AITA for wanting my roommate to wash a tablecloth his cat peed on?

I (31M) feel like I’m going crazy so I had to come here to see if other people agree or disagree with me and the situation. I have a roommate (31M) and we each have a boy cat, I love them both and I’d do anything for his cat just as I would for mine. Lately his cat has been having some bladder issues and has been going pee and poop outside the litter boxes. I’ve seen my roommate clean the pee outside the box by just wiping it with a paper towel, which means I’ve cleaned it after him by spraying it and using disinfecting wipes. I don’t mind cleaning it whenever I see it and when my roommate was out of town I even took his cat to the vet and gave him his meds. I love the lil chunky guy and I was happy to make sure he was ok, I also consider my roommate to by like family and we’ve been close friends a long time. Sometimes when his cat has peed outside the litter box the pee has gotten on the tablecloth we put over the table where the litter boxes are under. Yesterday there was more fresh pee on a corner of the cloth that already had dried pee from before. I pointed this out to my roommate and his reaction was basically “oh well” this made me pretty upset and I told him how gross it was to me to have dried and wet cat pee on this tablecloth, which I’ve washed in the past for this very reason. He said why did it really matter if no one that comes over notices and I told him that it should matter because we know it’s there and we should want to live in a clean environment. He told me next time he’s gonna do laundry he’ll wash it if he remembers but he was laughing and saying it was fine which just felt like he wasn’t considering my feelings and lowkey being disrespectful. This was yesterday and I’m still upset, am I the asshole?
