Feline Urine on Orchids

[Becca]

I am sooo peeved! I just discovered, for the second time, that my cat has decided to mark/spray on my orchids that are on my plant stand! So my question is, how bad or what will feline urine do to orchids, even more their roots, besides just smell bad? I have tried to clean them off the best I can, but it is already lights out and I don't want to risk getting water in the crowns. Most are phals, one about to bloom (which really erks me), and a couple of my Neo's! Luckily the Neo's didn't get hit from what I can tell. Bus I am sooooo mad! I am tired of my cat marking and spraying! We have two cat's (both spayed and neutered), one is a love bug (the male) and one is jealous and hormonal as heck (my female), so I figure it is my jealous one since the marking is always on my stuff, my side of the couch (on the arm), my laptop sitting in my reclining chair, and my orchids, rarely on my hubby's stuff!

Anyways, I think some of the roots on one of the phals may have gotten it pretty well. I guess I could put a plastic enclosure around it but then I have to make arrangments for a fan on the inside of it and I really don't want to go that direction. Dang cat's! If it wasn't for me having her since she was a kitten (now she is almost 10) I would send her to find a new home!
