Hi Rebecca...in all honesty, the only way to stop a cat from spraying is to have it neutered. The longer your cat continues to spray it will become habitual and more difficult to stop the behaviour even if he's neutered.

Many shelters worldwide will perform low fee or free (to qualifying low income recipients) spay/neuters. If you are located in the USA consider ringing 1-800 SPAY USA http://spayusa.org to find a shelter nearby you.

Last year my beautiful Manx cat Theodore went out for the evening and never came back. I love cats and the house didn't feel the same without one, so I picked up Lola from a rescue centre. She was very frightened and would pee all over the house. I found Cat Spraying No More� on the internet and the techniques worked almost immediately. I haven't had a problem with Lola since. Amazing!
Can't stop your cat peeing in the house? Then worry no more...

Okay, I don't think you are a bad pet owner just because your cat sprays. Your cat is just trying to claim his territory. What some specialists suggest and what actually worked for friends is taking a slightly damp rag and rubbing your cat a couple of times with it. This should get his scent on the rag, then rub it in the areas in which your cat sprays, this has to be done every couple of days to prevent spraying. Please be aware that even if you do the responsible thing and neuter you cat he may continue to spray. This is an extra step you can take to ensure the spraying stops.

Oh I'm sorry but I laughed at your question, not because it is a stupid one but because you can't stop him now. He needed to be neutered before he started spraying. You can't stop him unless you get one of those pet magazines that offer cat diapers to help with the spraying. But then he might take it off. Good luck!

Yep, get him neutered, but also remember that if you don't remove the smells he's left around the house, he'll continue spraying even AFTER you fix him.
Remove the spraying he's done with a product designed to remove cat spray odor guaranteed. (Nature's Miracle is my fave)

You neuter him! If he has been spraying for a while, he may continue to spray after being neutered because it has become a habit. Neutering him is the best chance you have to keep him from doing it!

The only way I could stop this behavior was to neuter my cat. The smell is just awful and difficult to get rid of. Good luck and have a purrfect year.

This is so obvious....you get him neutered.
Why haven't you done this yet? Not only will your cat be far less inclined to spray, you won't have to worry about possible serious injury from him fighting with other toms. A neautered cat is SUCH a better pet...he'll be more affectionate with you, as well.
For your sake AND your cat's, please see to this and have it done as soon as possible.

Bad bad pet owner! If you are not planning to breed fix your pet. The longer you wait to have him fixed the harder it will be to get him to stop spraying.
Go to your ASPCA they'll fix your cat for about 30 bucks.

neuter him. It doesn't always completely stop him from spraying, but it is a start...
