I've tried nature's miracle in the past and it does nothing for carpets.
You want the spray to be 6-11% enzyme cleaner; lower as a laundry pre-treat and stain remover and higher for carpet or upholstery that has animal or human urine, vomit, blood, etc.

This is factually incorrect regarding urine, especially cat urine.
Vinegar will take care of some components (eg. urea) of urine and lessen the smell temporarily, but uric acid crystals are non-soluble and so it is literally impossible for your assertion to be true. It's the fundamental reason cat spray and the marking of territory is effective.
What non-enzyme cleaners (eg. vinegar) can do is temporarily remove odor as it can remove the byproducts from the natural breakdown of uric acid crystals, but since it doesn't touch the crystals themselves, humidity continues the natural breakdown, which in turn releases odor. (Literally) rinse and repeat. Vinegar only very temporarily treats the symptom, not the cause.
Enzymes are required to break down the uric acid crystals, end of story. Folks can offer their opinions all day long, but the chemistry is the chemistry.

Really, take your time. I'll wait.
I thought we were in a thread with "stain and odor remover" in the title and therefore talking about the removal of stains and odor. Your solution to the former, of course, is wrong because, you know...science.
You do you, man.
EDIT: that was mean. We all get "nose blind" in our own houses. People with indoor cats rarely realize their house smells like cat urine no matter what they do.
Really, take your time. I'll wait.
Did I say otherwise? Nope. In fact, I specifically acknowledge that the vinegar would take care of some components that contribute to the overall odor of cat urine. Now if only "alkaline salts" were the biggest problem with cat urine...but, sadly for you, they're not. It's the uric acid. Is your Google broken?
Oh, well there's the problem! You and I are on different pages! You just want to "clean up" the urine, so of course some paper towels and vinegar will do the trick!

If you're having trouble with cat urine smell in your house or people are telling you that you are blind to it, maybe consult a cleaning professional so they can help you identify and clean your problem areas.

Translations for those playing at home:
"well known" : "My evidence is blogs from the same people who think essential oils cure cancer."
ACV : "pseudoscience"
If that's the best you've got, we're done. You can't having a meaningful dialogue with someone who denies basic science (you know, real science backed by research, not the "science" peddled by unemployed bloggers who subsist on affiliate links). If you think vinegar works for you, then you keep doing that. For the rest of us, enzyme cleaner is all that works on cat urine in the real world.
Personally, I don't keep cats inside because they are jerks who stink up the whole house and so I don't have a problem that needs to be solved. I simply shared a cheap and truly effective solution for those who don't mind indoor cats.

Here's a simple experiment for you. Go take a plastic cup and pee in it, pour some white distilled vinegar in it, cover it (so you can't say something drifted into it), and check back on it 15 minutes later. Observe the smell before and after. There ya go. Now you'll finally be ready to have this discussion. If not, stop wasting my time with your anti-scientific BS.

I like how you literally cannot provide any evidence whatsoever supporting your claim that vinegar breaks down uric acid crystals. Or maybe you're thinking that uric acid crystals aren't the source of strong odor in feline urine?
Tell you what, since you apparently received your BIGLY dual degrees in "the sciences" before the invention of the internet, I'm going to show you how it's done.

Reading through this thread though and liking other suggestions, definitely worth a try

No evidence whatsoever? Errrr...what evidence do you want? Like I said, if you don't believe me, then mix some vinegar in with some urine and see what happens.
Your argument against the science is "hillspet" which references catsite.com
So you're trying to argue against science with commercial sites rather than scientific ones, with the first trying to sell a product and the second one being strictly a forum site that anybody can post anything in that they believe is about cats.
Sorry, but I just can't take your comments seriously at this point.

Keep talking if it makes you feel better. This thread is full of folks talking about the effectiveness of enzyme cleaners on cat urine, not vinegar and human. I'd ask if you know why that is, but you clearly don't.
If you can't take me seriously anymore, don't respond. Think your vanity can take it? It can't, and of course you'll respond. Probably with more conspiracy theories and 5 THINGS BIG ENZYME DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT VINEGAR.

Here's the thing with cats. Their urine is typical more concentrated. A large part of that is because cats often have hydration issues. Additionally, you're going to see higher spikes in metabolites.
Now here's your big problem. The chemical that actually does matter is in both human and feline urine is the uric acid. The other two components, Urea (Odorless) and Urobilin (Related primarily to color) aren't going to be contributing factors to the odor in the cat's urine. So what it comes down to is breaking down the uric acid and preventing or removing it so that it can re-crystalize into your carpet or whatever.
Reality = Not all cats are going to have stinky urine, and other animals, as well as people, can have funky smelling pee.

You basically echoed what I said, minus the fact that only enzymes will break down the uric acid.
Try again, professor.
