Hi Joana, you'll have to give your carpets a really deep clean to prevent your purr babies from doing it again. Your best bet is to use a cleaning product that's made specifically for pet odors and urine that will break down the uric acid. We use F10 but I believe it's only available in South Africa. Looking online I found OudorMute which has great reviews - https://www.amazon.com/Odormute-Dog-Odor-Eliminator-15-Ounce/dp/B003ZU0BYM. You can also look for citronella incense sticks or room spray and use that to stop them from coming into the room. Our cats hate the smell.
Hi Johana, hope this helps you out.

By cleaning the area thoroughly. Once the cat can no longer smell the pee from before, he or she should stop urinating there. Finding an enzymatic cleaning solutionOpens a new window for the carpet will help get rid of the smell for good.
Any places the cat may have urinated should be thoroughly cleaned. Remove the smell with an enzymatic cleaner made especially for pet odors. If cats can still smell their own pee, they might be drawn to the same location.
Thoroughly clean the spot(s) where they pee, baking soda is absorbent. then as that is going on take kitty in for a check-u and rule out disease. Hopefully all is ok.
Cats also react to major changes in their world, if they see a dog, another cat, or a critter outside, they may resort to this behavior. You'll have to play detective to figure this out.
I like the idea of putting the litter box on the spot, and then slowly move it out if the way.
Hi Johana, hope this helps you. Enzyme-based cleaners are best for recurring issues, since they eliminate the odor and discourage the cat from re-marking that territory. While you're training your cat and changing their behavior, you may also use home-solutions like aluminum foil or double-sided tape on the rug's surface.
