The smell of cat pee is difficult to get rid of, and if Galaxy can smell any, she will most likely go again in the same place. It's hard work having to wash everything so often. Can you hang it to dry outside?
I wonder if it would help if you spray something that cats don't like on your bed - I have no idea what it could be, but perhaps lemon or lavendar. It should be a smell you like yourself, of course.
Oh, just thought of something... instead of getting more plastic to put on your bed, you could buy one of those blankets that they use for beds in hospitals. I think they soak up pee, and I imagine pharmacies sell them.
What do think trickered it? Does the vet have any clue?
I send you positive thoughts, love and hugs. Hope you can solve it.

Thanks, Randi. That's a good idea, spraying something on the bed that she won't like. There are solutions of things like bitter lemon or bitter apple for that purpose. I may even have some. I'll have to look around.
I can't hang the bedding outside to dry. I live in a long two-story building with 36 apartments, a short lawn with some trees in front, and a parking lot in back. Nowhere to hang a clothesline. But that's a good idea, if it were possible. Looks like another trip to the laundromat tomorrow! I wash them with strong detergent and bleach, to get rid of the pee smell.
I'll check out about those blankets. I don't know if pharmacies here carry them, but I'll see. If not, probably a medical-supply company.
Meanwhile, I hope we can somehow solve this! I sure don't want this to be an ongoing problem.
Thanks again, Randi!

Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
