    I had a similar problem in my male cat, only he was fixed. We took him to the vet, cause i KNEW something was wrong and come to find out he had crystal formations in his urinary tract, caused by the dry food he was eating. This is actually a common problem in male cats.

    It could be that he's marking his territory, or that there is something wrong.

    Take the cat to the vet. He may be spraying because he's not neutered, or he has a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI).

    If he has a UTI, you need to get a handle on it. If he has crystals or stones in his bladder, he could block (be unable to pass urine - a life threatening emergency).

    Any time there is a change in litterbox habits is reason to take the cat to the vet.

    And get this cat neutered.

    If he's not neutered it's normal. He needs to mark his teritory, especially if you have another female cat in the household as well.

    nicely you could ought to alter the clutter. one that your cat prefers. Or watch your cat to verify the cat is going to the liter field. Like a domestic dog you need to do away with this challenge. commence on the basis. somebody has to make particular to quit him while he has already began to bypass. circulate the clutter field faraway from a wall.
