Our young male cat "sprayed" my son's mattress. How do we get rid of that
smell?

Thanks.

Take it outside in the sun for several hours and spray it with
Fabreeze.  If the mattress is more then 3 years old, replace it.  Find
a new home for the cat.

I'd try an enzyme cleaner like "Nature's Miracle", available from a
petshop, first.  Second, I'd replace the mattress if that didn't work,
and lastly, the cat would get fixed!

I agree. An enzyme cleaner will work best since that is what it is
designed to do. It has to soak down as deep as the urine did, so don't
be stingy! There are many brands on the market. I find that "Out!," which
I buy at Wal-Mart, works fine. (I have five dogs and five cats!)

Have the cat neutered and that may stop the spraying. No guarantee. But
have him neutered anyway. If the spraying continues, look into buying a
product called Feliway. You could start using it now, actually.

Great advice from all! Thanks!
And the cat will be fixed very soon...
He showed up here two days before Christmas and was starving. Been here ever
since. Very cute cat. So he's a keeper.

take a clean new sponge and rub it on teh urine stain

use what every otehrs talk about

take the sponge

and puyt it somewhaer in your house

the cat will now only go there

if you are comfortable apply afew drops of your urine in the bedroom

cat will not spray tehre again

spraying is teritorial

yu are telling the cat
say away
