Yes. Spraying is a way of marking territory, and both male and female cats are very territorial. Except when a female is in heat, a male cat considers her no more than another intruder on his hunting grounds, and will spray to mark his turf.

Male cats spray as they are more territorial than uneutured male cats. Also I think it may have something to do with attracting a mate.
