DH keeps banging on about the living room smelling of urine. I keep getting a strong wiff of it too but I don’t know where it’s coming from!! I’ve sniffed the rug and the sofa, the smell is coming from this area but no obvious source. It’s driving me mad. I don’t know what he expects me to do if we don’t know where it’s coming from!?

AIbU to tell him to either find the source or shut up about it??!!

as an aside - what could the smell be as it can’t actually be urine! What else could smell like this?

Have you recently repainted in old Valspar paint? Years ago we painted our bedroom in Valspar and when it got to the warmer months the room stank of cat wee. Apparently Valspar had changed formula which was causing the smell.

Check the fridge/freezer isn't leaking.

We had a piss smell in our living room and it turns out the cat had been pissing on the armchair

So, according to this thread, it could be about a hundred different things…

Have you left a door open in the hot weather? My money is on "Tom cat"........ I've also had the misfortune of one wandering in and marking his territory!!!!

Some Nike football boots can smell like cat piss regardless of the hygiene standards of the wearer.
I was cursing the neighbour’s cat for weeks before realising the stench was coming from DC’s new boots. It was so bad we had to leave them in the shed.
I’ve since found out that it was a manufacturing fault in certain ranges and they should have been returned.

An elderly dog with the beginnings of incontinence. Dog peed on their own foot and then got on the rug. DH peed on his own foot and went on the rug.someone spilled a little orange juice or milk. A sweaty sock under the sofa.
