This worked great!! I have 3 cats and they tend to throw up a lot, and we just moved into a house with cream-colored carpet. This worked better to some of the pet stain removers I have bought! Took the recipe to my mom's when I visited and used on her cat stains too. Will use often! Made for I Recommend.

I cannot thank you enough for this recipe. Here is a wonderful horror story for you. DH and I purchased a cabin sized tent. Set it up for overnight guests. Whole 9 yards. decor, lighting, romance and comfort, clear to a rocking chair; (military couple transferring cross country). When they left it was raining. Brought in linens to wash. Mean time, 'monster-t.-cat' apparently brought in and ate his fill of a dead squirrel. Started to rain again. Ran out and made sure all clear. Three days later, the tent was dry and weather clear for me to finish cleaning/taking down. When i opened that door...ugh! He had done the deed under a corner table. Tried every thing...My DH had to 'remove' the remains. There was hair and ...glued to the floor...Tried every thing to get it clean /oder free. Course I should have come straight to Zaar. But I didn't. So today i found your recipe. Made a double batch just in case. Dumped it on the floor, covered in paper towels, left for 10 mins. GONE! All that anguish for nothing. Thank you ever so much! Now all i have do is finish up, take the tent down and I will be 'a happy camper'...:)

Finally...a cleaner for pet mishaps that works and doesn't take a lot of elbow grease. I scaled this down to a fourth because I didn't have a lot of spots to use it on. I used Dawn dish soap and store brand baking soda and it worked great. Thanks for this great recipe. I'm going to share it with all my pet loving friends. Made for Fall 2009 PAC. Update: This recipe is in my Top Favorites of 2009 Cookbook.

We used it on the mattress of my son cause sometimes in the night he forgets to go to the bathroom ;) It was really wet yesterday and this morning we had to clean it. And we did it with this stain/odor remover. I had another dish soap and it worked. We left it on the mattress maybe 6 hours. It smells great and I think the odor is gone. At least, we didn't smell it. That's good. Thanks brenda :) Made for I Recommend tag game

This recipe also works for our furry family members when they have tackled with the Pepé Le Pew's(skunks) but you do need to change one ingredient. Instead of using Joy dish soap you use Dawn dish soap & it seems to get the smell out a whole lot better. Follow the same directions & reapply if needed. Takes 2-4 baths normally to get all smells gone. You can also use tomato juice V8 to help out with the smell.
