Why is my unneutered male cat peeing outside the litter box?

My male cat storm is peeing everywhere around the house. He does use litter box also. I clean the litter box 2 times a day minimum. Can you please tell me what is wrong and how can it be stopped. Pet's info: Cat | Maine Coon | Male | unneutered | 11 months and 29 days old | 1lb

I see Storm isn't neutered. Male intact cats often mark their territory with their urine, and that may be what he is doing. It could also be he has feline idiopathic cystitis or bladder stones. I'd have him seen by a vet to get checked out for those two medical illness and to discuss having him neutered.
