcano trick. Fill a spray bottle with vinegar. Sprinkle baking soda on the floor, spray till WET with vinegar (and watch it foam!). Let sit for about 20 minutes then use a carpet cleaner or a scrub brush to scrub it up. FYI - most cats do NOT like this!!! Do not, whatever you do, use ammonia to clean it up. [/QUOTE]
