Ozone Generator -vs- Cat Urine Spray?

I was hoping to get some advice regarding the effectiveness of a small
Ozone Generator to deal with the smell of Cat Urine Spray indoors.....by
a de-sexed male cat. He is deliberately spraying, not simply taking a
much-needed piss. He is spraying on vertical surfaces.
There is almost nothing I don't know about the "territorial behaviour
issues", prevention, and cleaning. I have spoken to the local Vet in
great detail. I use an arsenal of special cleaners, and a Pheromone
preventative spray. I have also done a great deal of personal
research. Getting rid of the cat is definitely not an option.
Can you comment about Ozone Generators and their effectiveness? Bottom
line: If the Cat spraying is a persistent problem, is a small Ozone
Generator (with thorough cleaning) money well spent?
Thanks.

Who desexed him? It may have been the civic-minded thing to do, but
did he go voluntarily?

If the cat were telling you what it thinks of being desexed, making it
breathe ozone until dead might cure the problem. As an occasional
area-wide treatment of unoccupied spaces, ozone works well. Otherwise
it is hazardous to breathe, hard on most polymers (like carpet
backing), and not a good idea as you intend.

Change cats. Preferably for a dog. Of course, they "mark" if male...

You should have had your cat neutered much earlier. My vet says 4
months old is the right time. If you fail to neuter him or do it too
late that is what happens.

Of course you cannot get rid of the cat. It is your responsiblity
to give him a lifetime home. A cat that sprays is a big problem for
which there are few good solutions. You can try the ozone generator
for sure. Try everthing else you can think of as well. It will not
change the cats behaviour.

The cat is mad at you. Sometimes giving the cat some quality time
will change his behaviour. When you come home, immediatly pick the
cat up and give lots of scratches on his head and ears. Then carry
him to the bedroom and let him on your chest for a little while giving
him lots of pets. If you have been using a spray bottle to keep him
off the counters, stop doing that and all other negative style
training.

Keeping interior doors closes will confine the cat and his undesirable
activities. Something cat enthusiasts often do is give the cat his
own room complete with other cats and large climbing posts and
playthings he can play on. Then he stays in that room forever. Many
people will put down a cat that pisses on the family belongings. You
won't do it and neither will I but it is the only permanent
solution.

Yes, but as the owner of the cat, you get to decide just how long that
lifetime is.

Enjoy the next 15 years of smelling cat piss and the joy you bring to the
potential owners of the home when you go to sell the place.

they come up with this striped stuff.
