Two of my males - Winky (2 1/2 yrs) and Spooky (10 mos) - seem to be "pretend spraying". They'll back up, wiggle the tail, etc - with no liquid. They were both neutered at about 6 mos. My third male - Sandy (Winky's bro) - does not display this behavior. However, there are several neighborhood males that visit our yard and DO spray. I clean the areas asap, but could this be stressing my boys to try and compete for THEIR territory? Could they just be acting out what they see the older cats doing?
Also, is there a more effective way to prevent spraying from neighborhood visitors other than clean after they hit?! Does Feliway really work?
Thanks!!
