Spraying.
Spraying is a normal feline behaviour used as part of a complex behavioural repertoire of scent communication. It is recognised in species ranging from large wild cats such as lions and tigers to the domestic moggie. Although it is more commonly associated with the male of the species and has often been attributed solely to unneutered (entire) tom-cats, it is in fact practised by the majority of cats, be they male, female, neutered or entire at some point in their life.

Time to let go.
In an ideal world, our cats would die peacefully in their sleep after a long and happy life. But sometimes they die prematurely through illness, accidents or self-neglect. Equally sadly, some cats go missing, never to return.
Losing your cat suddenly, without warning, makes it even harder to let go. Often you are left feeling that you've been unable to say goodbye properly. Which is why Cats Protection has produced this practical guide to support you through this difficult time and help you cope with your feelings of loss.
