| I generally use a liquid enzyme cleaner, which is probably more or less
what you
used. however, my vet also carries something that comes in a spray
bottle which is wonderful for removing the last traces of odor from
carpets. I foprget its name, but it comes in a small white cylinder
type bottle.... It smells ozoney for a few minutes until it dries.

| I've used the liquid enzyme cleaners, too. They will work, but only
if you follow the direction to keep the area wet--i.e., keep soaking it
with the cleaner, so the enzymes can do their work. Also, you might
want to consider rearranging things so that a piece of furniture or
something sits on that spot (once you've taken care of the smell), to
prevent the cat from using that spot again. I have a number of large
plants in pots that sit on the floor, and I had a lot of problems with
my cats digging in the dirt and trying to use it as a litter box, UNTIL
I hit on the idea of putting large stones on top of the soil around the
plant. It's still easy to water, but discourages the cats.

5015.3 | White Vineagar and Baking Soda | MIVC::MTAG | | Wed Oct 16 1991 15:58 | 10 |
| This past summer, Barney had a urinary tract infection and at times,
could not control his bladder. This happened on our bed. Before my
husband found out, I stripped the bed and soaked the laundry in
detergent and white vineagar. I then used the white vineagar on the
bed along with baking soda. This seemed to work because last time I
stripped the bed (recently) I could not smell a thing, and my husband
never knew! I'm not saying this always works, but this time for me it
did.

| The name of the spray I mentioned is Elimin-Odor.

| Another suggestion to use in big plant pots to discourage cats
from trying to use this as a litterbox is to place pine cones
on top of the soil.
I have used the same pine cones for over a year...and haven't
had a problem since.
