How to Clean Cat Vomit from a Satin Dress

Satin is a delicate fabric so stain removal can be tricky. Ideally, you should treat the stain with a cleaner made to be gentle on delicate fabrics yet aggressive on protein and organic stains, the stuff cat vomit is made of.  For both cleaning and deodorizing, give this method a try.

• Everyday Stain & Odor Remover
• Cold water
• Shallow dish
• Clean, dry, white towels

1. Begin by making sure that all chunks have been removed from the area. If any remain, you can scrape them away gently with a spoon or blunt-edged object.
2. Apply the stain remover to the stain. Make sure you follow all label directions and spot test in a hidden place before you begin.
3. If possible, soak the affected area in cold water, using the shallow dish. Allow it to sit for at least five minutes.
4. After soaking, gently squeeze the water from the fabric. Roll the wet satin up in a clean towel and press lightly to remove excess water.
5. Unroll the fabric and lay it flat on the second towel. Allow the piece to air dry away from sun or excessive heat.

• In the case of expensive or important garments, take extra care to spot test in a hidden area, and always follow use and care instructions on the label.
• Everyday Stain & Odor Remover is pH neutral and totally non-toxic, as it’s made with all natural ingredients that are eco-friendly and enzyme based so it’s ideal for delicate fabrics with vomit stains. Woolite may be used in its place if you prefer.
