Answer
Sharon,

Have you had the cat in question to your vet to see if there is a medical problem?  Often, if the cat suddenly begins spraying when that had not happened before is could be an indicator of a urinary tract issue.

On the other hands did something happen about 6 months ago, like a new addition to the household (2 legged or 4 legged), or did a new cat start hanging around the house. or any other change you can think of (e.g. a change in the brand or type of litter)?

Any of these or other changes can set a cat off who had been perfectly happy.

I am supplying a link to a series of articles on litter box problem, including spraying.  There may be some suggestions in there.
