My male cat is spraying - and it's new behavior.

Hi. My neutered male cat started spraying a few months ago. First it
was the couch. Got some Feliway, that seemed to help for a while.
Yesterday he sprayed my tote bag, last night my boyfriend came over
(he's come over many times before, no spraying happened), the male cat
got up, walked over to my guitar case and started spraying on it right
in front of us. Male cat is in good health, just got a check up.
Feliway is still plugged in the wall. He gets along fine with other
(female) cat in my smallish apt. No other cats in the area. I cannot
afford to hire a pet therapist for $400 to cure him, so any
thoughts/help are appreciated. If he sprays the bed, he's going to the
vet and I'm putting him down.


Sounds like your cat is suffering from T.O.S. The only cure is rehoming him.


I'm at my wit's end,

Must have been a short trip.

If you are serious take your pet to no kill shelter and never own a pet
again

You love your pet yet you make statements like that one?

Would you like to go back and rephrases your statement before people think
you are a waste of life?






Who cares what people think? Especially 'people' like you...? Dirty
little faggot...

Well, kelly.... whatever you do, just make sure that it's the popular
thing to do at the moment. Otherwise, you might be thought of badly by
'people' like Matthew.

Stop talking about your son like that it is not nice He can't help that
your wife dressed him as a girl than had her way with him

Kelly,

I am horrified that you would say you would put your cat to sleep over this.
I feel like Matthew was just trying to point it out to you because thats
something cat lovers don't want to hear. I felt better when you said it was
in the heat of the moment. It just makes me sick to the stomach when I hear
that because some people are serious. My sisters cat peed on her bed. She had
two options. Try to resolve it or find a new home for her cat. She keeps the
cat in her room so she's not upset by the other cat. As a safety measure she
puts a shower curtain on her bed because there still is the occasional
accident. When we're home she has free run of the house because we can
supervise her. Is it extra work for us...yes..but its 100% worth it to us.
Because she loves her cat she chooses to go the extra mile to make it work. I
know how frustrating it can be to have a cat peeing everywhere so if someone
can't deal with it then i would say find a home because there are people that
love cats dearly and would deal with it like my sister does. She took the cat
from someone who didn't want to deal with it.

Matthew,

Understood loud and clear--and agree with you 100%. I have a senile,
geriatric kitty that misses the box more times than not. As much as it's a
pain to deal with, I really can't see killing her to solve the issue. I
have washable pads where she most frequently goes and do a lot of laundry!
I love her dearly and as long as she's reasonably happy I'll be doing a lot
more laundry! My animals are a big part of my family and although it's hard
sometimes (I'm also dealing with a geriatric dog who has occasional mishaps)
I value their companionship so much it's worth it to me.

Bonnie

Thanks Bonnie I am glad I was understood in some extent.

Bonnie my furballs are my children. That is how I view them as family
members and our children. I don't know what I would do with out them. They
have got me through some tough times. I would do what ever it takes no
matter what to keep the safe and healthy.
