Today, I bought a UV light so I could detect cat pee, since I was sure my cat was relieving herself on the carpet. I decided to try it out in the living room first. Nearly half the room lit up like a Christmas tree. FML

Smells like victory

Today, I was drying off with a towel after coming in from outside. I noticed that the bathroom smelled like cat pee, so I sniffed all around to find out where my cat peed. Turns out, he peed on the towel that I was drying myself off with. FML

Today, I finally discovered the reason my front room smelt funny. My dog, thinking the Christmas tree was real, has been peeing on it for the past two weeks. FML

Today, my husband thought it was the best idea ever to clean the cat's litter box with the brand new vacuum cleaner instead of tipping it into a bin bag. My house now fills with the smell of warm cat piss every time I hoover. FML

Today, I came home after a short trip. Walking through the door, an overpowering smell indicated that in my rush to leave I'd forgotten to bring the cat litter tray indoors. The place was covered in cat urine. It was as if I'd created a cycling ecosystem of evaporated urine turning into urine rain-clouds. FML

Today, I learned why my bathroom has a horrible, seemingly irremovable stench. My cat doesn't squat to pee like a normal cat. She stands up, peeing over the side of the litter tray all over the wall and floor, which are now a permanent yellow tinge. FML

Today, I spent a long time steam-cleaning a mystery stain on my living room carpet. I turned the light on to get a better look at it, and realized that it was a shadow. FML

Tidy your room

Today, I woke up and stepped on a wet jacket. After smelling what it was, it turns out the cat had peed all over my laundry, especially the waterproof jacket, and after attempting to clean it up, it dripped everywhere and the entire apartment now smells like cat piss. FML

Scaredy cat

Today, I thought it would be a good idea to surprise my cat with a fancy new toy. I spent $30 on a laser pointer. Turns out, my cat is terrified of lasers, and spent the next hour giving me the "You betrayed me" look from under the couch. FML

Curious...

Today, I woke to the smell of poop in my apartment. I went to investigate and found out a cat had pooped in my living room. I don’t have a cat. FML

Today, my cat decided that the best place for her to pee was over the surge protector where my modem, router, and printer are plugged in. FML

Your living room mist be either extremely small and/ or dirty, or your cat has been very busy. Cat urine does show up under uv light, but usually only when the light is near the spot. Unless you mean as you were walking around the room. Either way, get cleaning!

Sounds like a urinary infection

You know...there are other fluids that become visible in UV light. For example, sperm.

selling it sounds about rite,I would suggest killin' it but the whole 9 lives thing could complicate things,I mean the odds are 5 out of 9 times it will comeback angry and ready to give free facial adjustments.

In all likelihood, if the carpet really did light up very brightly, you're not seeing pee-- you're seeing cleaning agents. Lint and soap/bleach/detergents show up bright white/blue. In reality, pee should show up yellow/green, and only if you're holding the light VERY close to the stain.

You might want to take your cat to the vet, especially if this is new behavior. We lost our cat to kidney disease last month. The first symptom: he began urinating on the carpet instead of the litter box.
