I am cluless as to how to stop my bengal from urine spraying. He does not have a health issue, it is strictly behavioral. Amytriptyline does not work. Rescue Rmedy an other essessences have not worked. He uses the litter box. But he is spraying different areas around the house and if I clean it and move furniture there he just finds another spot. I have Feliway plugs-in all over, I use Feliway spray daily and clean with Simple Solution. Yesterday I got so frustrated that I gave him the evil eye, yelled (not all that loud, but sternly) at him and to make my point I slammed a door. He stood right in front of me at that exact moment and sprayed on the wall 2 feet away from me! So I know getting frustrated on my part won't help...He is neutered, has been since 5 months old. Any ideas, options?

Are there any other cats in the house?

There are 5. One age 19 neutered male, then the bengal, male age 9. Introduced male 2.5 years ago as a kitten neutered at 5 mo old, female spayed 1 year old introduced last summer and a new foster kitten last month he will be spayed 7-30-06.
The bengal's spraying excalates at the time of introduction, but he never seems to quite get over it no latter how long the other cats have been here, despite extra attention and every precaution. Probably just have to live with it or can I try to crate him, although he seems to spray mostly when I'm home probably because the foster kitten is locked up until I get home. The two play together, have slept together... kinda at my wits end and tired of cleaning. I've used Simple Solution, Petastic, SpotShot, jstu about everything. THANKS!

He's trying to claim some space for himself. That's his way of putting his name on the door, and telling you, in his opinion, your house is getting too crowded.

Thanks. He must want to be an only cat because he's done this when there was only one other cat in the house. So I guess I'll just deal with it and give him extra love and attention.
