Hello,
My cat is, Loki is almost 3 years old. We adopted him from a rescue when he was 4 months old. He is afraid of his own shadow but he is very playful. He rips out his fur when he gets aggravated or doesn't get his way. After having him a few months we found out he was peeing on the floors, but only along the walls. I also caught him spraying a few times (he was neutered as a kitten). He is an indoor only cat. I've tried everything I could find to fix the problem. Vet suggested Feliway plug in. He sprayed it. I put on a feliway collar and he managed to get out of it. He has been tested multiple times for urinary problems and is always negative. He has been on 5mg of prozac daily for about a year. The peeing and spraying stopped immediately. He still pulls out his fur. Recently i caught him peeing on the floor so I started confining him to "his" bathroom at night. The peeing outside the box stopped. I have got the odors out of my carpet with a home made remedy. This morning after my husband let Loki out of his bathroom, he came into our bedroom. I had just opened the door to come out of the master bath when he had just sprayed the wall behind the door. He knew he didn't something wrong because he ran when he saw me.
I honestly don't know what to do anymore. I am considering weaning him off the prozac since it doesn't seem to be working like it did. Any advice or insight would be so appreciated. I love my Loki. He is my snuggle buddy but I get so aggravated with the peeing outside his litter box. He has 3 boxes to choose from.
