I have a five-month old male (whole at this point) named Moose who has a
strange and rather disgusting habit.  I've often picked him up and found his
fur around the underside of his hind quarters wet with urine, like he'd peed
himself.  I didn't think he was incontinent, since the bedding doesn't get
wet, and I finally figured it out yesterday.  I picked him up in the
forbidden bathroom and found him wet again.  After washing him off, I
noticed a trail of smeared urine from one of the preferred corners across
the linoleum like it had been painted with a brush.  It looks like he's
peeing, then dragging his body through it.  Is this some sort of weird
territory-marking behavior that'll go away when he's fixed?  I don't think
my three-year-old male did this before *he* was neutered.  Any comments?
