Oxyclean for carpets. Its a miracle worker.

There is some cleaner called "Greased Lightning" that works REALLY good on carpet stains-espescially on light/white colored carpets. I haven't had the misfortune of Seafood flavor cat vomit, but it got red marker stains out, and a multitude of others out of my carpet. Depending on the texture of the carpet, you will have to dab/blot, and maybe pour a small amount of hot water on it to dilute the stain that seeps down to the padding, then blot again. Rubbing and scrubbing should not be done unless and until you have just a faint stain left, because you will just spread the stain, and the more scrubbing you do the more it wears the carpet in that area, and it will still be noticable. They sell it in the cleaning supplies at Walmart or Family Dollar Stores, and it's less than $4 a bottle. It's also good at cleaning other surfaces, and it's even taken grease/oil stains out of my husband's jeans without discoloring them. Good stuff.

Oxyclean can work wonders, but there is another product I like too. It is called Spot Shot, comes in a blue trigger spray bottle at the grocery store, and it gets rid of stains and odors. It is almost a necessity if you have pets. Remember, some treatments may sound attractive, but they may not work and once you use them, you could lock in the stain. I'd go with oxyclean or Spot Shot, even though you may not have them on hand at the moment.

Try Oxy Clean. mix it with water to form a paste and put it on the spot. Let it soak in for a bit and then dab it off. If its a white carpet, maybe a little bleach water scrubbed in would do the trick?

I reccomend a combination or 2 products. Oxyclean & Folex.
I adopt older / elderly cats and have had them vomit on the carpet more than once. Folex is a great stainlifter for vomit , human or animal

i found a product on a shopping channel called " stain buddy "
all you have to do is spray it on the stain...you do not have to rub
it out. just apply product and the stain disappears. i could not
believe my eyes. i have never have seen a product word so well.

Get new carpet that isn't white, or an easily washable floor

For now...wet cloth and dab the carpet...DON'T WIPE IT!!!!
You'll likely need to get it cleaned.
Does he/she know about the cat?
