what age do male cats start spraying

Male cats can start spraying as early as 5 months or as late as 9 months, but most male cats start spraying when they reach sexual maturity, which is usually around 6 months old. However, its important to note that spraying behavior can also occur in female cats, even after they have been spayed. If you want to prevent your cat from spraying, its recommended to have them neutered or spayed before they reach sexual maturity, which is around 4 to 5 months of age or when your veterinarian recommends the procedure.
