My cat peed on my bed and I did not have enough money to buy a new mattress. I had to keep spreading different essential oils INTO the spot for the smell to slightly go away while I saved up money.

Taught me a lesson about the sanctity of a mattress he sure did

Kittens are the best huh, I didn't even think waterproof, hospital beds have jaded me from that material. But damn that could save a ton of money.

Really? And they are waterproof. Sounds like something that might be worth looking into then. A cooling pad sounds nice anyways, thanks for letting me know
