Do Girl Cats Spray?

Spraying is not limited to any cat in particular - both male and female cats sometimes spray. Even if your cat has been spayed or neutered, they may sometimes show spraying behavior.

Why do female cats spray?

The more territorial your cat is, the more likely it is that she'll mark her territory. Unneutered cats and cats living in multi-cat households are more likely to spray to mark their territory.

Do female spayed cats spray?

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.
