Is plain cat litter(i.e. Jonny Cat) a safe way to wick water from an automobile floor carpet?

I wouldn't...ever see what happens to wet cat litter? And then you have to get all the little granules out of the carpet.

I'd use a shop vac/wet vac to pull as much of it out as possible..then run the A/C on recirc as long as possible. Either that or pull the carpet out completely and let it dry that way.

Windows were left open during a rainstorm.

shop vac and running the heater in the car should help...if you have a garage that would work..even running a cord to it and placing a fan in there well help.

just wanted to make sure wasnt a heater core leak or something
