Glad to hear kitties are healthy.
Strays in the neighborhood can and will spray doors and windows. Cat spray is much more concentrated thatn urine adn all you have to do is walk by an area that was sprayed by another cat and you bring that scent into the house with you. Cats noses are extremely sensitive and this could be causing problems between you cats. They smell a feline intruder that has essentially marked "their" territory and it's also on you whether you realize it or not! They will fight between themselve due to the stress and anxiety,a s well as when your cats see them outside. Some cats will even attack thier owners due to this. I am not sure how to stop the strays from marking your house, perhaps someone else has been able to dter this behavior or search online. I do know that bleach or vinegar seem to clean an area very well and eliminate the urine smell so you may want to wash down your doors and window sills outside. Besure to get an extended area beyond just the door jam.

Anyone else with ideas of deterring strays from marking?
