Homemade Spray To Stop Cats From Peeing
Tumblr media
To effectively deter cats from inappropriate urination, consider a homemade spray using natural ingredients. A simple formula involves mixing ½ cup of vinegar with 1 cup of water, which cats typically dislike. Citrus solutions, such as lemon juice or boiled citrus peels, also serve as effective repellents.
For added potency, you can enhance these mixtures with crushed garlic or rosemary extract. Be sure to clean the area thoroughly and reapply regularly, especially after rain. Understanding the triggers behind your cat's behavior is crucial, and exploring various homemade solutions can foster a harmonious environment for both you and your pet.
Key Takeaways
Mix ½ cup vinegar with 1 cup water to create a strong-smelling deterrent spray for cats.
Use citrus mixtures like lemon juice or boiled citrus peels, as cats dislike their scent.
Enhance deterrents with crushed garlic and pepper, but avoid these ingredients directly on cats.
Regularly reapply sprays, especially after rain, to maintain their effectiveness in deterring cats.
Monitor your cat's behavior and consult a veterinarian if issues persist despite using homemade sprays.
Effective Homemade Spray Recipes
youtube
Creating an effective homemade spray to deter cats from inappropriate urination can be a game changer for pet owners seeking a humane solution. Utilizing simple ingredients found at home, you can create homemade mixtures that are both safe and effective. A popular combination includes mixing ½ cup of vinegar with 1 cup of water. This vinegar solution serves as a reliable deterrent due to its strong odor, which cats find unpleasant. Additionally, employing natural scents that cats dislike can enhance the overall effectiveness of your homemade sprays.
For those looking to harness the power of citrus, combining lemon juice or citrus peels with water creates a natural repellent. Adding crushed garlic and pepper to this mixture can enhance its effectiveness, although caution is advised to prevent any harm to your feline friend. Additionally, rosemary extract mixed with water not only smells pleasant but also can help deter cats.
Using a homemade cat spray that includes eucalyptus oil can further enhance the deterrent properties due to its scent that cats dislike.
Furthermore, maintaining a clean litter box is essential in encouraging proper urination habits. Incorporating cat-repelling plants such as rosemary into your garden can provide an additional layer of protection against unwanted feline visits. Deterring cats can also prevent unpleasant odors and damage to property, making your home more comfortable.
It is essential to reapply these sprays regularly, especially after rainfall, to maintain their repellent effectiveness. Remember to test fabrics before application to avoid any discoloration. By creating these gentle yet effective homemade sprays, you can foster a harmonious environment for both you and your beloved pets.
Essential Oils for Deterrents
Essential oils can serve as effective deterrents for cats, providing pet owners with a natural alternative to chemical repellents. However, it is important to approach their use with caution, as many essential oils are toxic to felines. Cats lack the enzymes needed to metabolize these oils, which can lead to serious health risks, including liver damage and respiratory distress.
As a result, always opt for diluted forms of oils and consult a veterinarian before use. Cats are territorial animals, and this instinct can lead them to mark areas with their scent, making deterrents particularly necessary. Additionally, using a DIY cat repellant spray made with safe essential oils can enhance your efforts in keeping unwanted behavior at bay.
Among safe options, lavender and chamomile oils are gentle and can deter cats without causing harm. Lemongrass and rose oils are also effective when properly diluted. Cats generally dislike strong scents like peppermint and eucalyptus, making these oils suitable natural repellents. 
Essential oils can be toxic when ingested or applied improperly, so it is vital to monitor for adverse reactions when using them. When using essential oils, it's essential to avoid direct contact with your cat and never apply them to their skin.
Utilizing diffusers can help disperse the scent while minimizing toxicity risks. Understanding your cat's scent preferences can guide you in selecting the most effective oils. By adhering to these safety measures, you can create a harmonious environment that discourages unwanted behavior while keeping your beloved companion safe.
Citrus-Based Deterrents
Tumblr media
Citrus-based deterrents offer a natural and effective solution for pet owners seeking to prevent unwanted feline behaviors, such as inappropriate urination. The strong citrus scent, derived from fruits like lemons, oranges, and grapefruits, is particularly unappealing to cats, making it a valuable tool in managing cat behavior. To create a homemade repellent, mix citrus juice or essential oils with water, or boil citrus peels in water to develop a potent solution. Applying this mixture liberally to affected areas can help safeguard your home from feline mishaps. However, regular reapplication is essential, especially after rain or watering, to maintain its deterrent effect. Citrus-based deterrents are also made with 100% natural essential oils, ensuring that your efforts to protect your home do not harm your beloved pets. Additionally, using non-toxic formulations ensures the safety of your pets and children while effectively deterring cats.
Safety is paramount; while generally safe, some cats may be sensitive to citrus. Understanding cat psychology can enhance the effectiveness of these deterrents, as it allows you to apply them in a way that aligns with your cat's natural behaviors. Testing a small area before widespread application is prudent, ensuring that your efforts do not inadvertently cause distress. Remember, consistency is key for long-term success. By incorporating citrus-based deterrents into your routine, you can foster a more harmonious living environment, allowing both you and your feline companion to thrive together.
Plant-Based Deterrents
For pet owners seeking a natural way to deter cats from inappropriate urination, plant-based deterrents offer an effective alternative. Utilizing herbal deterrents like rosemary, lavender, and eucalyptus can create a welcoming environment while keeping cats at bay. These fresh herbs can be placed in sachets or planted strategically in gardens, providing both visual appeal and functionality.
Plant infusions, such as boiling peppermint in water, can also serve as a deterrent spray. While lavender and eucalyptus are effective, caution is essential, as these plants can be toxic if ingested. Instead, consider mixing rosemary extract with water for a safer option. Additionally, products like Cat Pee Destroyer can effectively eliminate cat urine stains and odors, further supporting your efforts to maintain a clean home.
Incorporating garden strategies, such as planting citronella and rue around your property, can enhance your natural defenses. These plants not only deter cats but also beautify your outdoor space. Regular maintenance and reapplication of herbal sprays may be necessary to maintain their effectiveness.
By embracing plant-based deterrents, you cultivate a harmonious home for both your pets and your garden, ensuring that your living space remains free from unwanted feline visits. Moreover, using environmental stressors like unclean litter boxes can trigger inappropriate urination, making it important to address all potential causes.
Tips For Application
Effectively applying homemade cat deterrents requires careful preparation and strategic implementation. Begin by mixing your chosen repellents in a clean spray bottle, ensuring to test it on a small, inconspicuous area first. This precaution protects your furnishings while allowing you to gauge the effectiveness of the solution. Consider using essential oils like lemon and rosemary, which can help create a natural barrier against cat behavior. It's important to understand that cat spraying can be a response to stress or anxiety, so addressing these underlying causes can enhance the effectiveness of your deterrent. Additionally, incorporating simple, non-toxic ingredients into your spray ensures that it remains safe for both pets and the environment.
Utilize the following application
After application, closely monitor your cat's behavior. If they return to previously marked areas, it may be necessary to reapply or adjust the concentration of your deterrent.
Maintaining a clean environment, free from lingering scents, is essential in this process. You can also explore additional techniques, such as providing scratching posts or employing calming products, to further support your efforts in curbing unwanted behavior.
Tumblr media
Safety Considerations
Ensuring the safety of your feline friend while using homemade repellents is essential. When creating a spray to deter unwanted behaviors, it is vital to evaluate the potential risks associated with certain ingredients that may compromise cat health. Essential oils, such as eucalyptus and citronella, can be toxic to cats, leading to severe symptoms like vomiting, seizures, and confusion if ingested or inhaled. Cats lack the liver enzymes necessary to process these oils, making them particularly vulnerable.
For safer alternatives, prioritize non-toxic ingredients. While citrus and rosemary oils may be used cautiously in diluted forms, always avoid direct application on cats or in areas they frequent. Vinegar is generally safe but should be diluted to prevent irritation.
Be wary of using hot peppers or garlic, as these can cause discomfort. Studies show that using natural ingredients can effectively deter cats without posing harm to their health. Moreover, understanding cat behavior is crucial, as punishing them may exacerbate the issue rather than resolve it.
Always store homemade sprays securely to prevent accidental exposure. If you have concerns about your cat's behavior, think about consulting a veterinarian to rule out any underlying health issues. A proactive approach to your cat's well-being fosters a safe and loving environment while addressing unwanted behaviors effectively.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Long Do Homemade Sprays Last Before Needing Reapplication?
Imagine a freshly sprayed surface, vibrant with potential. However, spray effectiveness diminishes quickly; reapplication frequency should be considered daily indoors and after rain outdoors, ensuring your efforts remain fruitful in maintaining a harmonious environment.
Can These Sprays Harm My Garden Plants?
When considering plant safety, it's essential to assess spray ingredients carefully. Certain substances, like vinegar and essential oils, may harm plants if misused. Always test on a small area to guarantee no adverse effects occur.
Are There Any Specific Surfaces to Avoid Spraying?
To effectively mitigate unwanted spraying, avoid surfaces like carpets and upholstery, as well as high-traffic areas. Ensuring clean litter boxes and utilizing appropriate surface types can greatly reduce the occurrence of this behavior.
How Can I Remove Existing Cat Urine Odors?
Effective cat urine removal involves using solutions like vinegar or enzymatic cleaners for odor neutralization. Blot the area thoroughly, rinse, and allow it to dry completely to guarantee a fresh, welcoming environment for both you and your pet.
What Should I Do if My Cat Continues to Pee Despite Using Sprays?
If your cat continues inappropriate urination despite sprays, consider underlying cat behavior issues. Explore alternative solutions like veterinary consultations and behavioral assessments, as understanding your cat's needs fosters a supportive environment for improvement and belonging.

(Anon from a little while ago, who had mom in the hospital + cat peeing)
This is just an update, of positive things! Mom is on the mend, and my sister submitted a complaint on her behalf about the way she was essentially ignored in the waiting room. My sister also works in Healthcare so she was able to word it really well and get the point across that it was Not Ok to leave anybody in that much pain waiting, regardless of what they look like.
But we are sending a gift basket to the day nurses that took care of her in the other hospital, because they were so attentive to her pain and comfort. The night nurses were not, unfortunately, but the day ones were fantastic, and made her stay much better.
Also, just for anybodys peace of mind, I didn't punish the cat, because as you said, he is just a little ding-dong animal and it's not like he did it out of spite or just to make things worse. I just carried him over, showed him the spot, and made a really stern "no" before I cleaned it up. Tbh I'm pretty sure he just likes the feeling of denim, because if I leave jeans on the floor, he pees on them, and the lunchbox had a similar material. I WAS able to clean it completely though, with (probably excessive) amounts of vinegar + baking soda, and a couple trips through the wash (I figured: if the washing machine didn't work or ruins it completely, then I'd be buying her a new one anyway), so I was able to get the smell out + disinfect the inside (just in case).
My sister + her brood came over to help out, and the worst of it is over now. My aunt (mom's sister) came by and we all roasted hot dogs and smores.
Other, unrelated good news, our little chihuahua is getting a vet visit sometime in the next 2 weeks (his jaw broke from another dog) and last time the vet said he was healing really well especially for his age (he's old) so his muzzle can probably come off permanently soon.
Even MORE good news, is that because my mom's insurance is great, she only has to pay ~$12 for everything healthcare-related, including the antibiotics/other medication (we're in the US so this is fantastic lol). So. It was a really crappy couple days, but I think we're over the initial bump and now thinks are smoothing out haha
I'm really happy so many things are improving and getting resolved! Though according the cat, as far as I understand cats plain don't comprehend consequences/punishment the way we do. So even just putting your cat close to something bad it did earlier and saying no isn't going to be a constructive lesson for your cat, it's just going to be an uncomfortable interaction your cat doesn't actually learn anything from

My cat keeps peeing on my blankets when he's upset with me (this is normal behavior for him; nothing is physically wrong - he's just a spoiled brat), so I've taken revenge by making a custom anti-pee spray laced with lime juice. He won't come within a foot of it, and the vinegar/water/lime juice mixture completely eliminates the urine smell

Curse Jar!!!
This is a curse jar casting. It’s used to surround your target with the desired energies of your choice to cause them pain & misery. It’s a vengeful spell & one that traps the target in a never ending cycle of chaos.
Items in these spells vary from casting to casting but here is an idea of what might be included in one of these casting:
Taglock - item that links the spell to the target
Broken bones - symbolising broken bones & breaking.
Glass - broken, shattered & of its glass from a mirror it’s seven years bad luck.
Black cat & dog hair - symbolising fighting between the sexes. Good for breaking up a relationship between a man & woman.
Graveyard dirt - death, decay & destruction.
Burnt out matches - burn out, exhaustion & sucks their energy.
Chilli peppers - irritation, hot headdress, anger & short temper.
Ash - emptiness, life in ruins, destruction & loss.
Wormwood - haunted by spirits, attracts bad energies & misfortune.
Broken wish bone - misfortune, bad luck & failed dreams.
Dog poo - life in the shitter, bad smells, health problems & infection.
Dead insects & bugs - pests, plague, spreading of disease & destruction. Health issues, madness & infestations.
Cloves - domination, control, manipulation & mastery.
Black mallow - Saturn energies, baneful magick, chaos & destruction
Sulfur - corrosive, poisonous, irritation & increases the power of the casting.
These are just some of the items you can include in such a working. Of course every item must be added with intention & focus. The whole spell must be chanted over several times & the last item you add is one of the following: vinegar, war water, storm water, death water or human pee!
You can also include sigils, magical oils, crystals & symbolic item’s if you choose. Seal the jar with black wax, add broken glass, nails & thorns to it. Burn a candle on top to charge it with power & then take it far away & throw it into a dog bin, sewer or bog. Left to rot it with fester in the targets life & continue to grow. If you want to be able to remove this, keep it in a dark location on your property such as the back of a shed or in a garage. You can undo this by smashing the jar to break it. Then cleanse the remains with smoke & salt. Say a curse removal chant while doing this to undo your work. Then put all the remains in to a bin far from your home.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned about cleaning, it’s that different shit has different uses, and mixing everything together at BEST just makes them react and gives you a completely useless product - and at worst, you forget the rug you’re carpet cleaning with disinfectant bleach was peed on and now you need to open every window.
SO! Here is my handy-dandy guide to how to use cleaning supplies!
So first off: branded, labeled, storebought cleaners should ONLY be used as intended on the packaging, and should be used SEPERATELY from other storebought cleaners. Tracking down every last ingredient is annoying and stupid, it’s better to just use, wipe, rinse, and then use the other thing.
However! If you are a cheap motherfucker like me, here is my list of vital cleaning agents you need on hand:
Isopropyl alcohol - disinfectant primarily. You can get a bottle of 90% and dilute it by up to 1:3 with water. Also effective as window cleaner, and good for getting smells out of fabric.
Hydrogen peroxide - this is what would medically be called an astringent, but it’s not used for medical purposes very often anymore because it’s an acid that is very good at breaking down organic matter like skin cells, and doesn’t discriminate. It’s typically sold at 3% concentrations and doesn’t need diluting; use on mold, especially in houseplants or in your bathroom. It’s also better for cleaning your ears than qtips.
Baking soda - most people mix it with vinegar, but that kind of fizzing action is only useful in areas that need grime loosened that can’t be reached manually. It’s most effective when used as a scrubbing agent, or when used to soak up liquid. Also a decent all-around deodorizer. Dont mix with water unless adding a a Tbs or two to mop water.
White vinegar - my bread and butter, baby. This shit is great for a lot of things, but most useful is that it neutralizes the smell of cat pee. It’s also good for combating smells in general, and makes a decent fabric softener because it washes away residue left by laundry detergent. Dilute to 1 part vinegar, 3-4 parts water.
Bleach - Old faithful. A disinfectant safe for use on pretty much every surface when diluted to 1:9 with water. Let me repeat that: For use on surfaces as a disinfectant, especially ones that will be touched often, DILUTE BLEACH by 1 part bleach to NINE PARTS WATER. I promise you, you don’t need more. Don’t add anything to bleach. It is its own little magical guy, let it shine.
Soap, ideally some form of detergent - most of these other guys are for disinfecting or odor control, this guy, Hydrogen Peroxide, and baking soda are your main Elbow Grease guys. Soap is made to break down oil especially, but it’s a solvent for most things if you scrub hard enough. You can enhance the scrubby-ness of it by adding banking soda, but bleach or vinegar will denature the lipids that make soap a good solvent.
Secondarily, these things also help:
Lemon juice - Smells nice, has some antibacterial properties, and the scent lingers nicely. Mix with vinegar or alcohol only.
Mint / Spearmint/Peppermint oil - bug repellent. A lot of bugs taste with their feet, and strong smells can ward them off. Doesn’t particularly matter if the oil is food safe, since it’s to keep bugs away. Can be mixed safely with soap or alcohol, but keep kids and pets out of small unventilated spaces while you’re spraying. Dilute about 20 drops of oil in a spray bottle filled with water, add about the same amount of alcohol or soap, shake to mix. Spray around doors, windows, and corners.
I’m gonna be so real, you can do a lot with these here, without ever mixing them more than I’ve described. Go forth and don’t cough up blood trying to clean.
hey remember how awhile back i mentioned that tiktok has a whole trend where people mix cleaning supplies well i redownloaded tiktok so im finally able to show you what i mean

Introduction Disaster has struck and your beautiful carpet has been soiled by spilt food and drink or maybe by a pet relieving itself. But before you go out and buy some harsh chemicals to clean your carpet, you may be surprised to find that with some common household products that you may have lying around in your cupboards, you could remove those stubborn stains in an environmentally-friendly way. This guide aims to show you the common household products that are effective carpet stain removers and the common household carpet stains that occur and pair the stain with the remover for effective treatment.   Common Household Stain Removers • White Vinegar: White vinegar is a triple threat as it is not just a stain remover, but also a natural disinfectant and deodoriser too. • Baking Soda: Baking soda can absorb liquid stains, such as oil and grease. It can also be sprinkled on your carpet at regular intervals and left for 15 minutes before vacuuming up for a deeper clean that removes odours. • Washing Up Liquid: Harsh enough to lift stains, but gentle enough to not discolour fibres or harm pets, washing up liquid is a great go to stain remover that everyone has at home. • Club Soda: An unusual choice, but the carbonation of club soda can help lift stains out of the carpet fibres. • Cornstarch: Similar to baking soda, this powder can absorb liquid stains and then be removed by blotting or vacuuming. • Ice Cubes: Ice cubes can help cool and harden gum or wax that may be caught in your carpet’s fibres. • Shaving Cream: Believe it or not, shaving cream is great for lifting oil and grease stains out of carpets. • WD-40: WD-40 is a good backup for removing gum and wax if ice cubes are not working for you.   Common Household Carpet Stains and Matching Remover • Tea and Coffee: Everyone loves tea and coffee, but nobody likes a tea or coffee stain. If you do spill one or both of these liquids on your carpet, then reach for your white vinegar. Mix the white vinegar with equal parts water and apply to the affected area. Leave it for a few minutes then blot the stain. Rinse clean with water, then blot the carpet dry. Job done! • Pet Pee: Your beloved cat or dog has had a bladder accident, what do you do? Start by blotting the excess urine. Then mix a solution of two parts white vinegar and one part water and use it to blot the affected area. Remember to leave it a few minutes to allow the solution to work. Next mix a solution of half a cup of water and quarter of a cup of baking soda and blot the affected the area. Again, remember to leave the solution for a few minutes for maximum effect. The white vinegar should lift the stain and the baking soda should neutralise the odour. Rinse and blot dry. • Wine and Beer: Once again, most people love drinking wine and beer, but hate wine and beer stains. If your drink does take a tumble, then act quickly and reach for the club soda. Pour the club soda on the affected area and let it fizz for a few minutes. Then blot the affected area. Once the stain is removed, rinse with water and blot dry. • Grease and Oil: If your grease and/or oil stain has a lot of liquid, then reach for either baking soda or cornstarch. Both of these powders can help absorb the excess oil and grease. Out of the two, baking soda is better as it also has a deodorising effect. You can then vacuum the stain or blot it out of your carpet fibres. If the grease and/or oil stain is stubborn, then reach for some shaving cream. Apply a small amount of shaving cream onto the stain, then leave it for a few minutes. Blot the affected area, then use a solution of equal parts water and white vinegar to clean the affected area. Rinse and blot dry and your carpet should be good as new again. • Gum and Wax: Gum and wax can be tricky to remove from carpet fibres. Your first port of call should be to reach for some ice cubes and place them in a plastic bag. Place the plastic bag onto the wax and gum, this should cool it and hopefully harden it. Once hardened, you can scrape of the wax and/or gum with a blunt knife. If this does not work effectively, then reach for some WD-40. Spray a little bit on the wax and/or gum and let it sit for a few minutes. Again, use your blunt knife to scrape off the wax and/or gum. You can then rinse and blot dry the affected area. • Chocolate: Everyone’s favourite treat, but if you spill some on your carpet then reach for your washing up liquid. Mix one teaspoon of washing up liquid with one cup of water. Blot the stain, then rinse with water and blot dry. If there is any remaining stain, then mix a paste of equal parts water and baking soda. Apply the paste to the stain, let it dry fully, then vacuum it off. This will also help remove any lingering odours too.   Conclusion So there you have it, if disaster strikes and you stain your lovely carpet with the help of this guide you can try tackling the stain with some common products that you might have at home. If these home remedies do not work for you, then consider buying proper carpet cleaning products to help you remove the stain. If in doubt, you could always consult a professional carpet cleaner and get them to remove the stain for you. If you are tackling the stain yourself, then remember the golden rule of carpet stain removal: blot. Never rub the stain, instead blot (dab) it starting from the outside edge of the stain and working towards the middle of the stain to stop it from spreading. It is always a good idea to test any homemade solutions on an inconspicuous part of your carpet to check for discolouration before using it on a more obvious part of your carpet. Armed with this guide, you should be able to tackle a variety of common carpet stains with effective and environmentally-friendly homemade carpet cleaning solutions. Read the full article

The salon owner can threaten to fire me over minor mistakes all he wants, but he will never get another assistant SO dedicated to her job that she was willing to bring home a yoga mat covered in cat pee to test to see if a vinegar solution she read about online would clean it so that we don’t have to throw it away
Anyway it doesn’t. It doesn’t clean it 🫠

Cat Peeing Blood Home Remedy: Effective Solutions to Help Your Feline Recover Naturally
Tumblr media
🚰 Tired of staring at that stubborn pool of dirty water in your sink? Don't let a clogged drain ruin your day or drain your wallet with expensive plumber calls. Today, I'm sharing a powerful yet simple home remedy that will clear clogged drain and get that water flowing again in no time!
The Science Behind Drain Clogs
Standing water in your sink or tub is typically caused by a buildup of hair, soap scum, grease, and other debris that accumulates over time. This blockage prevents proper water flow and can lead to unpleasant odors and potential pipe damage if left untreated.
Natural Drain-Clearing Solution 🧪
The Power Combination This remedy uses two common household ingredients that create a powerful chemical reaction: baking soda and vinegar. When combined, they form a natural cleaning force that breaks down organic matter and helps clear the clog.
What You'll Need • 1 cup baking soda • 1 cup white vinegar • Pot of boiling water • Plunger (optional) • Rubber gloves 🧤
Step-by-Step Instructions 📝
Initial Preparation First, remove as much standing water as possible using a cup or small container. This step ensures your cleaning solution can directly target the clog.
The Magic Mix
Pour 1 cup of baking soda directly down the drain
Immediately follow with 1 cup of white vinegar
Quickly cover the drain with a plug or rag to contain the reaction
Let it fizz for 15-20 minutes
The Final Flush After the waiting period, pour a full pot of boiling water down the drain. This helps wash away the loosened debris and complete the cleaning process.
Pro Tips for Better Results 💡
Prevention Is Key • Install a drain strainer to catch hair and debris • Flush drains weekly with hot water • Never pour grease down the drain
When to Use This Remedy This solution works best for organic clogs caused by: • Hair and soap buildup • Food particles • Grease accumulation
Safety Precautions ⚠️
Important Warnings • Never mix this solution with chemical drain cleaners • Avoid contact with eyes and skin • Keep the area well-ventilated • For persistent clogs, consider professional help
Why This Method Works 🎯
The combination of baking soda and vinegar creates a natural chemical reaction that produces carbon dioxide and water. This reaction, along with the fizzing action, helps to break down organic matter and push it through the pipes. The following hot water helps to flush everything away and restore proper drainage.
Additional Tips for Success
If the clog persists after the first attempt, you can: • Repeat the process once more • Use a plunger after the solution has sat for a few minutes • Try using a drain snake for stubborn clogs
Remember to maintain your drains regularly to prevent future clogs. Subscribe to "Natural Home Remedies" for more eco-friendly cleaning solutions and household tips! Don't forget to like this video and hit the notification bell to stay updated with our latest natural remedies. 🔔

As another handy laundry tip - you can use white vinegar to help get rid of the smell of actual cat piss. Detergent, hot water, and a quarter-cup of white vinegar in the load.
One of our cats used to love to pee in the dirty clothes hamper so I had to figure out real fast how to get the smell out.
Local house witch telling you to please learn basic housekeeping skills.
It’s not your fault if no one ever taught you but YouTube is a magical place and can teach you at your own pace.

took el gatito to the vet thursday for a shot, and she peed the carrier on the way back (yes, I should have a towel down, but like, she HATES the carrier, she hates the vet, she hates being out of control no matter how much I reassure her so I have to wrap her up in a towel and feed her feet first into the carrier while it's sitting upright and then lock it before she can spring out. she is thirteen years old and will never change. and she doesn't usually pee in inappropriate places!) anyway long story short my stupid dumb old lady kitten tracked her absolutely rank pee on my car seats due to my unwise choices and i didn't have any special juice so I scrubbed with old!Dawn and baking soda and vinegar and shopvacced it up bc I don't have a steam or hot water extractor thingy. and then my seats smelled like vinegar. so today I flushed 'em with plain water and vacuumed that up. Piss. not much. but i didn't want to give it a chance to stick around. so I soaked everything in the cat pee killing juice, waited, flushed and vacuumed THAT up. now the car smells like that stuff, which is like, a mild evergreen smell? so that's okay.
but the moral of the story here is that my car is from 2001 and I would be surprised if it ever got detailed before I got it, so, ever, at all, and when I emptied the shop vac, the water was soooooo gross. i've been sitting on that.
