Cats Piddle on carpet

[Drisgirl]

My cat had piddled on the lounge carpet and I have sourced where it is.

I have disinfected and scrubbed and put on Get Off and the room still stinks.

I put Bicarbonate of Soda down today and left it for ages -after dampening the carpet -then I let it dry and hoovered it ip then scrubbed with vinegar and then sprayed 'Get Off'

It still stinks.

What next?

(BTW -he has been to the vet and he is fine -he has had a fright outdoors and is clingy ATM -we have a litter tray now which he wouldnt use before as he always wanted to go out -but is using and also going outdoors so he is feeling secure)

borax is apparently the thing to use, cleaning stuffs have amonia in it and that just brings the cat back to the spot again too, its now his toilet lol

no idea where ye buy borax lol

try a little vinegar and warm water.

sorry - obviously hadn't read the question correctly (put it down to my age) - you say you have used vinegar - having said that, I've worked in animal welfare for a thousand years and we have always used this with brilliant results..I'm not saying other things don't work - they probably do and very effectively too but once you have put anything on the area which contains chemicals -(particularly ammonia - and lots of sprays etc contain this) you are actually making the problem worse. If you get no success from other suggestions - wash the area thoroughly with clean water (several times) then apply a dilution of vinegar and water. I'd be very interested in your findings. Go well

I have just had the same problem and had Neutradol carpet odour destroyer reccomended and it is absolutely brilliant,also good for putting in the bottom of kitchen bins.Polly

[Tallulah!]

Yes. Neutradol is very good. Cheaper than new carpet and is good in the Toilet too.
