Great to know. Is there anything like that for dogs?

Cats hate the smell of grapefruit. (Not only is it a deterrent, but it is
used in commercial cleaners for animals stains as it has bacteria killing
properties).
Perhaps you can find a way to put the smell outside of the
cabinet, even cotton balls in small fabric bags, hung from door knobs or a
dozen other variations. Not sure that a 'potpourri' would be appropriate
inside the cabinet as it could affect lace much later.
I had a very old
cat going into kidney failure and she used a spot. I cleaned it thoroughly
with a composition I made up that included vinegar and baking soda, then
placed grapefruit peels around an upside down laundry basket I had set
over it
to allow it to dry. She never went back there and though it could have
been a
through cleaning (I could never get a whiff of cat thereafter), the
grapefruit
likely did the trick. I also used it on a corner of a kitchen rug she had
piddled on after washing it, and she never went back there, either.
At
times I used grapefruit oil instead (where it was safe to use oils), and
have
used grapefruit seed extract for safe disinfecting of non-bleachable
things.
Of course most of this info is generally non-applicable to lace itself.
HTH,
