Why is my cat still peeing after being neutered?

Why is my cat still peeing after being neutered?

Neutering will change the odor, and may reduce the cat’s motivation for spraying, but approximately 10% of neutered males and 5% of spayed females will continue urine spraying and marking. While cats in multiple cat households are often involved in spraying behaviors, cats that are housed singly may spray as well.

Can a neutered cat not Pee in the House?

Most cat owners assume that their cats will not urinate when they are neutered. The reality is, this is not the case. Just because they’re neutered does not mean that they will not urinate around the house. Cats have other motivations for urinating (or spraying) other than reproduction.

Why are neutered male cats more prone to urinary blockages?

Neutered male cats are especially prone to urinary blockage because they have may narrow urethras — so narrow that involuntary urethral muscle spasms can block the flow of urine.

What should I do if my male cat has an urinary blockage?

Once your cat is urinating normally, you’ll be able to bring them home. The vet will likely prescribe them antibiotics, pain medicine and/or medicine to relax the urethra, as well as recommend a therapeutic food formulated for urinary health. Unfortunately, once a male cat has a urinary blockage, there’s a higher risk of it happening again.

What can I use to stop my cat from peeing in the House?

A home remedy I use is homemade citrus cleaner made with orange peels. You can also use a good old-fashioned warm water and vinegar solution. Both are inexpensive and “green” alternatives to toxic chemical cleaning products. Even if you can’t smell it, your cat can. To make sure you got all the urine off the floor, use a black light.

Why is my male cat peeing on the floor?

As the emergency vet explained, male cats can have urine that forms crystals or debris which clumps together and can cause a blockage in the urethra (i.e. the narrow tube that leads urine out of the bladder). This can either partially or completely prevent male cats from urinating. A complete blockage is both painful and dangerous.
