Help - cannot get cat sick stains out of green carpet

[2020again]

Has anyone got any handy tips about getting cat sick/poo stains out of carpet?

We have old cat who occasionally makes stains and I normally deal with it quite well with fairy liquid - in fact it’s been near perfect up to now. It is an older light green colour short pile carpet.

However in last few days there have been I think sick stains (from night time sick - I never saw the first one so am guessing as DH did it). I am concluding these are different from poo stains as fairy liquid has only superficially lifted the stain. It is a massive carpet and we simply can’t afford to replace it.

Does anyone water have some clever solution to getting these out – oh I really do hope so.

I should add the cat is fine, just greedy so will be putting less food overnight - he gets a big choice overnight as he is fussy and I don't want him to be hungry but last night he ate the lot!

Thank you.

Do you think the stomach acid has bleached the carpet?.

I find that Vanish Carpet Mousse has almost magical properties for removing stains.

Definitely worth a try.

Fluffycloud77 no I don't think the stomach acid has bleached it as it has not gone lighter I just can't lift the stain

Grumpyoldpersonwith cats do you mean this? www.robertdyas.co.uk/vanish-power-foam-gold?source=aw&awc=1528_1610192179_f12c0e252dc18220f2355d82b2cd1d7b&src=AW&affiliate=624709&utm_source=AW&utm_medium=affiliate
I tried that already on the first stain - did not seem to do anything - maybe I did not leave it on or long enough I was frightened it might bleach an entire patch if it was too strong etc

This stuff - it gets EVERYTHING out of carpets and upholstery, cat sick, wee, diarrhoea, red wine - it’s brilliant.

Yes it's that one - always works for us, you need to really work it into the carpet after spraying on.

Test on an inconspicuous area first.

I second the Dr Beckmann cleaner it's brilliant.

Theres an argument for all cat owners buying a carpet cleaner for times like this isn’t there?.

Professional carpet cleaner. They work miracles and still allowed in lockdown.

The rug doctor one for pets is absolutely brilliant ...works on everything not just pet stains! www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B008KHGD4C/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_FdZ-Fb1ZEFD95?tag=mumsnetforu03-21

I third the Dr Beckmann cleaner - blooming marvellous stuff!
