Should a Neutered Male be able to Spray?

Post by Tambrey »

I have had Roo since he was a very tiny handful....he was neutered at about 6 months of age....give or take....

He SPRAYS.....he will literally back up against a kitchen cabinet or the refrigerator and SPRAY :twisted:

My other male cats go through the motions...but shoot blanks.....but not Roo....

Could his spay have gone wrong?.....can a male cat still spray even though he is supposed to be neutered?

SO WHAT can I do?!
I use the Urine-Off....when I catch him at it, he gets a firm NO and a squirt of water....he KNOWS he is bad....but he goes and does it again :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

If he's doing it frequently, get him checked by your vet to rule out UTI, diabetes, and/or stress.

Yes, some neutered males can and do spray.
