Our almost 8-yr old cat is a male and was neutered when he was a few months old. We never had trouble before with him spraying in the house, but for the past couple of months he's been spraying and it's been getting worse. At first it was just one area but now it's anything goes! Yesterday was the most upsetting for us, as he sprayed on the tv before my husband could stop him. Nothing is safe around here anymore. Our daughter even moved his and his brother's cat beds and cat tree outside because those are peed up and it's getting smelly in here. I said that they'll get ruined outside (no, our cats do not go outside btw) and now the cats don't have any place to lay out on the porch besides the concrete floor. I hate this because now our house smells and we don't know what to do to stop this. We've tried those enzyme cleaners that are supposed to be so wonderful. Nope, doesn't work here. He's still spraying. Nothing is safe around here. Anywhere he can get too has the likely possibility of getting sprayed. If we wouldn't love him so much, we'd put him outside. Who knows, my husband still might do that because he has gotten really fed up with it. Oh, and another thing this cat does is caterwaul fairly often and when he's not caterwauling he's meowing in some way, which he didn't used to do. He does it pretty much most of the day. I know that there is a stray cat or two around outside, but I think there have always been stray cats (or else they're outside cats that belong to someone) around the area coming and going. Sam (our spray cat) acts like there's something outside when it's dark because he'll be jumping around up and down from one windowsill to another acting like he wants to get at something, but like I said, there have always been roaming cats outside and we never had this problem before.
