Try 3 parts water and 1 part vinegar. It works great for skunk smell. We had a dog that wasn't the smartest around skunks. We used it many times and worked every time.

try prexoide and baking soda. Use it in a hidden area first to be sure it wont stain your carpet.

Go to Petco and get some Nature's Miracle. It will get rid of the stain and odor

How did you take out the cat?

I'm glad you brought it up Chris. I didn't want to ask. But inquiring minds want to know.

Vinegar and water is the best. You can do the natures miracle but will be more expensive. I wouldn't use peroxide cuz that will bleach the carpet. Good luck!

These pet urine odor removers work. Get a small bottle at the pet shop.

Once you’ve located the urine, you need to remove it as soon as possible. Most cat urine odor removers sold at pet stores take advantage of enzymes that hasten the breakdown of urea the main chemical component of cat pee.
Enzymes are simply proteins that speed up chemical reactions. In other words, the enzymes break up the urea into carbon dioxide and ammonia, two gases that evaporate rather quickly. So the cat pee is gone before it gets any chance of turning nasty. The only problem with cleaning agents containing enzymes is their limited shelf life. Enzymes lose their effectiveness with time

Product called TkoOrange., this stuff really works. The only orange extract product I would recommend, as a odor remover I have never found anything to compare, this is a pet owners best friend. I originally tried it as a cleaning agent but after reading about the odor eliminating uses I mixed up a little in a spray bottle and put in the boat. The stuff takes the sardine smell right off your hands or anything else you get that nasty fish bait on. I rarely bait fish anymore but for those who do, get some of this stuff. They have a website just google the name. I have nothing to do with their company, just very satisfied customer.

I'd use a Dobyns 806 swimbait rod, and an 8/0 hook, with a steel leader, and go shark fishing with Mr. Kitty.

Silly kitty always jumps off the paddy and tries to swim home right when the tax man is around...

Take your flourescent blacklight from night fishing adventures and search around the boat. (in the dark.)

The urine will light up and show you where to clean. If you clean or rinse the boat first it will erase the evidence and you will miss where you need to concentrate your efforts.

Be sure to check under the consoles, not just the deck area.
