Free advice on does neutering of male cats stop spraying?
Neutering has absolutely nothing to do with it. The cat is simply marking its territory. When cats spray, they leave a scent that warns approachers that the spray site is his property. To stop it, buy a cat pheromone and plug it in (it's like an air freshener you plug into an outlet) where he frequently sprays. He may be spraying becuase he is re-enforcing his claim because of a threat, like a dog, child, or frequent trespasser. The pheromone will calm him down when he comes near, and may not spray. Aslo, place more litter boxes throughout the house in areas that are private, uninterrupted, quiet and easily accessable. Show him these places and he might use them. Hope this helps!
Can feliway stop cats from biting people?
Feliway is ment to help calm a cat down and to lessen stress. So if the cat is biting because it's upset or stressed, then yes. If, however, the behavior is something it's Always done, then the problem is Training- so Feliway wont help much. You would need to Train the cat that this behavior is a problem. When cats play together (or fight) they bite, a cat has to be trained that they have to be more gentle with people.
Can you plug a Feliway diffuser for cats into a cheaper brand diffuser?
The answer is no. I tried a Glade plug in and and Air Wick plug in and neither accommodate the vial like the Feliway diffuser. Even cutting bits off various 'cheap' diffusers to make the vial fit did not work. only through the Feliway diffuser will the potion be dispensed. *Very expensive and niche market for the original diffuser though :( You can, however, get the diffuser as cheap as $18 online (Amazon, About.pricegrabber, etc.) rather than the $46 at the PetSmart nearby me.
How long does feliway take to start working?
It depends on the nature of the problem and how long it's been a problem. Some cats show signs of improvement in less than a week. Feliway suggests using it for at least a month before assessing the effectiveness...I hope your cat is doing well!

What can you spray to keep a cat out of a room?
Cats spray to communicate and they communicate in different ways so a cat will spray for different reasons.The main reason that they spray is because they are not spayed or neutered. Spaying or neutering your cat helps in mostcases of spraying (both male and females can spray).If your cat is fixed and STILL sprays it is either marking its territory or stressed.Cat spray contains pheromones, which sends messages during mating seasons. They also spray to mark territory, letting other cats know that this is their area. If you have a lot of cats they will spray more.The best way to get them to not spray a certain area again is to throughly clean the area. There are certain cleaners that can be purchased at pet supply stores that disinfect and deodorizer a cat spray and urine smell. If a cat smells a spray spot he may spray there again. A equal mix of white vinegar and water in a spray bottle will work too.Another option they sell is "Feliway" which helps calm a cat.Pet stores like PetSmart also sell something called "SSScat" if they are spraying in a certain area SSScat is a motion detector that will spray a very harmless mist when the cat gets near where it is placed. This will keep them from returning to the area.
