People who hate cats and are cruel to them will be cruel to people too. It's nothing to be proud of. It's a shame.
My wife saw three adorable little blue eyed Persian kittens yesterday. She'd've brought them home if we weren't about to go on vacation. They're being fed, though. |

I don't hate cats but I get along much better with dogs for some reason. They dig me, and I dig them. Woof. Every time I walk dwn the street and pass the coffee shop in my neighborhood, where people hang out with their dogs every week-end, it just makes my day.
I'm with Yaris Hilton. Generally, I don't trust / respect people who don't respect animals. To the OP; how is the smell coming along? Is it fading any yet? |

Call up your local crime scene clean-up guys. They're stench and stain removal specialists.

I haven't seen an update on if you de-stinkified the seat yet, but I removed the passenger seat cushion from Crashy, when I took the seat apart to monkey with the occupant classification system. The cushion comes off fairly easily (there are a bunch of plastic clips along the bottom that hold the sides down). Once removed, the only part that is glued is the top surface (all four sides are free) and the top separates very easily from the foam.

So you mean, maybe she could just replace the foam, not the whole seat? you know that's really good info. I'm following the thread with interest because spilling things on seat can happen VERY EASILY. |

I've had a cat pee on a couch, and cleaned it by just hosing down the cushion foam & cover. In my case, I was able to do it while it was fresh (still wet), so I didn't even need any soap. I set both out in the sun to dry after squeezing out the water and everything was OK. |

Yes- I fit in it.

Maybe the cat was a Honda fan ?
![]() Cat pee is tough. I have seen contractors have to remove carpet, padding AND the floorboards to get rid of it. Just when you think it is gone, you will get in your car on a hot day, and it will be back. BTW, just because somebody hates cats doesn't mean they are mean to people, or other animals, or are destined to be serial killers. Come on people!

Hating cats is fine. It's a free country, lots of different opinions. Acting on it is probably not OK, though. I think that's all people are trying to say. ![]() I think the posters saying "cat pees, cat out the window" were joking, at least I took it that way and had a laugh, but there were other threads where people mentioned that drivers would go out of their way on the road to kill whatever was crossing the road, for fun. that ain't cool my 2 c! Peace

Unless anyone in here is this a-hole: http://www.twincities.com/stpaul/ci_...nclick_check=1, you've got nothing to worry about.
Also, I found this review on Amazon about Auto Vaccine ... so hey, if it worked for this guys fish scented Bently, why not a cat piss Yaris? lol " 0 of 1 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Auto Vaccine is AMAZING!!!, January 27, 2009 By M. Manning - See all my reviews (REAL NAME) Auto Vaccine is AMAZING!!! I am in the Classic Auto Upholstery Restoration business now for 30 years. I literally get some of the most rotten foul smelling cars on a regular basis. Auto Vaccine was recommended to me from a friend on the police force who uses it for their K9 transports. Since then I have used Biocide System's Auto Vaccine to successfully remove cigarette odor, mold and mildew odor, skunk odor, gas odor, and even upholstery glue odor. I just received a $3000.00 tip from a very high profile client. I have customized seven cars for him. He brought in a brand new Bentley that I had customized three months back. He went on an overnight sailing trip. He accidentally left a window partly open when he parked his car at the Marina. Some kids thought it would be funny to through their fish caught off the dock into the window. When he got back there wear for rotting fish and fish guts all over the back passengers seat. This is now one of the worst smelling cars I have ever worked on. Luckily there was no discoloration on the leather seats but the smell was putrid. He was expecting to have to completely reupholster the car but did not want to go through his insurance if at all possible. So he came to me for an estimate. I felt very bad for him knowing how much he had just spent on the car. I asked him to leave the car for two days to see what I could do. It took two treatments of two Biocide System's Auto Vaccine. A grand total of four units and the car was odor free and completely decontaminated in less than 24 hours! AMAZING!!! That is a grand total of $79.80 plus shipping. When he asked how much I told him it was on the house. Needless to say I have a very happy and extremely loyal customer who wrote me a $3000.00 check on the spot as a token of thanks. FYI The police officer who recommended it to me suggested I only get it from SMM Distributors or directly from the Biocide Systems web site. They are the only ones carrying the "Biocide System's Auto Vaccine". The label on the pouch should say Biocide Systems on it and is silver. If it doesn't say Biocide Systems its not. It should also come with a money back guarantee. If you are in the Auto detailing Biz or in need of eliminating odors or just sanitizing your car, I highly recommend this product. 5 stars all the way!!" http://www.amazon.com/Biocide-System.../dp/B001H8VLFC |

Also, we use Natures Miracle from Petsmart in our carpet cleaner with regular carpet shampoo and it makes our carpet smell brand-freakin new again. We have a disabled dachshund that doesn't know when he uses the bathroom and when his belly bands slip off, we will have a trail of dachshund dribble down the carpet ... it isn't pleasant. The Natures Miracle has exceeded my expectations of a urine remover 110% becuase we have tried a LOT of products to try to keep from having to fork over our damage deposit/replace the carpet in our apartment.

I'm not really a bad guy. I'm usually nice to cats, dogs and even children. Believe it or not I've even been nice to old people a few times. I don't laugh at the misfortunes of others. BUT DAMNIT TO HELL MAN I CAN'T SEE A TOPIC ENTITLED "HELP! My cat peed in my front seat :(" and not laugh just a little. I don't mean to, it just happens.
Now I know that I wouldn't be laughing if it was my car and I really do feel bad for the op (once the laughter subsides). Someone please kill me, I probably deserve it. |

It's not a crime to hate cats. I learned to hate them when we got up to 6 of them. Took awhile to fix that situation....

Oh yeah! A coworker of mine rescued a musk turtle one morning on the way to work and found out the hard way where their name came from. His Mazda 626 stunk for months.
