Have a Bengal who has been fixed. He definitely has issues, however. We've learned to live with his constant spraying (keeping him outside as much as possible; he never sprayed before he was fixed!!!). He loves being outside.
For the past half-a-year or so, he has been getting overly aggresive in rubbing his nose against things when he is outside. Pretty sure he's marking his territory, but his now his nose is constantly bleeding and raw. Tried putting a cone around his neck to give his nose time to heal. He managed to find a way to continue to rub his nose. He now has a larger cone around his neck, but he's still somehow finding a way around it to continue rubbing.
His environment is the same as it has been since he was a kitten. The vet tried a few drugs to help minimize the spraying a few years back, but not only did they not help the spraying, but the drugs turned our poor cat into a zombie, so we decided to leave him off the drugs. His diet hasn't changed either.
Anybody have any ideas?
At wit's end.
