How to stop cat spraying and inappropriate urination in your home?

Question

How do I get my cats to STOP spraying/peeing other than the litter box? It doesn't smell like pee, smells like spray. I clean the litter daily and change it out often. I have 4 cats. One of them likes spraying in my room, same spot. So I lock my door. All are fixed. What to do? And it's SO hard cleaning/getting rid of the smell with ANYTHING.

If you have not tried Feliway, I would do that for sure. This stuff is amazing! http://www.feliway.com/uk/Cat-Behavior/How-to-stop-cat-spraying With behavioral spraying many times it is due to stress. The Feliway can help calm and relieve stress. You may also have to make some environmental changes - one thing that happens when people have multiple cats is that they don't have enough litter boxes. Technically the rule of thumb is that you should have one box per cat PLUS one. So with 4 cats you should have 5 litter boxes and some with different litter and in different locations.
