First of all... long time no see, TheCatSiters.
I have a problem. I currently own 5 cats. 3 kittens (2 male, one female), one adult male, and one adult female. Both of my adults are spayed/neutered, the kittens are not. Kittens are roughly 5 months old (Kittens are scheduled to be fixed soon as well).
My adult male has recently started spraying again. He did a lot of spraying just before his surgery, then it tapered off and suddenly he's doing it again, and trying to constantly mount the female kitten (though not the female adult). The kitten does not seem to be in heat, and she's not at all receptive to him. The two male kittens don't seem to show any interest in her other than the usual playfulness.
My questions are these:
Why is he spraying again?
How can I get him to stop?
What can I do about the smell? It's everywhere now. >.<
Also, he sprayed a leather coat... short of dry cleaning, does anyone know a way to get the smell out without ruining the coat?
