He is about a year old and he just recently got nutered a couple days ago. The smell is not as bad but he keeps on sraying on my bed and i cant do laundry almost every night. I live in an apt so if i let him rome outside,i dont know if he can find his way back. Help!

Hi there...if your cat has been spraying prior to being neutered it may have become a habitual pattern which may be difficult to stop without a bit of retraining. If the spraying has begun AFTER the neutering please ring your veterinarian IMMEDIATELY as this may be from a lower urinary disorder from the neuter procedure. There may be an obstruction and this can be life-threatening if not treated within 24-48 hours.

In the meantime you need to clean up all the areas which were sprayed with an enzyme cleaning solution such as Nature's Miracle "Just for Cats" http://www.petsmart.com/global/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524441775019&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302025596&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=2534374302023690&bmUID=1167132360710&itemNo=0&Ntt=nature%27s+miracle+just+for+cats&In=All&previousText=nature%27s+miracle+just+for+cats&N=2 as cats who smell urine like to remark the contaminated areas repeatedly. Pour the solution to soak the affected areas thoroughly and allow to air dry. Repeated applications are necessary for heavily soiled areas in order to notice any results.

take away his air brush. Seriously though, there may be nothing you can do. I had a male kitten neutered at the earliest possible date, and he still sprayed everywhere. The smell got stronger and worse as he got older.
Was advised by a vet that anti-depressents sometimes alter this habit, and I was given paxil tablets to put down his throat daily. Expensive and bothersome. I didn't bother going that route since it would take several weeks to take effect, and the bad learned behavior was already in place.
I will never allow a male cat in my house again.

keep him out of your room!!! close your door and don't let him in. he can have the rest of your apartment......if you do not have a door then put a barricade!
