My 4 year old bengal has suddenly started peeing (in a way that sprays out like he's marking his territory) everywhere. He's neutered. I'm so distraught please please help.
He has inappropriately sprayed before, but cleaning it up and putting him in time out in the bathroom has always made him stop. Since last week nothing has worked.
Thankfully he doesn't pee/spray in our bedroom so for the last week we have kept him cooped up in our room. He's a bengal with lots of energy so I feel terrible doing that, but the moment we let him out of the room he runs downstairs and pees somewhere. I started following him around to keep an eye on him because he wouldn't do it in front of me, but now he does it right in front of me. ITS LIKE HE'S COMPELLED TO DO IT, LIKE HE HAS TO DO IT.
I'm at the end of my wits. I've had him checked for a UTI, I've tried feliway, I've tried punishing him, spraying him with water. What do I do?!
