any ideas on removing the smell of cat urine from a couch?? yuck!!?
Answers:
My husband and I bought a house that had many pets in it with the prevous owner. This owner was sometimes too lazy to clean cages and let the pets out to go to the bathroom.
We had smells everywhere and couldn't get rid of them. We talked to a home health care worker who told me they use a product called PUSH. We bought it at a party supply store but they sell it at janitorial stores. It is not dangerous, but must be used according to directions, or it will not work, because it is a living thing.
PUSH contains a bacteria that eats other bacteria. Bad bacterias are what cause the odor you are smelling. So, if you use it, it will eat the bacteria on the couch and the smell is gone. We put ours in a spray bottle. You can spray it on the couch. Once the bacteria is gone, so is the smell.
Then you just clean up the PUSH bacteria.
The only thing is that you have to use the PUSH the way it is directed on the back of the bottle or it won't work. Like, we had to spray it on our floor, let it sit for 20 minutes and then dab it up with a sponge. You could see the stuff working and it bubbled up, etc. It killed the pet odor smell.
This worker said they used it on an old woman's mattress who had bladder control issues and it actually turned black from eating all of the bacteria! But, she did say after they did it several times (The mattress was destroyed and had been urinated on for several months) the smell was completely dissipated.
Hope this helps.

At the pet store, they should have a product called Nature's Miracle. It has gotten rid of lots of pet smells for me!
stop blaming the cat and start using the can
If it's on a cushion, you need to wash the cushion. Trust me, just spraying stuff all over it won't take the smell out. You need to wash it. I've had cats all my life, I know these things.
Try Capture carpet cleaner. More info at their website below. They do have a pet stain/odor neutralizer. Works well. Take cat to vet -- there may be a urinary or temperament problem.
yes it is called urine gone and you can get it at walgreens,or wait and see the ad on tv .I know from personal experience that it really works..
