  • Quilt

  • Urine

    Act quickly to prevent this spot from drying and becoming a permanent problem.

  • Water

    This is the universal solvent for cleaning.

  • Oriental rug

    This is another easy-does-it job. When in doubt, seek professional help.
  • Rubbing Alcohol

    Rubbing alcohol

    An inexpensive, highly useful household solvent. Use carefully — it’s flammable.

    It helps if you hang onto the instructions. Here’s what to do if you can’t find them.
