I have used 'clonicalm' for overgrooming.  But I didn't like the side effects 
of that either.  Spraying is such a problem!  I'm sure there must be something 
to help.  Has she tried putting a scratching post or food by where he sprays?

          Dear all
  Has anyone ever used a kitty "Prozac" such as fluoxetine? One of my 
co-workers whose cat has always been a sprayer--and she's had him for YEARS, 
kudos to her---was thrilled when 1/2 tab fluoxetine daily fixed the behavior 
almost immediately. Unfortunately he began foaming at the mouth at the same 
time, so she stopped using it after a few days.
  Does anyone have any experience in using an alternative "prozac" that worked 
for spraying without causing foaming or other adverse side-effects. She says 
she's going to the vet to ask about a different one after she returns from 
vacation, and I thought I'd try picking your brains before she went. I think 
it's wonderful that--unlike so many people--she's committed to her cat despite 
his spraying.
  I have a sprayer too, but he's feral, so there's nothing I can use (he's not 
into any sort of treat on a regular basis, and he turned his nose up at 
Pillpockets) apart from a dividing line between him and the cause of his 
behavior, my other cats. He has his own loyal buddy, a female, Momcat, so he's 
pretty content on the whole, I think.
  Anyway, thanks for any other "prozac" ideas!
  Kerry
