    Try one of the good enzyme cleaners from the pet store.

    Nature's Miracle for cats to the rescue!!!!! You can find it on Amazon. I suggest the 32oz bottle with the flip top. Its about $6 or $7. We have one for upstairs and one for downstairs. You can find it at Petsmart, but you will pay twice as much.

    If you want to try something quick and cheap, spray plain old rubbing alcohol on the stain, take a clean, white preferably, cloth and rub and blot the stain out. I too have off white carpet and two cats. I can't tell you how much I have used it on every stain!

      This works!!! My dog who is getting old throws up more now and this is my go to method. Sometimes I use hydrogen peroxide or dawn dishwashing liquid if I grab them first. They even take out old stains I don't find immediately.

    Check out my (3) comments (with testimonial photos) in this post when another HomeTalk member asked a similar question. I swear by the product I recommended and as my photos show, the stuff REALLY works. (I don't know why some of the photos aren't showing up but I think you can see the really important ones that show the results.) http://www.hometalk.com/diy/clean/house/q-how-to-get-out-a-carpet-stain-5690037

    After wiping up the mess, spray it with Resolve Carpet Cleaner and lay a paper towel on top of it and leave it. The paper towel will absorb the stain and the carpet will be renewed. I have five cats indoors and this works well.

    I agree with TinaLouise, Hydrogen Peroxide and or Dawn Dish Washing Detergent are my go to treatments...

    Use Hydrogen Peroxide. Will not take out the color.

    I take an old dishwashing cleaner bottle and mix a solution of dishwashing liquid and hydrogen peroxide solution to keep on hand. It will clean messes out of carpet, clothing, furniture and even remove blood stains.

    dr fosters and smith odor logic cleanaway. hydrogen peroxide may bleach out some carpets, dawn dish washing soap may leave a residue that will collect dirt. resolve carpet cleaner will work, but only if its not a "marking my territory" type stain or vomit.

    We use Resolve Carpet Cleaner. It takes out everything.
