+1 for malco. good ****, used to use that and jax wax **** at the dealership i worked at. after cleaning my car in the heated wash bay with hot water and all the industrial strength cleaners from Malco and Jaxwax, at the dealership, i forgot what a bitch it was and how expensive to do it right like i could at the 'ship, at my house with **** that was twice as expensive and half as good. we also had a hose that sprayed just right, not high pressure but not low pressure either......perfect

we had this thing at work called a "de-asser" its a thing, that you plug in and put it in the car overnight. it eleminates ANY smell, i mean ANY. we had cars that would come in from auctions that would smell so bad that we had to push them in the wash bay because no one would drive them in. we would throw that bitch in there and it would smell brand new.

i used to detail cars awile back and the first thing i would do is like someone else said, take out the seats, and if need be the carpet if its bad enough and have it all replaced. its not to expensive to replace carpet and youll thank yourself later, you can never completly take cat **** outta carpet once its set in. i would use the Vanilla scent that goes in your vents it it were my car. and what the hell are you talking about "would the extra weight slow me down"? thats like the "take a **** before you take it to the track mod" im sure itll make your car spin a muffler bearing too

Way off topic but didnt mythbusters put a couple dead pigs in a corvette once and try to get the smell out after a few days? I seem to recall them failing, even after using digestive enzymes and other crazy ****. They ruined a vette.....bastards. Still a great show though.

Honestly none of that **** works. Some of them look real cool, and the cheap mehicano scented trees last 8 hrs if you're lucky and don't live under the sun.

Good luck on the cat ****, one of those MFrs pissed on my wheels and ruined them. I hate cats with a passion.
