I was driving&with no indication I noticed when I gave it gas it wasn't moving,like it was in neutral. I smelled some like cat urine,I know that sounds crazy but that's what it smelled like. Anyways, I pulled over&I had NO gears. I opened the hood&it looked like someone sprayed transmission fluid everywhere under the hood. It was also running out under the car. What could this be?

Sounds like you lost your gears due to losing all of your transmission fluid. Check all the transmission cooler lines, check the side of the radiator for any cracks because the transmission cooler is built into the radiator and lastly, check to make sure the actual transmission didn't crack or blow a hole in it. If you aren't sure what to check, I would get it towed to a local shop and they should know what to look for. Best of luck.
