    One of our voluteers took a male Oriental Short Hair stud when they were "done" with him. He was neutered and good about not spraying for quite a while until one of her fosters went into heat before a spay date could be gotten. The OSH began spraying and continued for the rest of his life.

    So it is iffy. I would just go through with the neutering, give him time to get the hormones (and the smell) out, and then just see how well he uses the box. Just a thought, covered boxes might work best as he may continue to stand while peeing. (I have had a couple that do that).

    GOOD LUCK! He is beautiful.

    Thanks Jen. He is definitely getting neutered ... then I guess time will tell. It's sounding more and more like he may be a permanent backyard "sprayer" then. Oh well, at least our fenceline will be clearly marked!

    My goodness, he's fantastic! Beautiful, though seeing a bengal makes me miss my Lock so much more than normal. I hope the neutering helps with his spraying. How awesome it would be if you could keep him yourself. Whatever happens, I hope he's able to find a home and get over his infection. Glad the other two kitties were placed, though...

    What a handsome cat! He does have that 'wild' look about him, though. O well, he's only doing what comes naturally to him, can't fault him for that.

    Samson, you are gorgeous!

    I wonder how many others that breeder has business with?

    Isn't that strange that the hunkiest cats have the tiniest meows?

    Well, let HOPE that it is the male in him, combined with the URI that has him spraying and ones everything is "fixed" he will stop that spraying. He is STUNNING! If he don't stop, there are people looking for outside babies so don't give up on him. He took my breath away with his markings, he is so STUNNING!
