If your vet has ruled out a urinary tract infection than he is probably just marking his territory. You could try an Adaptil collar and see if that helps. Your vet could also prescribe a drug like Prozac or Trazodone and see if that helps. Otherwise, you may need to put him in a belly band while he is inside to prevent him from marking.
