Ex-bf's cat peed on slate tile floor, how can I get the smell out and motor oil stain question?

I have a major clean up to do after my slob ex-bf moves next week. The major thing is his cat peed on my slate entryway and no matter what I clean it with it still smells. Does anyone know how I can get the smell out?





Also, if anyone knows how to remove the stains left after motor oil was spilled all over concrete and then soaked up, I have that little chore to do too. I've gone over it three times by grinding in crushed kitty litter and the sweeping up but you can still see an outline of where it was.Ex-bf's cat peed on slate tile floor, how can I get the smell out and motor oil stain question?
It might be harder to get the cat pee smell out after you've used different chemicals on it.





I don't know about pourous stone, but for most other things Nature's Miracle FOR CATS (not the regular kind and none of the knock-offs I've tried) works the best. You might have to try it a few times. I've found the best price on a gallon size at PetSmart.





Another suggestion would be to contact someplace that specializes in stone and ask them... I know they exist if not only to sell to contractors...





Good luck. Sounds like you also want to burn some sage around the place to cleanse it, some white candles, and maybe some pics of him.Ex-bf's cat peed on slate tile floor, how can I get the smell out and motor oil stain question?
You can use a spray of straight vinegar, or straight vodka, or ODOBAN (Wal-Mart under the Febreeze but costs half as much and really works). I have used all of these and they all work. As for the concrete, they have a cleaner called Krud Kutter in the paint isle that you can spray on the greased area. Let sit about 5 minutes then get a scrub brush and some elbow grease and it will come right off. I did this to my driveway when my grill dripped grease from the food on it. Wipe the excess with a wet rag or one of his favorite cotton shirts for not cleaning up his own mess.
You can try using straight white vinegar on the slate, or bleach water, then spray with Out which can be purchased in the pet dept. at Walmart, it may take several applications of the Out, just spray it on and let it dry..you may have to put a sealer on the slate once you eliminate the odor or at least get rid of most of the odor.


For the oil stain try Greased Lightening and a scrub brush and a little Dawn dish washing soap, this also may take several applications.
For the cat urine, white vinegar, peroxide (test for colorfastness first) or rubbing alcohol. Just pour it on and let it dry. Any residual smell from the vinegar or rubbing alcohol will dissipate quickly. You may have to do this a couple of times, but it does work.





For the motor oil stain, make a paste of laundry detergent and water and scrub into the stain and out past the edges a few inches. Let it sit then scrub it off with a stiff brush. Again, you may have to do this more than once, but let it dry for a couple of days in between scrubbings.
Cat or Dog urine stain and smell, first pour some Club soda on the stain then sprinkle some Baking soda on the club soda let it fizz when the fizzing stops then wipe it up with a paper towel, then rinse it with club soda again and wipe up with paper towel Good Luck





For removing Grease from a concrete floor or driveway, just spray with WD-40 spray then scrub with a stiff brush wait for about twenty minutes then just wash with hot water and laundry detergent and scrub again then rinse with warm water and then again with the hose Good Luck !








Or you can use Laundry detergent and some bleach scrub with a stiff brush then rinse with the hose Caution: Make sure you do not get this on any lawn or near any plants as it can kill your lawn or plants





Good Luck !
