Is there any way I can get rid of the smell of old cat wee from an upholstered chair?

chair is inherited and very comfy but a cat peed on it at some stage and I can smell it every time I sit in the chair. I've tried various odour neutralising sprays to no avail, I've send the cushion off for dry cleaning but the smell is clinging to the fabric of the chair itself. There must be some way I can get rid of it?! The cat has been gone for a number of years now so it's 4- to 5-year-old pee Blush

Biological washing powder. Pour it onto the fabric and mix with water so it's like a paste and then scrub and rinse! Works wonders on cat urine

There’s dedicated wee cleaner that you can buy... like this www.petsathome.com/shop/en/pets/simple-solution-urine-destroyer#

Thanks v much, both - I have tried one ‘pet odour neutraliser’ product which seems to have had zero effect so will try the biological washing powder route next.
