How do I clean a Tempur-Pedic (memory foam) mattress and pillow?

I have a Queen size memory foam mattress and pillow, both under the brand name Tempur-Pedic. They’re great, but I find I’m having difficulty cleaning them … for example, the cat threw up a hairball on the mattress the other day, and I could spot-clean the stain with Lysol, water/soap and Febreeze, but I don’t think that was sanitary enough.

With the pillow, I was told by the salesperson you can’t wash it in the washer/dryer, but what are you supposed to do freshen it up (obviously, I change and wash the pillowcases frequently)? For now, I’m putting talcum powder and/or Febreeze on it, but that doesn’t seem to really be hygenic. Any suggestions on how to clean it?

Thanks!
I do have a mattress cover that is removable, however, the stain went straight through that on to the actual mattress. So, yes, I can remove the cover and wash that, but it still doesn’t help me with cleaning the actual mattress. And being waterproof won’t rid it of the smell and bacteria of the cat vomit, unfortunately.

I told my sister to do this and it worked: Wash it outside by hand with a hose and some kind of soap that does not contain oils and that is not strong. My sister used her leftover bubble bath and it worked great. It will take a couple of days to sun dry but the sun is a natural disinfectant too. I would try to hang them so it can drip dry also.

Good luck and happy cleaning!!!!
