How to stop a 10 month old cat from spraying in my yard?
My neighbor has an outdoor male kitten (10 months) who sprays anything
and everything he walks by, and he is often walking in MY yard !! What can I do about this ? My neighbor says the cat is not spayed, but he plans to have it done. Is it too late to stop this cats spraying behavior ? Thank you for any advice anyone can offer. |

How to stop a 10 month old cat from spraying in my yard?
It should stop when it is spayed if your neighbor does not have it done I
would take it to a low cost spay program and have it done for him. get the wake up shot with it and the furball will be back the same day and the neighbor probably won't even know it "michele" wrote in message ups.com...

Your neighbor's cat needs to be neutered *immediately.* This is not guaranteed to solve the problem, but there is a good chance that it will. It may take awhile for you to see the effect. The longer your neighbor waits, the less likely it is to be effective for the purpose you are concerned about. This really should have been done *long* ago because your neighbor's cat is past the age when he could already have become a father (which produces still more kittens in a world where shelters have to euthanize most cats that are brought to them). Let your neighbor know that there are many other benefits. For males the benefits include: · eliminating testicular tumors, · preventing enlargement of the prostate glands, · and preventing injuries and diseases associated with escaping and roaming.

Yes, this is correct. If the neighbor doesn't do it, take him in yourself
and have him neutered. Gail "MaryL" -OUT-THE-LITTER wrote in message news:sNHJf.5147$Tf3.75@dukeread09... "michele" wrote in message ups.com...

How to stop a 10 month old cat from spraying in my yard?
You know you can get fined for doing this if you know that the animal is not
a stray and belongs to someone? Your neighbor probably wouldn't be upset if you can get it done for cheaper than they can but I would tell them especially since the cat has to be watched after the surgery and it shouldn't be out roaming around Celeste "NMR" wrote in message ...

Encourage her to get the kitten neutered as that wil possibly curb his spraying (but may not, now that he has the habit!) Google "garlic" in the cat groups (alt.cats, and this group) and you will find a remedy. -L. |
