Forbo Marmoleum is utilized in bathrooms of schools and hospitals as well as residences worldwide without issues of human urine. However, cat urine may be different. As long as it is cleaned up shortly thereafter, it should not be a problem. However, if it sits overnight it may absorb. We offer samples and would recommend that you test with your cat to be certain it satisfies your requirements.
