Irritated! Posted: 06-22-07 16:38pm
Okay, we bought this new house and
requested for the carpets to be
professionally cleaned because they have a
cat and a dog. Well, they got them cleaned
and now the house smells like pee. The
ammonia smell is so bad. The carpets are
almost brand new but apparently their dog,
cat or both still peed on the new carpet.
It never smelled when we were in their
before. We already closed on the house so
there is nothing we can do. The carpet
cleaners came by again and stated that it
does smell pretty bad. The owner is a real
estate agent and said we should have
stated in the contract to have a deep
cleaning. He also said that it smells like
a bunch of cat pee and that cat pee is
really hard to get out. He will be doing a
deep cleaning on tuesday and will be
neutralizing the carpet today to keep us
from smelling the smell. We have two dogs
as well and I hope they don't pee all over
the carpet because they smell another dog
or cats pee!! GRRRRRR. I hate pee smell.
I had a pest control guy come over and
spray the house, interior and exterior.
They claim to be safe for babies and
pregnant people...I hope so. I guess the
insect population on the outside of our
house was pretty bad. We also had about 10
wasp nests around the house and inside the
storage shed. I am so glad we had this
done before our furniture was moved in!!!
Luckily we don't have a bug problem inside
the house.
I am supposed to be packing right now and
really can't get myself to even start. My
husbands parents are coming in town today
to help us move. I am trying to be happy
that they are helping but I know I will
just be irritated. I am in an extremely
irritated mood anyways and they will just
add to it.
My son is at the woman's house who will be
watching him and my newborn when I go back
to work. She is so wonderful. I just can't
be around my son today or I would be mean
due to my general irritation with
everything.
When I went through the house today, I
noticed it was a little dirty. This
irritated me. The people who sold us the
house are extremely clean very organized
people. The house is hardly dirty but I am
irritated. I feel like I need to scrub
everything because the dirt is not ours. I
think it's an over the top nesting thing.
I went over there to clean but couldn't
because I was ready to vomit due to the
pee smell!!
Getting gas was just so irritating today.
I wish we lived in Oregon where it's
against the law to pump your own gas. I
hate trying to find a gas station, getting
out, having to pump my gas, and then
watching my money quickly disappear
because gas is just so darn expensive.
This irritates me!!
Traffic irritates me. Why do so many cars
have to be on the road at 1:00 pm??? It
takes forever to get anywhere.
Sorry, I am just irritated about
everything. I wish I could be positive
right now but it's just not in me!

I am sorry you are having a bad day. I
hate pee smell also and cats pee is really
bad. My boyfriends cat peed all over his
couch one time and it just smelled sooo
bad, and couches are harder to clean..I
just wanted to throw it out, lol.
I hope your day gets better and
somethings happens you can smile about.
Things will work out, but I can imagine
with being pregnant, trying to move and
the problems with the house then just
everything else just adds to the
frustration. I sure would be irritated
too!
Take a few deep breaths(not in the pee
house though, lol). I know its hard, but
try and think of some positive
things...again I hope your day goes better

awwww you poor thing!!! i'd be pretty
irritated about the whole cat pee thing
too. i'm surprised they can't do anything
about that at this point. that really is
the worst smell in the world. sorry
you're having such a bad day!! i'm
currently trapped in the computer room
with a bunch of shelves and boxes and
stuff so i can't really move around.
there are big burly men in my living room
making a lot of noise tearing down the
walls. we have started to redo our living
room and it's probably going to take a
week to get it back into any kind of
livable shape. i'm not supposed to be
around all that plaster dust so i'm
confined to the office with nothing to do
but post my little heart out on this forum
lol. i'm taking some kids to see shrek
later and i'm scared someone will mistake
me for the star of the show. gad my feet
are gigantic!!!!
hope you feel better soon. maybe the
smell will fade once the carpets are
thoroughly dry.

Thanks guys! You are so sweet. I honestly
think part of my irritation is hormones.
If not, I am going to use that as an
excuse anyways. Then again I think a lot
of people would be irritated if they
bought a house with horrible ammonia pee
smell.
Karen, you sound like you are going
through a lot of stuff in your house as
well. It's great you are doing it now
instead of later! you will have such a
great time seeing shrek. The new one looks
just as funny!! I feel like a shrek.
I think Vanessa is moving next week, when
she is 38 weeks pregnant. Now that would
stink.
I have plenty to do then go on this forum
but I just see my computer and keep coming
back for breaks (meaning every five
minutes). So sad.

Lol, blame it on the hormones I think it really
does help to write(type), vent about
things. I havent gotten to that point here
yet, but I am sure a day will come where I
am just as frustrated. It's nice to know
that we can all come here and let it out
and others will be supportive and say kind
words. Good luck to you both in your move
and getting settled before the babies
come.

Thanks Shannon! I love this forum. I feel
like we are one big family...with some of
the dysfunction included of course.

Your welcome, anytime Lol, thats
right...whats family without a lil drama.
I feel the same way.
cat pee is the worst ever, my old cat used
to pee on my things and i ended up
throwing it out because i couldnt get the
smell out of it even after washing and
scrubbing it. I can bet that it has went
through the carpet to the floor underneat
so its even harder to get that smell out.
It would really suck to have to rip up
brand new carpet just to get rid of the
smell. Hopefully your day gets better or
tomorows a better day.

Thanks guys. The people who are helping us
move are coming in an hour. I truly hope
that it doesn't smell like pee when we get
to the house. The carpet cleaner came by
the house and sprinkled neutralizer on the
carpet. He will be coming back in a few
days to give it more of a deep clean -
which better work.
I won't be able to come on here for a few
days because my internet won't be hooked
up I will be going
through forum withdrawal. I have enough
things to keep me busy.
