Author: I scrubbed the stain when it happened. I used carpet d.o. I just steam cleaned the carpet, and didn't turn the air back on. I came home to an humid, cat urine smelling apartment. I soaked the carpet and scubbed with carpet cleaner for the steam cleaning machine. I scrubbed with laundry detergent. I resteam cleaned the carpet this morning.
HOW DO I GET RID OF THIS SMELL WITHOUT BUYING NEW CARPET? Please help…………..
the problem isn't the carpet, but the pad underneath. I say pull up the carpet to expose the pad and cut out the section of the pad that smells and replace it with a new piece of pad.

Use OxyClean

douse the area with vinegar, down to the padding. The vinegar smell will dissipate in a day but usually will counteract the urine smell.
Use a black lite to determine exactly where the urine is so that you do not miss any.

I was driving back from vacation and I had one of our cats piss in my new 05 truck. It stunk pretty bad. Iwent to Petco and bought a spray that had enzimes in it. The enzimes were suppose to break it up. It worked really well. I dont know the name, but any spray like that should work. Good Luck!

I hate to tell you this but alot of products that claim they work don't. `I did, ,however, just `order a bottle of zero odor. You can get it from the web site. Its http://www.zeroodorpet.com. I hope this stuff works!

Saturate area with WHITE VINEGAR……….AND SMELL WILL GO AWAY. An air ionizer (professional model) can be rented in the most severe cases.

OdoBan from Sam,s club works pretty well also cutting ouy the piece of padding where the cat urinated, If possible this will work better than anything else.
An idea from TV. Said cat urine has fat in it. After blotting, soak the area with rubbing alcohol to break down the fat in the urine, then wash with an enzyme cleaner. This really works! AND the cat will not go back to the same spot.
To neutralize the odor of cat urine or "spray," use Listerine Mouthwash. It can be poured into a spray bottle and applied to the area as needed. You may want to test on a small area of hidden fabric before applying to upholstery.

Listerine will remove some of the smell.
A large carpeted area near the litter box was soaked in urine. I bought a 2-pound box of Arm & Hammer baking soda and poured it liberally on the spot. I let sit overnight, vacuumed up the next day, then used Carbona pet stain and odor cleaner. It worked.

I used almost every product on the market for cat urine in carpets. Nothing for pets worked. Then I found Bissell Fabric Refresher as a quick fix to get rid of the smell. Also, No-Go! Housebreaking Aid stops cats from re-urinating in the same places
I got this idea from a vet on TV. She said cat urine has fat in it. After blotting, soak the area with rubbing alcohol to break down the fat in the urine, then wash with an enzyme cleaner. This really works! AND the cat will not go back to the same spot.

I would suggest the ol' tride and true of equal amounts of vinegar & alcohol. If you want this amount foamy add a bit of dish washing detergent. Should neutralize the stain.
References :
ODOR REMOVER
16 oz. (2 cups) hydrogen peroxide
2 tsp. baking soda
2 small drops liquid dishwashing soap (Dawn, Palmolive, etc.)
Place all ingredients in a glass jar or bowl. Gently stir–do not beat or shake–until baking soda is dissolved.
If urine is fresh, be sure to blot up any excess urine with dry paper towels or a dry washcloth before the next step.
Pour mixture over urine spot, making sure to cover the entire spot. Allow mixture to completely soak the area being treated. Do not rub or scrub! Let sit for 24 hours without disturbing.
After 24 hours, take clean paper towels or a clean, white washcloth and blot up any remaining liquid (Again, do not rub or scrub.).
Allow area to air dry completely. If you are treating carpet, you can vacuum over the area when dry.
Makes 16 oz. (2 cups) of solution.

We have tried every product, and for us nothing has ever "worked like a charm". Usually you're just adding the smell of orange, or vinegar, or whatever to the already horrible smell of cat urine.
Be warned that if the cat continues to use the carpet on a regular basis, you may eventually have to pull up even the floorboards underneath to get rid of the smell. When our older cat suddenly started urinating in the carpet, fortunately she confined it to only one room. We pulled up the carpet right away and laid new laminate. That was the only way to get rid of the odor. Since we did the work ourselves it did save on money quite alot.
The key to dealing with cat odor in the carpet is alot like dealing with an unwanted pregnancy….prevention, prevention, prevention! Any pet can have an occasional accident, but sometimes that's all it takes to start a cycle of problems. We had another cat that suddenly decided she preferred a particular corner of our floor to her litterbox. I moved her pet dishes, (food and water) to that place and she immediately returned to her litter box.
Another option is to set up another litter box where they've started using the carpet. Sometimes they'll go back to the box using that strategy.
Finally, you need to eliminate the possibility that the cat is using the carpet because there is a medical problem. (Such as urinary tract infection, kideny problems, etc.) So a trip to the vets is probably in order.
Sometimes changing the brand and consistency of your litter makes a difference. Our cats HATE the blue crystals and won't use them, but they seem to get along fine with Tidy Cat clumping litter (the one with the red label).
Also, if you have more than one cat, that could be an issue as well. Sometimes cats get very territorial over their litter boxes, so one cat could be chasing the other right out of it and onto your carpet. The vet told us we should ideally always have one more litter box than cats. (If you have one cat, have two litter boxes, two cats, three litter boxes, etc).
But it doesn't help to punish them or rub their noses in it or whatever. You can change the conditions of the environment, but you can't really change the cat.
Good luck! I know it's a frustrating problem that isn't easily dealt with. But sometimes it's easier to replace a rug than our beloved pets……

you have to remove the under pad where damaged and replace, the urine probably soaked through to the flooring so clean and disinfect the floor before you put the new under pad in, clean the back side of your carpet also where stained, then clean your carpet.

saturate the spot with white vinegar. blot it up with dry towels and repeat. that will take any smell of urine out when it dries. it is the only thing i know of that neutralizes cat urine.
