mother effing cats!!!!
wtf? i have to park at work in an outdoor environment (new job) and i had a cat "spray" my windshield the other day, resulting in a god awful stench inside my truck, since it dripped down into the air intake for the cabin. wtf can i do to get rid of this fucking stench? i seriously hate cats. i tried spraying lysol into the intake, but it didn't work. Aug 17 17 09:05 pm Link have you tried peroxide and bicarb (baking soda)? google: getting out skunk smell Aug 17 17 10:10 pm Link The longer it sits the more set AND worse the smell becomes, act fast! Immediate term till you get to a pet supply store, pour lots of regular white vinegar down the same spot. Yes, your truck will smell like cat piss AND vinegar, but the acetic acid will begin neutralizing the alkaline salts in the piss immediately, then the vinegar smell dissipates taking the cat piss smell with it. EVEN BETTER. Get thee to a pet supply store and get a small jug of cat piss smell removing enzymes. Same deal, just pour it in, no other options. Most brands smell pretty good, so it's be a mix of piss and mild perfume for a while. Do this soon because as it ages chemical decomp will release mercaptans, ie skunk smell. Good luck. Aug 17 17 10:12 pm Link Cats always win!!! The enzymes work well. I got a great deal on a car partly because the interior reeked of dog. Enzymes ate the stink. Took a couple applications, had to remove the back seat and enzyme the underside of things. Welll worth the trouble. Aug 17 17 11:14 pm Link thanks, i'll try the enzymes thing. Aug 18 17 05:34 am Link My cats are my best friends, though they have both been fixed so no spraying. Male unneutered cats apparently do that to mark territory. Or at least that's what I've heard. White vinegar might work. Aug 18 17 09:36 am Link I agree with the enzymes suggestion, but after running that through, you'll want to change your cabin air filter and spray/wipe down your inside vents with the enzymes as well. Personally, I would spray my whole interior with the enzymes... the carpet, the mats, the seats, any fabric door panels and then leave the car in bright sunlight with the windows down to dry it. When you turned your car on, it likely spread throughout the cabin. Aug 18 17 09:51 am Link The cat has given you a message. He hates you! Aug 18 17 10:26 am Link Nature's Miracle will take it out - enzymes. Use lots of it, it has to contact the urine to be effective. It also has a fairly heavy sent of it's own so you'll want to air out the truck after you use it.

Aug 18 17 09:46 pm Link Shadow Dancer wrote: haha, i hear you. i could give you one story where that was quite self evident, but i'll spare you. but that involved humans. this stench is not only palpable, but it's horrendous. and the worst part is coming from a fresh air environment into the cabin of this truck (in summer, which exacerbates it).

I still smell things sometimes that are not in my current surroundings, like the wind blowing over the fields filled with flats of raisons in the Central Valley of California. Aug 19 17 12:20 am Link Amazing stuff----- produced by " Natural Chemistry" Their Stain & Odor Eliminator // firm was located in Norwalk CT 06854 phone 800-668-7760 but many pet stores may have similar product. Ebay has many suggestions, too !!!!!!

Aug 19 17 08:43 am Link Hydrogen Peroxide, Baking Soda and Dawn Dishwashing Liquid (blue kind) work wonders on skunk spray and most other animal spray odors. The Dawn breaks down the oils and allows the chemical reaction caused by the Hydrogen Peroxide and Baking Soda to bind an oxygen to the animal spray, rendering it odorless. After a few minutes, rinse it all away. Aug 20 17 05:21 pm Link A few companies make car foggers/bombs. You set them off inside your car with the AC running on recirculate. They clean the whole hvac and inside of the car. Takes about a half hour. Are you sure someone at work didn't prank you? Cats spray to mark territory. They usually go for corners and fixed objects. To spray a windshield is really weird. Aug 21 17 02:55 am Link GK photo wrote: He marked your vehicle. It was in his territory. Aug 21 17 05:55 am Link Robb Mann wrote: Ooooh evil!! Liquid ass?

Sep 03 17 09:42 pm Link There are several good products all designed to kill the smell - ask at a pet store or pet aisle Normal things not aimed at cat pee will not be strong enough to overcome an intact feral male spray. Take comfort in the fact you must exude a very manly smell - he was attracted to compete with you!!! Sep 19 17 11:55 pm Link Only source for this is a morgue, pathologist, or mortuary, it is called Skunk Off. When I worked at MD Anderson in Houston the autopsy would have a few patents who exhibited an intense odor upon opening the body cavity. One to two drops and ALL odor was gone. It lasted about 10 hours. It was in a small white dropper bottle with a black skunk like Pepe la Pew chancier on the front (for the old darkroom people, it looked just like a dropper bottle of LFN).
