He's all yours!

 

J/K, but here's where I sound like a total bachelor ... I've still never gotten used to this, or have perfected the technique. I know people like to post nothing but squishy, heartwarming pics of their kitties in cutsie poses and all, but how about the flipside of the bagel? I should post a photograph of Bubba upchucking all over my nice new drop rug!(#$.

I'm wondering what the pet experts here normally do when this happens? As a guy, to me the real answer is obviously the rug has to go straight into the garbage. (Along with the cat rolled up in it).

But my mom once taught me that this isn't necessarily the best method of action, because I'll spend a lot of money on rugs. So what I usually do is, while holding back my own vomit, holding my breath with a handkerchief tied around my face like a Jessie James train robbery, shake the chunks (ha! bet ya liked that visual!) off into the garbage can, and just throw it in the washing machine. But the thought of it sloshing around in my machine, where I wash my clothes ... ew.

Any better, less nausea inducing way to do this?

Re: Anyone want a cat??

Gwen pukes a lot.  Seriously, sometimes like 2 or 3 times a week.  Not hairballs, puke.  Stevie's method works really well, only instead of a dedicated towel, it's one of the few things I use paper towels for.  I'm with you, 'dogg, I don't want those chunks sloshing around inside my washing machine, no thanks, my undies go in there!  After the bulk of the solids are cleaned up, a wet/dry vac kinda rocks.  something like this will more than suffice:

but if you want to get all manly about it, there's always this:

After it's close to dry, I spray the heck out of the area with Febreze.

Now, that's what I'm talkin about. That bad boy looks like it needs a shoulder strap, leather gloves and protective goggles. Using that might make cat cleanup a pleasure!

Re: Anyone want a cat??

 Wow, I do the handkerchief thing too. Only, I put a dab of Vicks right under my nose. What can I say? I gag easily. I usually just pick up whatever vomit I can with some paper towels then scrub it. Steam cleaner is King, but we only use that when we notice too many stains. Wink

Re: Anyone want a cat??

For some reason, I always feel like I'm just smushing the stuff back further down into the carpet when I scrub, rather than getting it out. Even after *gag*, picking up the chunks first. And even with using some kind of spray spot remover.

Re: Anyone want a cat??

Cat puke.  I know cat puke.  Get two flat things like 10"x10" paint shields:

The basic technique is using a firm grip, use the "dustpan method" by pushing the edges under the puke toward each other, scraping almost all of it up.  You should then be left with very little residue to clean up with a wet (and dedicated) dish towel.

I would stay away from detergents/cleaners because they leave a sticky residue that attracts dirt.  Just use water for the cleaning wipe job.

Re: Anyone want a cat?? (Stevie)

haha.. I used to have a cat named Scratch who was a bit wild.  In the case of giving him medication, etc., the CMH could have stood for the Congressional Medal of Honor.  Scratch's folder at the vet had the most red dots (warnings) of any animal there.

Re: Anyone want a cat??

Thing one is to figure out why your cat is such a booter.  Could be the food.  Could be furballs.  If you can solve the problem at the source...

Really gross, but if you don't have a thick pile rug let it dry first.  I know, vile.  But makes cleaning it easier.  I highly suggest a steam cleaner.  I have the little Bissel.  I couldn't live without it.

We have three cats and two dogs.  One is the sort that Anime described.  The eater of all things.  But since he's also the one that wants to kiss us the most, we highly discourage his other "activity."  The other dog is a Dane.  You think a wee little cat puking is bad?  Dude... You'd pass out cleaning up Dane puke. 

I do the Jesse James thing, too!  I'm glad someone else does.  Makes me feel like less of a freak. Smile

Oh that's no problem, trust me. Being a guy, I could easily leave that sucker there and walk around it indefinitely, lol.

Hahahaha! I just got an image of me literally passing out after first discovering that on the floor. While I was housesitting my brother and his wife's cats and dog this summer, one of his cats unleashed a fury of hork all over the kitchen floor. You'd of thought the cat was 3 times his size, I thought I was gonna have to hire a swat team of pet vomit experts to come in.  Reminded me of Mr. Creosote.

Thanks for that BTW..  I watched the whole clip.  A fan of Python movies has to have his "Creosote Fix" every few months!  Haha!  I wonder if YouTube has the "Vaginal Juices" sketch from the same movie?

Re: Anyone want a cat??

i've never known a guy friend or relative with a pet cat. most have dog(Drunk.  so, i'm going to guess/suggest maybe a wet/dry vac? or there are several "How to clean up cat puke" videos on YouTube, believe it or not!
