Get the smell out

[SunsetBengal]

Cats are great pets, but can be cumbersome in a confined existence. Thankfully, we live where our cat can go in and out, hence we don't typically keep a litter box, this cat actually prefers to go outside. Only time we do put out a box, is when it's just too cold to put her out for the day while we're working, or if we have to leave the house for a few days.

As for the smells? I think that George Cantstandya's answer is likely about the best you'll get. And, I agree about the febreeze and fabric softener only "masking" odors.
