Help!! Dried Cat Poo problem

All this week the dining room has been loaded with boxes and mattresses waiting for DH's day off to put the new beds together.

During this time the cat has crept into a corner that I couldn't see and had an attack of the squits on my new cream carpet, I thought I could smell something funny but couldn't see it :( Only trouble is it has now dried into the carpet and I don't know how to get it out without leaving a nasty brown stain on my lovely cream carpet :(

Any ideas anyone please?

    Try some Shout laundry stain remover. It works on our cat sick stains when everything else fails. If it doesn't get all the stain out in one go, keep applying and wiping with a damp cloth until it does.
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    Try a steam cleaner? As well after the "Shout". And a cork for the cat!

    Scrape what you can up, trying not to spread it, then sponge with a solution of warm water and a few drops of ammonia.

    Vanish always works for any type of carpet stain
    use the one for carpets and upholstery

  • I had the same think happen on my living room carpet, i did notice it right away though so it hadn't dried in but i removed all the stain with vanish mousse with you work into the carpet with a sponge. My carpet is a very pale green so may not work as well on cream though, good luck.
