A friend of mine needs the Baboo FPCs and I already gave her the one that came to my address. My boyfriend's sister recently gave me a bunch of coupons I had sent to her home address and when I saw the Baboo FPC in there I thought "Great, I'll have another for my friend."
Problem: SIL has a problem with her many cats spraying anywhere they please. This FPC STINKS of cat pee.
I could wrap it in a Ziploc, but even then I feel embarassed to give my friend a smelly freebie. On the other hand, I can't help but think... "Well, it's an fpc and it could help her out."
What would YOU do ?This thread is currently associated with: N/A

That's an awkward situation that you're in lol. On the one hand, you have a reason, on the other...it's kind of gross. I've never had any experience in this field...but could you spray it with glade or something?OR....why don't you just explain the situation to your friend, and let her decide if she still wants it or not?

If you have a few days before the expiry date, you can always try to air it out. Find a place out side that is protected from moisture leave it out for a few days. If you have a wooden deck railing, use a thumb tack to hang it up. Maybe give it a light spray of an air freshener?

I would see if you can get rid of the smell. Try letting it sit in some baking soda. Baking soda works great to remove odours.

I'd spray it with Lysol rather than just smelly stuff to hopefully disinfect it.
If your friend isn't far away maybe you could just go to the store and use the coupon for her.
But yeah, if it was me I would just laugh about it with my friend and ask her if she wants it or not.

If it can stand getting even a tiny bit wet, spritz it with vinegar, that clears up urine smell quickly & easily.
My home made fabric softener is nothing but vinegar & essential oils, and I can tell you anything that has an odour of urine, or even a musty smell (like towels can get sometimes) are fresh right from washer/dryer.

Me personally l would give it to your friend in the plastic bag, explain the situation and let her decide what to do with it. Me personally l would still use it but with a surgical glove on

The poor cashiers and cash office staff, who have to get and process this coupon. They don't even have a clue about the cat pee.
