Recommendation on getting rid of cat spray smell

Swasti from Remuera

Hi neighbours

We trialed a cat few months back and unfortunately it soiled our new couch and padded chairs.

While I've managed to get rid of the moisture, the smell is still lingering. Can someone please recommend any products that they found helpful in getting rid of the smell.

Thanks
