Yes - there's a risk, sorry! :?

My male cat began spraying when another male cat sneaked in to our house one night. Since then, he's never really settled and feels the need to define his territory quite often, mostly outdoors but sometimes inside!

Spraying is a natural instinct for a cat, particularly if the cat is stressed or territorial.
Plus, neutering only works to stop agressive and territorial behaviour in around 80% of cats. That leaves around 20% that will still behave how they did before they had the 'snip'
It's usually male cats that spray, but females can do it too, it's just not as common.
If you do get the dreaded 'spray' anywhere near those expensive speakers, i'd suggest a solution of biological washing powder and hot water to clean the area, then use a spray, at cat nose height, (such as Feliway) which mimics the cats happy scent, therefore reducing the cats need to mark their territory.
Works for us, although we still have the odd 'accident'.
I assume (and hope) that he'll grow out of it one day! :wink:

Will your cat be allowed outside? If your cat will be indoor only, then there will be less chance of it spraying, as long as he/she doesn't see all the rival cats out the window. :wink:
Another thing you can do is provide a vertical flat surface specifically for the cat to spray.

Hope this helps - and good luck. :D

Hi

Not being a high end speaker person, I agree with Paddy. :D

But

Re the speakers and a kitten:-

Make sure that there aren't any wires sticking out, she will chew them.
Anything that she can scratch/claw, she will.
If she can knock them over, jump on them, she will.
That goes for any other high end products that you may have lying around.

As for the spraying, if she is neutered then she is probably less likely then a male to spray, but that is only probably as we had a neutered female moggy at home who was as bad as any male, only not quite so smelly.
Unneutered females often spray when on heat.

Saying this she may turn out to be a little angel and your speakers will be safe :D

Neither our male or female have sprayed anywhere.... our male one has pee'd a couple of times in places he shouldn't have, but is wasn't a spray.....

I'd say it would be fairly unlikely for a female to spray up said speakers - especially if she is "done" at the right time..

PS $10,000 speakers - that's quite impressive 8) I used to be an audiophile myself, but I don't have room for it anymore :mrgreen:

Hi

Spraying isn't a kitten problem, it happens as they sexually mature, so you have quite a few months to persuade your bf to rid himself of the burden of the speakers :-)

Elsa

PS the speakers do look spectacular though.
