I have 3 cats - 1 indoor only female and 2 indoor/outdoor males. The males came from a feral cat colony in the apartment complex where I was living, they came with their mommas for the food I was leaving out and ended up staying. They were both neutered at 6-10 months and are 5 and 6 years old now, but they both still spray - inside and out.
My Sammy boy (5 years) recently had a urinary issue that the vet diagnosed as stress related - i have no idea what the stressor was - there were no major changes in the household. He was squatting, trying to pee a lot in various locations but nothing to very little came out and it was bloody. So, I gave him more soft food with water and vet prescribed a relaxant first and then a pain medicine. He seems much better now, but he has a LOT MORE PEE. He is spraying much more than usual in the house, and much more quantity. I took the curtains down to wash them in Nature's Miracle Urine Destroyer because they were sprayed and hours after I put them back up all had been marked.
So, I'm wondering, does the fact that his pee is more diluted now with the extra water mean that the pheremones are diluted also and so he feels like he needs to spray more to make up? Or is he just spraying more because he CAN - having more pee to work with? Any advice or thoughts? I rarely catch him doing it but do sometimes.
