A *#&@$* neighborhood cat got in my truck last night and sprayed the seats real good. I don't hate cats, but if I knew which one it was, he/she would die of acute lead poisoning. Luckily I had pretty good seat covers on them, and took them off, but I still need to clean the cab good. There is still a slight smell left. I also would like to clean my seat covers, because they are expensive ones and work very well. Anybody ever had this happen? How did you deal with it? Any good products to use? Thanks

Place a newspaper on the passengers floorboard, and dump a pound of fresh ground coffee on it. Leave it in the sun with windows rolled up. Coffee will absorb nasty smells.

Any pet store should have a product that uses an enzyme to remove urine odors.

How did a cat get in your truck? That’s what I wanna know? Around here it’s cold enough to keep the windows closed and the doors shut! If Kentucky is that warm, how about sending some heat a little northeast!😀 Reon

They make an ozonics deal that plugs into your cigarette lighter. Maybe that would help? Could be handy for hunting as well.

Spray with scent killer like the kind sold by wildlife research and see if it really works.

There is a product called Odo-Ban, sold at Sam's Club and other places. Works real good on such.

The cab of my truck used to smell like poozy occasionally, but I knew exactly how the skank got in there- - - -usually getting a "ride home" from the local beer joint!

An ozone generator will kill the smells. They can be bought for under $100. Run an extension cord to it, let it run for half an hour. Leave the cab closed up for a couple of hours, then air it out very thoroughly. Problem solved.
Be not weary in well doing.

How did a cat get in your truck? Stupidity. I left the widow down too far, which I never do, but it only takes once.

How did you deal with it? Caught a tomcat up on my tool box spraying the back window of my pickup one evening. He'd sprayed it several times before, but I couldn't resist with him teed up on the toolbox like he was. The aftermath of a 55gr V-Max was harder to clean. But worth it. Good luck getting the smell out.

You had a cat piss your underwear? Exactly what were you doing with that cat?
I had a nervous/frightened dog pee on my driver's seat a few years ago. I soaked the seat in pet urine killer and let it dry. Seemed to work, but then my sniffer is not all that good after years of being around bleach and other strong chemicals. But my wife, who has quite an imaginative smeller doesn't complain, so I'd recommend trying that. The ozone thing maybe for followup.

My wife put a leaky can of gasoline in the rear passenger floorboard of my brand new Lexus (took me 60yrs to get to this point!) Had it detailed, still smell gasoline. I took a box of powdered Laundry Detergent and poured it directly on the carpet, rubbed it in and left it a few days. Vacuumed it out. Laundry fresh after that! Any really good smelling detergent will do.

I had a similar situation, ultimately solved it with Pine-Sol and windows slightly down in a hot Oklahoma summer.
