Cleaning and animal experts- How would you get cat piss out of leather seats?

[LeftyMom]

The window of my sister's car was stuck rolled down last night, and even though we have a perfectly good garage, she left it in the driveway like that. :eyes:

Amazingly enough, her car was still there this morning. I'm guessing the smell left by the cat that slept in it scared any would-be thieves away. :puke:

1. I can't remember the name of it

but I got it at my local chain grocery store (HEB). It's in a white bottle with a yellow label and about $7, but worth it. Gosh, "Pet....", I really can't remember. My SO left his leather couch in a friend's garage and her cats used it as a litter box for about 3 months-piss, shit, the works. This stuff worked wonders.

Maybe cross-post in the "Pets" group.

2. I would check out Nature's Miracle.

I don't know if it works on leather, but it works great to de-stink linoleum. :hi:

3. Simple Green or Odoban

Simple Green:
Mix it yourself from the big jug at a lesser concentration than they recommend into a spray bottle. The seats aren't the problem. The treated leather shouldn't *absorb* the piss. It's the carpet and headliner ('vert, right?). Spray liberally. Let sit. Spray liberally again. Scrub in (not to foaming, but work it in really well). Let sit. Scrub out with a towel. Be aggressive. Spray again, let sit. Use a shop vac or car wash vac to vacuum it all out.

Odoban:
Use as directed. Hide face after having had to buy this at Sam's Club.

Seriously...Simple Green removed 10 hours worth of accumulated chicken shit (from 70 chickens) from the back of an XTerra. Took less than a couple hours work.

5. You know they sell the gallon jugs at hardware stores too, right?

Yes, my idjit sister left her convertible mercedes in the driveway with the window down. We've had four cars stolen from our driveway, she's damned lucky not to have made that number five. :eyes:

[flvegan]

6. Gallon jugs of...?

Simple Green? Yes. Odoban? No.

Your sister is hawt, so she has that going for her.

Not as hawt as you, though.

[LeftyMom]

7. Yes Simple Green, never heard of the other stuff.

It gets worse. Her fucking car insurance lapsed at midnight because she hasn't bothered to pay them (not a money issue, Dad pays it, she just has to take it up the road to the office or call it in and pay with her bank card.) :eyes: I took care of it, but in her utter brilliance if she donates the spoiledbratmobile to the local chop shop, I'd like to make sure we get a check to get her another car.

PS Dad is actually seriously thinking about getting her a motorcycle. :eyes:

8. I love you, but your

family sometimes hurts my brain.

[LeftyMom]

9. Yeah, me too.

To be fair, my sister still makes more sense than your brother. But your mom sounds cool.

[flvegan]

10. Yeah, well your sister is HAWT!!!!!!

Gimme an "f" gimme an "l" gimme a "v-e-gan"

[LeftyMom]

11. She thinks you're weird. You might have a shot with her bf though.

Check your PM in a minute, okay?

[flvegan]

12. She wants me.

We should talk about that. You know...sisters, n' stuff.

[LeftyMom]

13. Eeew. Shut up.

Okay, I checked, and she says "he's cute for his age."

Ouch. :rofl:

[flvegan]

15. And how old are you?

I'm cute for her/your/my age. She's being polite.

It's okay. You're much hotter than she is, regardless. Regardless, and in every sense and regard.

Shit, that's gotta hurt a younger sister.

[LeftyMom]

20. I can't picture you her age.

When I get down there to visit, I'm totally going to have to get your Mom to get out the photo albums. Moms love to do that and I'd love to see what you looked like back when you were a young'n.

[Critters2]

14. You've had four cars stolen from your driveway?!!

You either have really good cars or a really bad neighborhood! Me, I'd move. But then I drive a Ford Focus, so I'd know it wasn't the car.

[LeftyMom]

18. Well, one of them wasn't ours (a then new '89 Camaro belonging to my godfather)

one was my Dad's new Harley back when there was a two year wait list to get one and you'd still pay over sticker, and the other two (a '74 Camaro and my sister's old '86 Civic SI, twice for the Civic) were quickly recovered when the thieves discovered that my Dad sucks at auto maintainance and left them within a few blocks of our house.

[Critters2]

19. LOL!!! nt

4. A male cat sprayed in my Jeep Renegade.

The odor lasted for YEARS. I finally just took the top off permanently, because, otherwise, anytime anyone got in the Jeep, they said, "What is that SMELL?"

Nothing I tried got rid of it. Except time.

16. Try vinegar

It helps to neutralize the odor.

[Critters2]

17. I thought about this. I use vinegar for EVERYTHING

but wondered if it might be too acidic for the leather. I don't own any leather, so wouldn't know how vinegar affects it.

21. Buy some of that biological enzime pet spot cleaner. That should newtralize the smell.

Only a guess. But worth a try.
