Why do cats spray and what can you do?
If there is a lingering smell of cat urine in your home and you are sitting with your hands in your hair, not knowing what to do, your cat might be guilty of spraying. As much as we love them, this is one behaviour that makes cat owners shudder.
Why do cats spray?
Several factors in your cat’s life can cause her to spray. These include:
HEALTH PROBLEMS
With all behaviour problems it is important to first rule out a health problem that can cause the unwanted behaviour. In the case of cats and spraying, a urinary tract infection might be the culprit. The discomfort your cat experiences might cause her to not make it to the litter tray or an appropriate spot in time.
PRIVACY
Cats are quite classy when it comes to their bathroom habits. She might not feel comfortable with where you have placed her litter tray. Make sure to regularly clean it and place it in a spot where she won’t be bothered by other pets and people.
