Getting the smell of cat pee out of sofa cushions

Brie

baking soda/Bicarb is the universal smell remover which might work for you. But cats might still smell something and return to the scene of the crime. Dosing with tonic water should deter them. (dosing the sofa not the cat, well it would likely work on the cat but you know they would get you back at some point like peeing in your slipper at 2 am - don't ask me how I know)

I have the same problem. I use Simple solution platinum urine blaster from pets at home, £10.00 so not cheep.
It smells like baby talc
I have also just used a carpet cleaner and cleaned thoroughly. All smells gone
Good luck

Simply use bicarbonate of soda. It's very chap and safe to use for many household cleaning jobs.
Sprinkle the bi-carb liberally on the coushion and try to get it to penetrate the item. Use any available air-blowing gadget to help the bicarbonate to penetrate for best results. Leave it for 24 hours and vacuum off. Repeat up necessary.
An Internet search will reveal hundreds of other household uses of this much underrated substance.

Hi, I bought some surgical spirit in Boots and put it into a spray bottle. Worked treat as there's no amonia in it unlike bleach. Cheap and cheerful. X

Bicarbonate of soda is good for getting rid of smells.

Rub in dry, leave for a day & vacuum off.

Bicarbonate of soda is alkaline. Just like cat pee.

Hello Get yourself some bicarbonate of soda (DriPak do one for about £1 for a 250g box that is cleaning quality not cooking quality- I get mine from Savers). Sprinkle it liberally over the affected cushions, leave for 10mins then scrub well in with a dry scrubbing brush. Don't wet it. Cover the cushions with an old sheet or old towels or something, leave it overnight then hoover it all off in the morning.

Cat pee is acid whilst bicarb is alkaline so it ought to really help. It will neutralise rather than just mask the smell and you don't need to wet it like I say. I've done the same thing on my carpets if I've had to. You might want to do it two nights running.

Nature's Miracle doesn't always work for me though. One of my 2 cats (both neutered males) had taken to painting all of my walls, furniture, and anything else he could reach. I was horrified when I got a UV light. He never did that in all of the 9 years I've had him and didn't when I got him a buddy (they love each other and did so right away) but when a strange black cat started showing up outside both of my cats went nuts and the older one (9) started his wall painting, as well as the curtains out in the kitty room. I couldn't keep up with it.

My cats are indoor cats so it's not like the stray is actually going to get in here but they both hate him (and he is weird...my neighbor's cats hate him too). I've tried cleaning with a pet urine enzyme and then spraying some "No More Spraying" but that hasn't worked.

He's a sneaky little !!!!!! too; he waits until he thinks I'm not looking and then does it. He's learned that the minute I see him backing his butt up to something he gets yelled at.

It wasn't until I found "Cat Spraying No More" that I was able to finally get rid of this tiresome behavior. Now my house nor my ropes don't smell like a litter box anymore
