Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | Advise on carpet spot cleaner? So i've been having a problem with my cat urinating on my couch. I am looking to buy a carpet spot cleaner that can be used on furniture as well. Does anyone have any suggestions? this things will be put to great use on my old basement apt carpet. Even tho i cleaned every accident that happened i'm sure there are still old stains from morgan having accidents and my old cat vomiting. edit: just realized i spelled the title wrong. should be advice not advise...

| I've had lots of opportunity to try out different spot cleaners (with an elderly pet and another who is incontinent, clean up is a regular thing around here). Recently, I tried this one from Petco and I've been really happy with the results! Good luck!

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Nature's Miracle, will get out all the protein in the urine that causes the smell, if any stain is left over, the aerosol can of Spot Shot called " Instant Carpet Stain Remover" works really well, and both can be used on furniture.

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | Tried them both! LOL Right now i have nature's miracle orange oxy power for cats. I should have been more clear in what i am looking for in my first post. I have spray products to clean with. What i am looking for is a cleaning machine like the bissell little green deep cleaner. which machine does the best job?

| I have the little green cleaning machine AND a full size Bissel steam cleaner. I prefer my full size cleaner by far! It does a much better job.

| I am also a fan of Nature's Miracle. I buy it in a 1-1/2 Gallon jug from petfooddirect.com when I am ordering food. Then I fill a smaller spray bottle. I even use this to pretreat my carpet before I steam clean. It works on just about anything but is especially good at the pee & vomit stains.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I have both too, and agree with this.

| I absolutely love my Bissell Spot Bot! I got the one specifically for pets, but I'm not sure what the difference (except the price) is. |

Does the full size steam cleaner have attachments to clean upholstery and stairs? which model do you have?

I did not like the Little Green Machine that well. It was fine if it was just an easy spot but they could be cleaned with a damp paper towels. I did not think it worked that well on true stains. I have not tried the one that you just put on the stain and it stays in place, scrubbing a circle. I've heard good and bad about those. But you can't go wrong with the Bissel steam cleaner -- but pay the extra for heat and self-propelled.

| I rented a cleaner from Lowes for the day. I cleaned the entire couch, then I covered the couch with a twin water proof mattress pad and a sheet on top of that. Now *when* Roxy decides to pee on the couch, it remains *safe* |

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | i have washable wee wee pads on the couch right now, plus a firm eye on the cat. i've been taking her to the bathroom with me so she can't pee when i am LOL

| I use the Bissell full size, ProHeat steamer, and it works great, also has attachments for doing stairs, upholstery etc. That works great on little spots also.
