Hi I’m Aurikatariina and I deep clean my followers' homes for free! ❤️ Today I am cleaning this home for a lovely single mom and her two kids. I was heartbroken when I found out that there were young kids living here. Their beds were covered in cat pee and they didn’t have any space to play. The home smelled horrendous and it made me feel sick. But I wanted to make this home shine again. The mom and the kids deserve it. The mom had been a victim of physical and mental abuse which led to drinking problems. Luckily she was able to ask for my help and now that I have cleaned their home they also receive some help for the children.

My best advice for parents who are drowning in problems. DO NOT ADD PETS TO THE EQUATION. It won't end well and the animals end up neglected.

[@georgielancaster1356]

Pets can be a huge comfort to people and especially children who cannot turn to an adult. It can be their only form of affection. To deprive them of that can lead to a very sad life of not being able to show or understand emotion. Alexithymia. Someone in the comments section has it.

[@Laura-je2uw]

@@georgielancaster1356 in this (and a lot of other cases with similar situations) it leads to the kids having to sleep in cat urine drenched mattresses and i am quote sure that the animals are not getting the proper care (food, changing litter boxes, medical visits) they should get. How is this good for the kids or the animals?

[@mollyfarrell-savage9492]

@@georgielancaster1356 give them stuffed animals. Actual pets are living, breathing beings with needs of their own. They do NOT exist solely to “provide comfort” that adults refuse to give their own kids. Don’t advocate for child neglect AND animal neglect wtf

[@critterc0rner]

@@georgielancaster1356 animals are not toys they’re a lifelong commitment just like children, if you or your children are unable to afford or clean up after the animal don’t get one. People especially kids can get comfort in other things like toys. I would not find comfort in a living thing if I knew I can’t properly take care of them and are forced to live in squalor. I would think they’re miserable and it makes me feel bad.

This video was very hard to watch. This happened to my family. We kids were sleeping in beds with cat urine and fecal matter, and our carpets were full of fleas. We had no hot water and had to boil it on the stove to wash ourselves. My mother was an orphan who suffered from abuse and neglect in her own life and eventually turned to alcohol, as did my father, to cope with stress. Thanks to people like yourself, we were assisted in various ways (house cleaning by church friends, cats were removed by an aunt, new transportation was donated, etc.) and slowly my parents got back on track. They spent the last 20 years of their lives sober, happy, and in control. What you do matters! (Adding a note here because several people have asked about the cats. We had about 25 cats when feline leukemia broke out and a majority of the cats got quite sick. My aunt paid a veterinarian to come to the house while we kids were at school and he fixed and vaccinated the cats who could be saved, and euthanized those who could not. It was one of the worst days in my life, but it was a huge help to my parents and it was all done with the best intentions.)

Anyone complaining about using too much water/product has never smelt a home like this, of course you dont want to hose your house down everyday if it's not built to do so, but over cleaning a house in this condition is a good thing, you want to knock out as much bacteria as you possibly can, and even have some fun with bubbles because keeping good mental health through a clean like this is just as important. So happy we have people like you in the world to help families and people to move on from hard times.

The people complaing about how she cleans. The water etc are just the sillest people. Its maddening how petty and stupid people can be. They need to stay in their own life and just get lost!!

[@christyzeeaquarianated2600]

This was me in 2015. I'd finally managed to escape an extremely abusive relationship. Whilst my ex was at work, I got my 3 babies together, packed a few suitcases, and left. We had nowhere to go, so we were homeless for a while, then we got a spot in a women's refuge. My health was at an all-time low, I desperately needed surgery (my ex broke my jaw and smashed all my teeth, but I wasn't allowed to seek medical treatment at the time, so my entire facial structure was a mess) and I became addicted to opioids (pills) because I was always in so much pain. I managed to rent us a house, and that's when I completely broke down. At my worst, I didn't sleep for 3 weeks straight, so I'd started hallucinating - it was bad. Our house ended up exactly like this one, bar the cat related issues, as we didn't have any pets. Even though I was finally free, I wasn't free from the trauma, and it brought me to my knees. My kids suffered greatly, and I don't think I'll ever forgive myself for that. One of my neighbours could see that I had totally spiralled, so she made me accept her help to clean up the house (she was Swedish, and very persistent lol.) We got it done over a weekend, and things started looking up. I sought help for my mental health, and my insomnia issues. I eventually got myself off the opiates and also got the surgery I needed, then I went on to move and get a great job. It was a long road, but I got there. These days, I sleep well, I clean, I garden, I paint, and I live my life everyday with the goal of doing everything I can to support my kids; they are who I get out of bed for. I'm just about to go back to full-time work after a hiatus, and I no longer live in a waking nightmare. I have hope. The point is, people often think that once someone is out of a bad situation, that's it - they're fine. A lot of people didn't understand why I had a complete breakdown *after* I got out. What we don't talk about enough is the aftermath; the after effects of traumatic experiences, the fear, the energy it takes to push through that fear, the nightmares, the stress, the hopelessness, and what it actually takes to get back on one's feet after living in abject misery and fear for years. We don't always just bounce back, sometimes we land even further down the gutter. It takes monumental effort to escape abuse, and we're often left absolutely empty once we go through getting out. It takes time to build those energy reserves back up, and in the meantime, everything can - and often does - fall apart. It's wonderful to know that there are people out there who are empathetic enough to look beyond the overwhelming mess in front of them, to see into what the problem really is, and to just help. We all need a little help sometimes.

[@jasminebambury5841]

All the best to you. What a survivor and warrior for the babies♡☆

[@sheilam4964]

@Christy Zee Aquarianated - 👍👍👍👍👍 Thank you. You put into words what I could not, of my own experience. I too was abused by my violent Mom as I grew up and later in a violent marriage. I left the marriage every year for 5 years but would be physically dragged back. After 5 years I finally was able to get over 360 miles (580 kms) away. Far enough he couldn't find me. Before that I didn't have a vehicle and his was always locked with the key in his pocket. He was also a light sleeper. That was back in the 50-70s with my Mom (my brother and sister say they don't remember "that") and 70s with my husband. Anyone I went to for help would tell him where I was when he phoned or dropped by. He keeps harassing them or playing the pity card over and over again till they give in. I'm sure they thought they were helping, even though I told them what he was doing to me. People, even family and friends, really do not want to be involved and when confronted will give up information to avoid being harassed by an aggressive person or even if they find him to be a GREAT guy, best buds, right. Makes it hard for them to believe he is so violent towards you. Even if you end up in the hospital. He down plays it or right out says it was your fault. Who are your friends and family to believe. They don't want anything to do with figuring out who is telling the truth between a nice guy and an obviously "upset" female. A female who is in shock from what has happened and in fear she will be found. Found and be taken back into the place of abuse. BUT you put a lot of my feelings and behaviour into words that I am unable to express. Once you are out nothing is fine. You are no longer fine. You are soooo broken. It is PTSD. We are just learning what that is and still don't know how to fix it or how to deal with it. Survivors just have to 'deal' with it. Your mind will not stop trying to 'deal' with it, figuring it out; how do you avoid it happening again. How to live with the nightmares. How to you silence or stop the memories that play over and over again in your mind no matter what you are doing or where you are. You are never safe from your memories or "out" of there. in you mind. Just like happy memories that pop up at any time, the nightmare memories do too. Good memories are triggered by the darnedest things. So are bad memories. Something so simple as seeing a happy couple definitely brings up THOSE memories and couples are everywhere, all the time. Memories are next to impossible to forget and it takes time to be at peace with them. This is how your day plays out. Every day. For years. Thank you for your words, Christy. They helped me.

[@littlestbroccoli]

As someone who was a teacher for 20 years, thank you for helping these kids. I taught middle and high school kids, and it was amazing how many of them were in this kind of situation. One of my students told me he had no bed. Their apartment was filled with 8 mattresses and his parents rented them for 8 hours to anyone who could pay, so often he had nowhere to sleep because all the mattresses were rented. God help us. Also, great job on getting the kids mattresses. That's a GIANT help. Someone needs to keep checking on this family to keep the mom accountable. We didn't see the mom's room or bathroom, so I'm guessing she had to clean those herself. It's great that she cleaned her bathroom. This apartment was a health hazard, for sure, and the children deserve better.

[@sherylturnerturner1352]

[@FuddledOnion]

I don't know if you've heard this tip before but if you are cleaning a home with a lot of cat litter/urine scent everywhere, place a large mason jar of hot water and white vinegar in the room about an hour before you go in and leave it there while you clean. It helps neutralize the scent and makes a huge difference in air quality I swear

[@JesusForTheGays]

@Zita There is no garauntee as to the condition of the house longterm. You are ascribing outcomes to strangers online based purely off of dogmatic responses, not through logic and reasoning using scientifically and statistically proven estimates of probability of outcomes, but through dogmatic beliefs of brutal honesty without any actual honesty, and pessimism disguised as realism.

[@niteflytes]

Zita, you don’t know that. Auri has heard back from people she has helped telling her they have kept their home clean. And saving someone’s life can be metaphorical and not literal. This kind of negativity is unnecessary. If everyone had that attitude then no one would ever help people in need and nothing would change. People need hope, a fresh start and help in order to change. Yes, it might get dirty again, but that doesn’t negate any of the effort made to help someone. Sometimes change happens gradually and a person needs a lot of help. My mom tried to quit smoking seven times. Even though she started again 6 times she never gave up and we encouraged her every time.

@@JesusForTheGays you've used a lot of big words to sound intelligent, whilst at the same time calling the writer "dogmatic" based on your own "dogmatic" beliefs. . 🥨 the science DOES support the idea that unless someone makes the decision to be better, they will fall back into old habits. this one clean won't fix anything without effort from the mum.

[@JesusForTheGays]

@@ssp4795 1. I purposefully use words people will understand. Most people know what dogma, scientifically, statistically, probabilty, and every word I used mean. All of those terms are actually really common in debate, especially politics. I'm sorry, but if there are terms that I feel best represent what I'm trying to convey, I'm not going to dumb the words down to seem like I'm not trying to come off as smart; Especially if I have reason to believe people understand the terms I'm using. 2. The science doesn't support a guarantee of anything. Saying something WILL just happen again as though it's certian fact is inacurate. There's probability, no actual "This is the way and only way it's going to play out." 3. If you can understand what I mean then I fail to see how "I'm just pretending to be smart". I did what I set out to do; Which was to convey the message that I wanted to send. 4. You're ignoring context to this situation to make the mother come off worse than she actually is. She escaped a physically and mentally abusive spouse, realized the state of her home and called for help from a proffessional cleaner who would know how to clean such a toxic environment to work in better and safer than she could, cleaned the second bathroom herself and did just as good of a job as Ari judging by the photos (The second bathroom looked far safer to work in than the rest of the house judging by the before photo, and was far easier for an overwhelmed single mother tp handle), and got in conact with as well as worked with cps afterwards. She 100% had the drive to change, ya'll are just ignoring that to arbitarily force her into a box based purely off your predisposed beliefs towards this sort of thing. Using "big words" doesn't make me intellegent, but you two ignoring the nuance in this situation doesn't make you right either. 5. Calling someone out for dogmatic responses to complicated issues that should be taken on a case by case basis does not make it so that I'm basing my arguement on dogmatic beliefs. This persons whole "It'll just get trashed again" spiel is absolutely something I see all the time and is a dogmatic response to all situations like this regardless of context. 6. I find it interesting that you specified "someone who isn't motivated to change and doesn't put effort in" , implying that this logic applies to this case. When the latter is lying and the former is something you not only failed to prove but then ignored the blatant contradictions to in this case. I'm not even upset that you didn't provide sources of the science, I'm more baffled at how you twisted the situation to make your assertian of what the science says apply instead.

I appreciate the non-judgement, but I am still worried for the children's physical and mental well-being. I really hope the mother gets all the support she needs to provide a healthy and safe environment. Thank you for doing this. The mattress situation nearly broke my heart. I have two boys (4 and 7) and sometimes I feel guilty about cleaning when I should spend time with them or I feel guilty for not cleaning enough. Being a mom is always hard, but this was really tough to see.

[@lauravaldez3829]

Being a single mom is crushing. Yes you are filled with guilt cause someone is raising your child. While you work your ass off to make ends meet. Then when you get home you are exhausted. Barely have enough energy to make food for your kids and your self. Then, if you decide you want to spend more time with kids time at work slows and so does money and do you are destitute. It’s a vicious cycle of chaos, work, rush rushrush rush. Not sure how but I found a husband who is the best provider and I get to spend what little time o have left with my son before he goes off to college.

As someone who works in an animal shelter, I can definitely vouch for the smell of a place like this. I’m not talking about the “I know animals live here” smell. I mean when anything or anyone pees and it’s left, especially on fabric, it’s like fermented ammonia. When I do laundry at the shelter, even if the dog bedding has only been sitting for one day, when you pull the top blanket off the bin, the ammonia smell hits you like a truck and it’s suffocating. Add that to the rest of the garbage in this home, and all I can say is NO human or animal should ever have to live like this. I am so beyond grateful there are people like you who help these families restart their lives ❤️

my heart goes to these kids and this mom. It’s absolutely tragic that such young kids and animals had to live in these conditions, and I think it speaks VOLUMES that this mother looked for help and cleaned up. that is something my parents couldn’t do. they were too ashamed and too prideful to let others know the life their kids were living, and to this day we’ve been left traumatized because of it. not to mention the immense guilt I personally feel for the pets we had. there is still time for these kids; the shame doesn’t need to last forever. I understand people being mad at the mom, but too quickly do we jump to blame women for situations like this. I can’t even begin to imagine the pain of being physically and mentally destroyed by your husband while trying to care for TWO kids. even as a mother, that can break you. massive props to her for quitting drinking and not letting this go on longer than six months, to be able to do all of that despite her circumstances is absolutely astonishing and I believe she deserves so much credit for it. as a victim of both abusive family, an abusive partner, critical neglect, and maggot filled nightmare homes like this-I can’t describe how proud I am of this woman. I hope that since this she’s been able to get more long term support and healthy coping mechanisms, not just for herself, but her kids and cats too.

Also, plucking flowers and _ing trees and mowing the lawn etc are harrible _ / zynz against nature!

[@evefreyasyrenathegoddessev4016]

Also, all should use the terms ‘washing’ something or ‘wiping’ something etc instead of ‘cleaning’ or ‘clean’ etc, to avoid term misuse! Technically, something can be washed or wiped etc, but it doesn’t make it cIean - humnz / mammaIz etc are moving objects and are uncIean by nature aka eempure (so no amount of washing can fix that) and, non-moving objects (items) are only uncIean by contamination, as they were made from cIean materiaIs that come from nature, so those items or at least the materiaIs they were made from were once cIean / untchd by humn hand before they were tchd / handled / misused by humnz etc! While we pure beings (me & my pure protectors aka the alphas and flowers / trees / plants etc and birds / bees / butterflies etc) are cIean / pure by nature and we are cIean even when unwashed, which is why we do not have unpIeasant smeIIs!

[@evefreyasyrenathegoddessev4016]

Purity is associated with good smeIIs or no smeIIs, while impurity is associated with unpleasant / harrible smeIIs! So the more unpleasant something’s natural smeII is, the more eempure it is!

This video really "hits home" for me. I remember growing up in a house like this one. We had three cats though. I would constantly go without food or hot water. And there was urine and excrement from the cats everywhere. Even in the shower. I couldn't have friends round, I stank constantly. To this day my mum still lives like this. We had manyyy people come and help us. But it never stuck. I'm almost 24yrs old now. And I struggle with keeping a clean home. I've suffered from psychosis for almost 5yrs now. And am finally coming out the other end. Thankfully I haven't let it get to this level in a few years now (after moving out of my mums) but it's still not tidy. Now that I'm coming out the other side, I'm getting better at cleaning. And one of my goals for this year is to keep a tidy flat. I'm putting on your video today as cleaning motivation. So that over the next week I can get my place to a point where all I have to do is KEEP it tidy. Rather then doing a lot at once. I know for some people your help can be inspiring.

If a cat’s litter box is dirty, they won’t use it. The box MUST be cleaned (sifted) at least once a day, twice if there are multiple cats. Fresh litter should be added once per week. If they keep the litter box clean, the cats won’t go anywhere else. Think of it this way. Spending just five minutes per day maintaining the litter box will save countless hours cleaning up other places they pee and poop. There won’t be any foul odor either.

You have changed the trajectory of these children's lives. The mother also did by reaching out for help regardless of the shame. This is the best motivation for cleaning I've ever seen you are wonderful :-) and so are your helpers*also I have found enzymatic cleaners like bio klean, or any other brand specific to pet urine works amazing, even on items that can't be washed. It's also important to use so the cats don't return to the same areas

[@luzyluciernaga]

Enzymatic cleaners are The best for The smell, The stains and for The cats not repeating in The same áreas. Even Cats and dogs. You don't have to wash sometingh. Only spread It over the affected area. Ca

[@HB-pr2tq]

Enzymatic cleaners, good recommendation. But as far as new matresses, sheets and blankets for the kids (and the mom, if the cat peed there too) that's a given no questions asked.

I make my own spray cleaner. With a empty spray bottle I use 1teaspoon of dish washing soap(Dawn/blue) 4 tablespoons of lavender Fabuloso and 4 table spoons of white vinegar then fill the rest of water. I also love it when I wipe up the floor and see the dirt I've whipped up.

You are so amazing for allowing her a safe space to reach out. Also Incredibly amazing for the work you do! This is no small accomplishment on either side and you did it in such a non judgmental way! Keep up the work you do! Not all heroes wear capes! 🥰🥰🥰

[@sylviabanks7700]

It’s nice to see almost zero negative comments judging the mom. Life is stressful and that mom is probably doing the best she can with what she has. I hope this is the first step in her getting back to a normal cleaning routine and her kids can have friends over. Sending her and her babes love and light. ❤

[@buffalokay]

I can imagine a situation like this could quickly spiral out of control, especially when you’re exhausted, depressed, and hopeless. Where to even start? You know? No judgment here. I’ve been there. Not to this extent, but I suffer from severe chronic, mysterious pain that none of my doctors seem to know the origin. There were a few years there that I felt utterly hopeless. No hope of a future of any kind and no light at the end of the tunnel. I don’t know what happened, but I must have slowly snapped out of it and now I’m doing much better, thank the lord. So I truly get it.

[@zazaiwon87]

Yes but come on! There are 2 kids living in this filthy mess. The cat pissed and pooped allmover the place and these poor kids are living and sleeping in it

This reminds me so much of a girl I met in junior high and was friends with through high school. Her mother was al alcoholic and their home was almost exactly like this. Just garbage everywhere and her mother would throw everything everywhere. Most of her free time was spent cleaning up after her own mother. I felt so much for that sweet soul! She was determined to try to HELP her mother up until graduating from high school and needing to get her own life together. She joined the military, trained to be a nurse and now she is out with a job in a hospital. Her mother is pretty much still the same person, heavily drinking on a regular basis which is so sad but no one can help us if we won’t help ourselves. So thankful my friend had the strength to get away from her mother.

[@francessadler6878]

I’m so happy you bought new mattresses and bedding for the kids. When I heard that the mattresses had cat urine, I admittedly hoped you found a way to replace them and was so glad you did. Future tip, put protective plastic sheeting under bedsheet/on top of mattress incase the cat returns to old habits. Then they can just wash the sheets and wipe the plastic sheet (good for bed wetters too) and the mattress will remain in good condition. Loved their rug. Wish I had the same. Very proud of the mum for asking for help

[@susannecarter2341]

I've had to do this on my own bed and lounge. I sometimes foster cats and they do sometimes pee on my bed and even my own cats have had accidents when they're sick or accidentally locked in a room. I learnt my lesson the first time but luckily the pee had not gone all the way through to the mattress. I immediately went out and got a waterproof mattress protector and something similar for the lounge. It has saved my bacon a few times since then

[@clwhite1127]

Or cover mattress with hospital pads that are washable

[@amys5669]

@@florencecavallaro4599 Yup. Poor cats litter boxes were so gross cat didn't/couldn't use it. The maggots. And, sharp lids everywhere (top of cans). Don't think most people can just 'stop drinking' alone especially given how many liquor bottles were on top of the trash as she cleaned. Hope social workers monitor this family and make sure it doesn't get back to that unsafe condition and that the kids/pets are well cared for.

[@taja6950]

You still need to vent this as much as you can, since where you put plastic it can get moldy..

[@buffalokay]

They have whole mattress covers that are waterproof. The good ones are about $100. But they’re worth it. They keep out allergens as well. If something spills on the bed, it doesn’t seep into the mattress. You just unzip the cover and toss it in the wash.

I am in the same situation with my wonderful mother. She is a great mother but when I was 8 she suffered from depression and the house got filthy.. she is now working on it with the support of us and our cat! She had made so much progress and I'm so proud of her. ❤

[@idepartasair]

I grew up in a home almost this bad. By middle school, I felt humiliated bringing friends over and felt completely isolated and neglected in my own home. The only clean space in the home was my room (thank God I at least had my own room that I could make my safe place). However, my parents developed an animal hoarding tendency, and I often went to school probably smelling like dog (especially if we currently had a foster with mange). I have four kids now, and I have been through serious depression, but I absolutely could not do this to my kids. I pray that this mom doesn't go back to her old ways, but if she's anything like my parents, this is a way of life that doesn't go away, and it can destroy family ties over time.

[@GotAnUmbrella]

That's the same exact situation as my partner. They grew up in a house like that and his mom has a shit ton of animals now.

[@ItsOKtobeNormal]

I've gone thru depression as well but I couldn't do this to my kid either, unless I was physically unable to move and even then I would give her up to a family member because she deserves better than this, all kids do.

[@jessicaleerandall]

My heart hurt for this family. To the dear mother, I hope you are proud of yourself for the two VERY DIFFICULT + BRAVE steps you have taken. First, leaving an abusive relationship and second, recognizing that drinking was not the healthiest way to deal with the pain. You are so strong and wise. There is nothing like a fresh start to put the difficult past behind you. May you always remember your courage. Your children will always remember the braveness of your journey together. Love from NYC 🖤🖤🖤

What a lovely and understanding person you are. My son recently died through his depression, he had alcohol dependency, the only time he was happy when drinking. He was the kindest soul, never abusive. His end was horrific to say the least, his last words to me were "I'm so sorry mum". That broke my heart. His neighbours were like his brother and sister, their granddaughter is heartbroken her best friend is gone, they too are beyond sad. I thank you for your good 💖💓

[@mariafox9226]

@@thecommentpolice not blaming this mother in anyway but rather just putting it out there so that people know, cats no like-y when litter box no clean-y. And this is why it’s important you clean out the litter box daily and change the litter once a week depending on your kitty.

[@Silveirias]

Apart from their litter boxes being dirty, cats really do pee in places like beds (or dirty laundry) when they are scared or stressed. It's because by peeing there they are putting their own smell there, and that makes them feel safer. And putting their own smell somewhere that already smells safe makes them feel even safer. You spend hours in your bed every day, so it's probably the most you-smelling place, and thus the safest place in the cat's mind, in the house. So this cat probably deeply loves the kids and feels safe with them and wanted to make the place even safer in the middle of all this chaos. My own cat has peed on my bed when he's been under a lot of stress (when he was ill and came back from the vet and after being left alone overnight which I had never done before). You can clean a mattress from cat pee if it's not as bad as on this video. Soak the spot thoroughly with a cleaning product (ideally disinfecting). If you can, rinse after having let the cleaning product get properly absorbed. Make sure the mattress is properly dry before putting it back to use, and use baking soda for absorbing any remaining chemical smell. 👍🏻
