cats spray to mark territory. a good way to stop it is to have him fixed. once hes fixed hell stop spraying. another good way to stop him is to put mothball where he sprays. this smell makes them go away.

When looking on google,I serached 'cat spray' and found lots. Here is some information I found...

'Cats sometimes engage in a behavior called urine spraying or urine marking. The cat stands, backs up to an object, holds his tail up erect and quivering, and releases urine out backwards onto the object. The urine sprayed differs chemically from the urine cats normally release from a squatting position because it also contains oily secretions from the anal glands. Sprayed urine is extremely pungent. Some people describe it as smelling like ammonia; others say it has a heavy musky odor.'

There is much more useful information where I got that from such as "what to do" and "what NOT to do". Check out this site : [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

Welp, me also being the proud owner of a cat, I had to take my male down to get "fixed", he also started to spray, this was long time ago actually, but he stopped spray'n...see he's marking his territory..believe or not, and being in your closet says it all, your clothes are in there...see your his property...get it...so my advice is make an appointment with the vet. its, time to get "Fluffy" snipped...Its better than havin cat "jiz" all over your wardrobe...right...good luck

Maybe you could try shutting your closet door, eh?
He probably did it once, and then went back there and smelled the odor from the previous time, and then did it again. Try cleaning the whole area with bleach, if he can't smell it, he probably won't do it again.
