After all the comments. NO AMMONIA, NO VINEGAR, We want to use "Natures Miracle", "Oxy Clean" etc. Well after the urine odor has been cleaned to your satisfaction wait until area is completely dry and sprinkle with baking soda, large box found in laundry department. I have a handicapped cat and from time to time he gets himself down on the floor and has to pee a little. I did not know this was happening until I started smelling "The Smell" The procedure we have used seems to have worked. ; ) My best to all you cat loving, peeing on the carpet, frustrated....Please....get rid of that smell....I want to have company. Even tho I don't know you we
share the same plight....Again, My best to all of you
He's cute & all but he doesn't have cats. If he did he wouldn't be using ammonia. That belongs in the litter box. Cat urine is ammonia based. Duh. One whiff of that mixture and the cat would be peeing all over it.

First of all, pet urine is comprised of bacteria which cause the staining and the odor. Second of all, that odor has some of the same chemical compounds that are found in ammonia. Cats & Dogs both instinctively pee where they smell they have marked before. So, essentially if you are laying down ammonia in your carpet or on your flooring, and animals pee where they smell urine (or the same compounds - which are found in ammonia), you are basically reinforcing to your pet that this is where they should pee. This is even acknowledged by the humane society on their website. What are you thinking even telling people that this is ok???? It's NOT. And liquid detergent???? What is wrong with you. You need to use a cleaner that will kill the bacteria and germs that cause the stains and odors. You should be using Genesis 950 because it does just that. In doing so, by killing the bacteria, it deodorizes and in addition to removing the smell and stain, stops your pet from going there again. This article is chalk full of horrid advice that will only bring more frustration to pet owners. I am thoroughly disgusted.

My friend's house floored me when I walked in from the cat urine smells. ARGH! SO, I went to PetSmart, purchased the 2 1/2 gallon (or so) jug and voila! That stuff was a miracle! I couldn't smell the cat urine again! Thank goodness-- it was also my rental unit!

November 27 2011 at 6:24 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyWhen removing pet urine (cat or dog) from carpeting. I have found the best way is in using a good carpet shampooer that sucks up the liquid throughly. Start with pouring water directly on the area and around it as it will spread,especially underneath the carpet into the padding. If the spot has dried before hand allow it to "wake up" the urine, and then vacuum up the water/urine area.
The next step would be using an Oxy-clean product and puring that solution on the same area as the watered area. Allowing this to set on the carpet for a good 15-20 minutes. You will begin to smell the urine, which means the product is working. After vacumming this portion , use either another round of plain water, or Pet Cleaning solution as you prefer. Read below about the futility of using any Amonia product which will make it worse.
I know this sounds like (and is) a long process, however it is the only one I have found to work completely. Thank you for alowing to add another stain removing idea.
I herd after you get the stain out if you spray vinigar on the spot your pet will not return to it.

Never use ammonia, it smells like the pee.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. NEVER use vinegar or ammonia for pet stains. They both have the same chemical compounds as those found in urine. That scent could attract your animal to go in that spot again as they would relate the smell of vinegar or ammonia to their urine. Where do people hear this nonsense????
