Neutered boys


Wasn't sure whether to put this in behaviour or health.

Do neutered boys still 'spray'?

Most don't spray indoors but will do so outside on occasion, at least in my experience. At least it doesn't smell as rank!!

Re: Neutered boys


I'd agree - certainly it won't stop them spraying.

Re: Neutered boys


Neither of my boys have ever sprayed, but they are both indoor only cats, so perhaps that makes the difference.

Some still spray but it smells less, I've even seen some girls do it!

Some girls (Kizzy) pretend to do it!

Yes, Misty did that little waggling "I'm spraying" dance too!
