The grout is porous, But you may be able to seal it against liquids.
I am going to have it ripped up and replaced with ceramic tile because it is non-porous. BTW, the kitty disappeared eventually. I loved her, but hated her bad habits which I tried everything to break with no success.[/quote]

I'd be happy with a wood floor in there which is what we will do if we tear out the carpet but is that what we need to do or can I get it out?
Thanks in advance for your help.

My cat sometimes gets an "attitude" and the best product I have found to get rid of the odor is called Zero Odor. Before I could only find it online, but now I think they sell it at PetCo. It's a little pricey, but it really does get out the odor.

I got a blacklight to help but I knew where most of the problems were. And we were starting to get pretty bad :-(
I had tried a lot of other remedies but this is the 1st that took away ALL the odor.
After all those kitties were gone and we were getting new carpet I sprayed it again on the subfloor just because I had extra really because there was no longer any odor even putting your nose on the wood LOL

NATURES MIRACLE is truly a miracle product! I have six cats so there will be an occasional 'oops'. It is so worth it!!! I have also used Oxyclean diluted in hot water in my carpet cleaner.

Nature's Miracle works, and I really like Kids n Pets from Walmart (my local grocer carries it also)... I used the Kid's n Pets on a couch my elderly mom "marked" almost daily. We couldn't afford a new sofa...so I drenched the cushions...squeezing the stuff front to back on the cushions. Has some alcohol in it, so dried over night...smell never returned.
The thing to remember with either type...you have to drench the area...not just spray...I opened the bottle and poured it on.

I'm a lifelong cat owner and swear by Stink Free. If you google it you can find it online however stores like Petpros and Petsmart carry it. If you look on line they have a formula for hardwood floors and their product is guaranteed.
