Free advice on does neutering of male cats stop spraying?

Answer 1

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!

Hi, i have the same problem my cat sprays up walls near catflap, I have been told to get a 'feliway plug' in that keeps cats happy. And a 'feliway spray' to spray where the cat has sprayed on wall. First you must wash wall with washing powder and water to get rid of smell or they will do it again. My cat is male and was neutered at 8 months old, hes 3 years old now and hes still spraying up walls. I think heres worried about others cats coming in, that why hes doing. I will try this feliway stuff, lets hope it works. Hi, i have the same problem my cat sprays up walls near catflap, I have been told to get a 'feliway plug' in that keeps cats happy.

If your cat is spayed it should be unable to spray. Sometiafter spaying your cat may be able to spray for a week or two but once it loses all its male hormones it will not be able to anymore

No, it can't. Spraying is due to stress, probably due to just moving, a new baby or a new animal. To stop it from spraying, try to reduce the cat's stress level.
