My cats got to my suede leather jacket and a pair of my leather boots and one of them "sprayed" on them. Can someone give me a tip on how to clean them?

A few things you can try.:
1. White vinegar. But try it on a section of the boot that won't show much to ensure it doesn't damage the suede. White vinegar takes out ALOT of feline urine odor on most anything (carpet, clothing, etc.)
2. There is another product in pet stores that you can get that "eliminates" the enzyme that causes the odor/stain. Check with your local pet store for the name (I can't remember).
Nature's Miracle is the enzyme stuff, available at PetSmart. Works wonders on carpet/upholstery. Suede may be permanently spotted by liquid already though.
My cat peed on my new suede boots and I have no idea how to remove the stain/odor. Help!

Thank you, I'll try both!
I used to work for a dry cleaning company and the rule of thumb is that you need to dispose of anything that a cat has urinated on. Cat pee is one thing that you will never be able to do away with completely. The smell will always be there, no matter how it is cleaned or how many times you try.
Sorry disagree that can't be cleaned 16 oz peroxide , 1 T baking soda and 1 T dish soap - allow to work and or dry depending on item - works quite nicely.
Actually, you may also need a suede cleaner. How do you clean those costly boots? With UGG Cleaner& Conditioner.
A couple of ideas from UGG: Moisten entire surface with clean, cold water. Apply dilulted cleaner with a sponge, rubbing gently all over. Don't rub delicate suede harshly.
Rinse with clean, cold water. Stuff gently with paper to hold shape. Dry slowly, not with heat or sunlight.
When dry, brush with a suede brush in only one direction.
Treat with UGG Water & Stain Repellent.
O.
Get the original Nature's Miracle in the red and white bottle. Spray well, then let it dry completely. The smell will not be removed until the item dries.
Repeat until the odor is gone.
Now whether your suede can handle water, that's another issue, but Nature's Miracle really does work when it comes to neutralizing urine odors because it breaks down the bacteria with enzymes.
Good luck!
My cat went pee on my new suede couches.. what do I do to the cushion she wet?
I just got her 2 days ago!!

My cat has peed in the corner of the seat of my suede chair, it is a very expensive piece of furniture and I don't want to throw it away. Can anyone help?
So we used this stuff called Natures Miracle Stain and Odor Remover to get the pee stain out of the suede couch. It worked great and there is no smell or stain. We sprayed it, let it sit for 5 minutes, took a kitchen sponge and rubbed and blotted it, then took paper towels and soaked it up the best we could, then took a hair dryer to it and it was a good as new.
So I have a pair of black leather boots, my favourite, and my cat peed on them. I washed them with a leather soap, smell stayed. I completely saturated them with Nature's Miracle, allowed to dry, smell stayed. So I figured given that they were obviously going to be a lost cause anyways, I threw them in my front loading washing machine, warm water wash, with laundry detergent, even threw in some towels with it. Voila the smell was gone. My boots had shrunk but after wearing them a couple of times now they have stretched out to the point the no longer cut off circulation to my feet. Good luck!
Great post, Chris! One of my 2 cats (both neutered males) had taken to painting all of my walls, furniture, and anything else he could reach. I was horrified when I got a UV light. He never did that in all of the 9 years I've had him and didn't when I got him a buddy (they love each other and did so right away) but when a strange black cat started showing up outside both of my cats went nuts and the older one (9) started his wall painting, as well as the curtains out in the kitty room. I couldn't keep up with it.
My cats are indoor cats so it's not like the stray is actually going to get in here but they both hate him (and he is weird...my neighbor's cats hate him too). I've tried cleaning with a pet urine enzyme and then spraying some "No More Spraying" but that hasn't worked.
He's a sneaky little bugger too; he waits until he thinks I'm not looking and then does it. He's learned that the minute I see him backing his butt up to something he gets yelled at. It wasn't until I found "Cat Spraying No More" that I was able to finally get rid of this tiresome behavior. Now my house doesn't smell like a litter box anymore :)
Here's a link the their site if you're interested in checking it out, I highly recommend this: NoMoreCatPee.com

You can get one of those motion detector sprinklers or air blowers that Jackson Galaxy uses on his show. Only take a few times of being sprayed out of the blue with water or air to get the stray to stay away from your cats boundaries. Then you wont have to deal with cat pee at all. Literally stops. Even though that cat isnt right near them - they know hes there and hes messing with them. They cant do any thing about it except to mark their territory. Plus if you have a Ring doorbell camera and cant get it on film, its strangely gratifying to see the little shit get startled and run off!
