1. You could try Oxyclean.
Test it on an inconspicuous area first. Otherwise, you might want to check with a carpet dealer and see what they recommend for deodorizers.

When we went through this with our cat, there were multiple pee incidents and we wound up replacing the carpet.

Good luck!

3. Did you try Simple Solution

Stain and Odor Remover? It has some form of bacteria in it that counteracts the urine. You can find it at a pet store. I kind of doubt it ever totally comes out.

11. Well...
In that case, keep the cat out of the area and just keep spraying it with one of those smell killer things and they won't notice until summer hits hard.

After a few years it goes away.....

12. the nature's miracle should work
you gotta soak the carpet and pad with it and let it evaporate. It really does wonders.

7. If there is any company in your area
specializing in crime scene cleanup, I'd ask them. They've gotta deal with some of the toughest odors there are.
