Help! My *$$% Cat knocked over my quilt and peed on it!

This has probably been solved ,but for future refrence the only thing that gets skunk spray out of the dogs is
a mixture of peroxide,baking soda and dish soap. works like a charm on my dogs who get sprayed at least once a year. I spent a small fortune on odor removers for the dogs only to find they still smelled , and would continue to smell bad when it rained . I have used this combo and they were able to come back in the house as soon as they were dry! I don't know why it wouldnt work on other odors.
Of course I would test it first on scrap as H202 can fade some things.
I don't recall the measurements but you can find it on line, I had it stored on my old computer.

Depends diaper on a cat????? I don't think it'll stay on for more than a couple minutes before they will have it all shredded off!! LOL, but seriously can't figure out whay they do that....mine has done it a couple times on those plastic grocery bags if left on tile floor! Hope you're able to get the smell out though.

Since it appears that MANY of us have cats, I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions? The quilt in question is the one in my picture. I appreciate any help!
is time to let it live outside so it can pee anywhere it wants to.
I have 2 black cats and they are 2 years old.I love them,but if they peed on the quilt I was working on, they would be sitting on the porch looking in.

I had one of my cats spray/pee on one of my quilts. I figured it was ruined anyway so I washed it real well (it had dried by time I realized it) with regular soap. It came out just fine and obviously it all came out because there are 5 other cats here and no one else ever peed on it. As anyone with cats know, they can't help but pee on something they smell from another cat- at least that has been my experience. Since I knew it was there and it bothered me, I washed it a couple more times and we have never had any other problems and no more peeing- thank goodness!

I'll be following this to see how it turns out. Maybe you could trim off the corner and somehow repair it??? Or maybe it if is small enough of an area you could trim all 4 corners equally to balance it out?
A fundraiser quilt I made once was on display at an assisted living facility and their dog peed on it but I know dog urine isn't as bad as kitty urine. Before they told me what happened they washed it in hot water (aaaaahhhhh!!) but fortunately it turned out fine. Whew!
Best of luck with this!

When we were on vacation once, the cat sitter locked our kitty out of her litter area. Came home to an awful pee problem and the carpet was new!! I used the information at this site and it is now completely gone!!! It did take several applications, but that was for carpet and padding. I don't know what the 3% peroxide would do. Do you have a scrap of the fabric left to test on? If it discolors the fabric, try just the vinegar and baking soda steps. Good luck. Cat pee is truly difficult to remove, but this worked for us.
