What is the best product or home remedy for removing the cat urine smell from frabics and/or carpet?

Answer 1

It's the smell of decaying fatty deposits in cat urine that makes it smell so bad. You need to buy a cleaning product that contains enzymes to get rid of these fatty deposits. These are available at vets and pet stores.

A home remedy that also works is to mix 10% biological (enzymatic) washing powder with 90% warm water to clean the area. Then rinse thoroughly with cold water and wipe dry. Next, using a plant mister lightly spray the area with a low grade alcohol or surgical spirit. Use a nail brush to ensure you get right into the fibres of the fabric, this will remove any traces of fatty deposits that the washing solution may have missed. Allow the area to dry thoroughly or you can use a hair-drier to speed things up. I'd recommend testing this on a small area first to ensure it doesn't remove the colour from the carpet or fabric of the affected area. Dependent upon how strong the smell is, you may need to repeat this cleaning method.

Cat urine contains ammonia, so whatever you do, don't use bleach or any products containing ammonia to clean the area. Your cat may just think that another cat has over-marked the area and he will end up urinating there again in order to cover up the "other cat" smell.

Just take a few baking soda, combine it with an overly small quantity of vinegar to make a paste, after which positioned it at the carpet with an ancient toothbrush. Allow it to dry, then vacuum. If the stain is reasonably eliminated or lightened up, repeat once more. Or small quantity of Swarfega or WD-forty. Worth checking out an overly small quantity of those matters to look what works excellent. Have additionally heard of the brown paper and iron procedure.
