Hello,
So let me start by saying that I have read many threads about this issue. Including the links about possible causes and such. But I would like to specify my issue because it can be quite complicated. Thanks for spending your time.
It started about 2 months ago. My male cat which is about 1 years old started peeing on the corners of the house. We took him to the vet and had him neutered. Then he kept peeing on the corners. He also started peeing on the carpets, curtains and the couch. But not all of them, only one specific curtain and one specific couch.
We thought maybe he feels imprisoned (purely indoors cat) and decided to let him on the balcony so he can relax. He goes out quite a lot. The balcony usually has other "street" cats that sit there but he doesn't seem to have a problem with them. I should also point out that the glass door for the balcony is right next to the curtain and the couch he likes to pee on.
Now, there are three more issues.
First, we have another cat (female, 5 years old, neutered, indoors) that doesn't like my male cat AT ALL although he doesn't have a problem with her.
Second, sometimes we let another male cat in (unneutered). Him and my male-peeing cat pretty much grew up together. Never had an issue with one another. They play and clean each other up.
Thirdly, there is another male kitty. He is a very good cat so we pity him and let him in for some hours during the day. He doesn't get along with my male-peeing cat at all. They fight quite a lot.
I thought maybe he is stressed but he doesn't seem like it. He is still playful and cuddly. He always want us to pet him. He goes to his litter to poop and he eats/drinks normally.
Half of the family is about to kick him out cause this problem. That will be bad since I live on a street with a lot of traffic (and dead cats).
I think that is all. For any questions or a better explanation, please let me know.
Thanks a lot for your time, any answers will be much appreciated!
