If you have a cat that sprays, get used to this! Just wait until he sprays your walls, basebords and furniture!

Kids N Pets is an awesome enzyme based solution you can get from WalMart. I have a bottle or two on hand at all times. Remember to shake the bottle well and soak the area... Wait a few minutes before wiping. Retreat if necessary.

I agree with Jeannette. That cat won't stop doing it....enerything in the house is gonna get it. Check with the vet about neutering the cat, and if he's already neutered, you've got a decision to make about the future of that cat. My boy cat sprayed the walks, doors, and thing sitting on the floor. Anything metal was etched by the ursine and rusted. My sewing machine...my luggage...my laundry basket full of clean clothes!! He finally got converted to a well cared for, outdoor-only kitty.

Since you've gotten some good answers about your sofa, I have some thoughts on your cat: Is this a sudden change in his behavior? Fixed males generally urinate in conspicuous places for two reasons, behavioral and physical. Any changes to the household? Is his litter box kept clean? Does he seem to have any discomfort while urinating? If he seems in pain, a trip to the vet is warranted because he may have urinary crystals. I hope this information is helpful to you.

Pick up an enzyme based cleaning solution - there are ones out there especially for cats and clean the couch thoroughly. It's odd that a neutered male would suddenly start spraying. Take him to the vet to make sure there isn't a bladder infection going on. Then add another litter box in a different location. He may not be liking the other one. Make sure both are scooped out every day. Good luck!

cats are sensitive to any change and if you have had a change in the enviroment in the house say another animal or even another male in the house, try the vet to see if he has anything wrong as suggested. I have a neutered boy and he sprayed when we had an entire male in the house but seems to have stopped since we took the entire male out to the cattery. as sugested enzime products are good but if he is set in his ways and it is not medical then yes he may have to be an outside cat

Be careful what you put on your leather sofa. When ever you put something on leather it stains....even water. Just saying...
