And here is one for cat owners like my own  :
Cut a couple of lemons in half, place them with the cut side up in a dish in the same room as the cat box and the citrus will help cut the *other* acidic odor.

You don't have to buy an expensive stainless steel cleaner anymore ,instead you could just use a little salt and lemon juice. Make sure you wipe the steel down with a clean cloth afterwards.
