I'm lucky to have a pretty good cat. sorry about the lamp, Bobert. Actually, my cat snipped the cord to a thermometer when he was a kitten. He's thankfully gotten out of the biting phase though.

Er, Shanghaiceltic, if he's had his bits snipped off, he's not a tom anymore. He's definitely a bothersome sprayer, though. You could try putting something citrussy where he sprays; cats hate the smell of orange or lemon.

Other than that ... I guess keep him out of the study.

Don't try using strong cleaners to get rid of the scent; they don't. I don't know if you can find enzymes where you are for getting rid of this sort of thing, but they work best.
