Help! I have a 7 month old female kitten. Several months ago, she began urinating in a manner which has become problematic. She begins urinating by squatting, but then stands up, squirting urine outside the box which suggests spraying. She does not "spray" anywhere else but in the litterbox. I thoroughly clean the area but this continued. I consulted my vet and he said that the behavior should cease once she is spayed. Recently I had her spayed but the behavior continues. Now I'm not sure if this behavior will change. Is there a period of adjustment after spaying before the behavior changes? Does anyone have any suggestions?
