PREFACE: So my pig can aim her pee. No kidding, she can shoot it out. :sick:

Anyways, today during floor time, she got angry at a piece of fleece that touched her rear end when she entered her fleece forest. Seriously, this pig has attitude. She launched some urine and it got on the carpet. My mom hates spots on the carpet, so does anybody have any tips on how to clean it up? (Preferrably something that I won't have to go buy, like a carpet cleaner, unless it's worst case scenario.)

Possible solutions:
-ammonia + hot water
-white vinegar + baking soda (makes a paste, vacuum it up)
-laundry detergent
-oxiclean

Have you tried any of those? If so, have they worked?

I've tried the ammonia and hot water...DEFINITELY works. The white vinegar and baking soda is just kinda annoying to deal with. I've tried oxiclean and it was awesome also. Haven't tried the laundry detergent though but I've heard it works well too.

Okay thank you! I also heard that hydrogen peroxide works. Do you think this would work?

Was about to suggest that. Peroxide will get stains out.
