Although cat urine is essentially no different from the urine of other animals, many people consider cat urine to be one of the hardiest odors in the world. Urine is a concentrated form of metabolic waste and contains sodium chloride, other electrolytes, other detoxified compounds, urea, creatine, and uric acid.

Its distinctive yellow color is due to urobilinogen. Although the exact reason cats do this is unknown, it's possible that they don't like the scent of clothing or the scent or position of their litter box.

They might also be exhibiting stress-related behaviors, which are frequently brought on by changes in the home, such as the arrival of a new baby, the purchase of new furnishings, or a transfer to a different house. They can even have a medical issue that has to be addressed.

Therefore, it’s not unusual for cats to urinate on soiled clothes, bath mats, and even bed linens that are still on the bed. This is similar to the story which you’re about to read in today’s post.

The OP’s cat developed a habit of urinating on a pile of dirty clothes belonging to the OP’s mom. The OP also mentioned that the cat didn’t have this pee problem before and that it only started when the mom started abandoning her pile of dirty clothes for weeks.

Find out how the entire story unfolded as you keep scrolling down.

It should not be and this should not happen

Both of you sound so immature

This Redditor tells the OP not to bother about being in the wrong or not

This Redditor thinks that things just might get worse

Keep your cat out of the laundry room

Sounds like you both have a responsibility in this

You are responsible for whatever your cat does

She can either wash or throw them out

This Redditor doubts the OP's mom will start taking care of her stuff

Tell her you will throw the clothes away

You should probably warn her

This would just be escalating the situation

The OP needs to get a place

The fact that cat urine is typically ignored until it becomes an issue is what gives it such a terrible reputation. Cats often mark their territory in places other than the litter box, such as the carpet or secret corners, but in this case, it’s the pile of dirty clothes.
