Tips to stop your male cat from spraying.

You know you have a problem if you see your cat back up to a door or a wall or any other object in your house and lifts his tail and urinates.
 Unfortunetly, it is very common with indoor only cats. It is a problem that can be stopped.

 Most people think that spraying is a litter box issue. Actually it is a territory marking thing.
 Cats use their urine like people use signs saying keep out.
Every cat’s urine is different, sort of like  fingerprints on people.

Also another reason for your male cat spraying is for female cats in heat. Female cats in heat will seek out  a sprayed area. It’s the Male’s way of saying “Here I am come find me.”
 If you own a cat that freely goes both outdoors and indoors.
More often then not, your cat will spray outdoors.
The main issue with spraying is the smell is terrible to people, even if it is accepted by other cats.

If you have an indoor cat that sprays. You have a few options.
One of the most effective ways to stop your cat from spraying is to have him fixed.
More often then not, a male cat will stop spraying on the same day he has been neutered.

If you have a breed of cat that you want to stud out for service some day then neutering him is not the answer. In that case talk to your vet about other possibilities.

Ever since the beginning of story telling society has been conditioned to believe that an all black cat is evil.

 Some of the many ways are, associating black cats with witches and Halloween.
 Createing the superstition that you will have bad luck if a black cat crosses your path.

There are many beliefs and possibilities of satanic sacrifices around Halloween.
You hear the stories of the sacrificed item was in fact a live creature. And in alot of cases a BLACK cat.

This concern has been on the raise even more so in the last few years. To the point that  most animal shelters will not adopt out an all black cat during the month of October.

If you own a black cat and you let him/her outside. It may just be in your pet’s best interest to keep him/her indoors.
 As of lately we all have seen and heard cruelyy to cats more and more on the news, so we know it’s true.
There really is a possibility that your all black cat could be in danger if allowed to roam outside around Halloween.

If you have a friend that has a black cat. please offer this information to them as well.

 If we don’t protect our cats, who will?
