Getting rid of cat pee on mattress/bed clothes

2 Answers  |  Asked By: daisy326   21   

My boyfriend accidently locked my cat away from her litterbox and when I came home a few hours later she had peed on the guest bed mattress and bed clothes. Is there a specific product or formula that’s good at spot cleaning and at washing in a washing machine? I have a guest coming next week and I’d like to get rid of the smell asap.
Thanks!

I would dose the area WELL with Nature\\\’s Miracle so that it actually runs through the mattress to a pan below. You may have to dose the area a couple of times, remove the NM, then dose again. Mattresses are not easy but if you can get a rug shampoo machine that sucks the water back up, it will make the clean up much easier. Or a Wet/Dry vac. They sell small ones that work great. If you can get the mattress outside, it\\\’s much easier and will dry faster.

I had a couch cushion that a cat peed on. I took it outside and used a garden hose to force water into the cushion to flush out the urine. Then I dosed it with almost a gallon of NM because of the foam in the cushion. Then let it dry in the sun. It took the smell completely out and no cat ever marked that area again.

Don\\\’t use vinegar, ammonia or any other cleaning product that isn\\\’t designed to clean up cat urine.

As for the bed clothes, dose the area well letting the NM run through the urine spot on the bedding, then wash in the washing machine.

Good luck!

I\\\’ve heard distilled vinegar will, but I\\\’ve never tried it.
