My neutered cat is spraying- help?

Cats tend to spray in the same few places. Try scrubbing these things excessively, getting out as much of the pee as you can and then block access to it (preferably with something not too 'out-there' as they will also spray on things that are unusual to them).

You can try and distract the cat before he sprays too. Cats will normally start circling, smelling their intended spraying-spot excessively, and opening their mouths in a sort of sneering way (where they are 'tasting' the smell). If you talk to them in a high-voiced, spirited way whilst they are behaving like this they will generally either run away (if they were in fact going to spray) or run to you excitedly because they were just curious and now think you are going to play with them.

Make sure the litter trays are well-kept too.

Another odd thing that I've found in my cat owning life is that if you place a water bowl in a favourite spraying spot they seem to go over to spray, see the water and think 'Oh I'll have a drink instead!'

Is he free to roam the house too? I've found cats seem to spray more, the more cooped up they are.

He was neutered around a year and a half ago when I lived at my mom's house. He was an indoor/outdoor cat (she lived out in the country). He never sprayed inside there they we knew of. We moved here a year ago. At first I never let him out because we are on the edge of town, but he wanted to go outside so badly that I tried taking him on a harness. Eventually I would let him out for a few hours a day while I was at home (with the door open so he can easily come back in). Still, he never sprayed. In the last couple months I've stopped letting him out because he got into a fight with a roaming tom cat. Since then he has started spraying our recliner, our bedroom door, and probably in other places. The first day he did it I was so flustered I let him out, and for a while after that I didn't notice him spraying. Today he's started it again. (and I haven't let him out again since the other time). If I let him out regularly will he stop spraying?/ He IS neutered. I just don't get it. My husband is telling me if he keeps this up he's going outside full time and I don't want that because this cat is my baby. Please give me some advice!

Your cat has an established spraying habit since you neutered him too late in life(it's preferable to neuter male cats when they're 4 months or younger,before their sexual & behavior habits develop).Since the adult cat is spraying you might try using a cat behavior modifying product called Feliway it's a product that deters spraying & makes cats feel comfortable.

We had a neutered cat that literally destroyed our family room furniture, carpet and wall paper. We took him back to the vet to see what and if there was anything we could do to stop this.. We ended up putting him up for adoption and became a farm cat.
