You could cut it out. :o)  Seriously though, cat urine is a permanent
marker.  You can try Nature's Miracle or Odo-Ban (I don't know if the
latter is a professional product), but speaking from my father's
expertise (about 45 years in the carpet business), cat stains don't
come out.  You could try a good steam-cleaning (maybe even spring for
a professional cleaning, since the big truck-mounted machines are more
powerful), with a professional enzyme treatment, but the problem is the
urine is a powerful marker and it gets into the carpet padding and even
the floor beneath.
