My cat suddenly started to smell horrendous!
Hi there. Hopefully someone can help me.
I have a 3 1/2 year old male cat who was desexed as early as we were able to get it done and within the past two weeks he has started to smell horrible. it's not a poop smell; its just a bad smell. I think its like that male spray smell but he has never sprayed before. He is considered weak since he's half rag-doll and thus doesn't fight other cats; but he does get picked on. Is it possible that other male cats are spraying him?
And HOW do I get rid of the smell? He is a very well-loved cat; constantly being hugged and all but this smell is deterring all of us from him. I'm worried about bathing because I think the shock of being in water will freak him out but if it'll help; I'll do it!
any help or information is much appreciated.
thank you!

I have this spray on stuff that is for cats and dogs and it works wonders. My cat doesnt mind it too much, although he gets frustrated with me sometimes. After you do it, brush him if you have a cat brush, then love and cuddle with him. Let him know you didnt spray him for punishment.

Since he is 3 1/2 sometimes when you spay (desex) a male cat when he is older he will continue to spray or radiate that smell. To get rid of the smell I suggest mean green you can get it at the dollar store for cheap mix two cap fulls and water in a spray bottle and spray wherever the smell is bad and wash you cat with dawn dish soap i know sounds crazy but it works. its either him or other cats but that will get rid of the smell. And if your worried about the shock af the water, when you put him into the tub to wash him already have water in the tub so the noise doesnt scare him. then slowly submerge him in water all the while talk sweetly to him and pet him. Hope this is helpfull to you

I don't know how you'd stop other males from spraying him, but you can give him a bath.
Yes, he'll be freaked out. You may want to have a helping hand in bathing him.
When I had cats who came indoors, I gave them baths with cat shampoo, whether they liked it or not. They didn't like it, more often than not, but you can't have your cat smelling foul. Makes it hard to give him all those hugs if they stink.
