Yes he has been neutered for almost as long as we have had him.I will give the multiple box idea a try and take it from there.Chrisplosion;4864822; said:

Good, but if he doesn't improve within a day or two, it's time for the vet. I'm a vet myself, and I'm always impressed by how well animals hide their pain. They are much more stoic than humans are. He may be hiding a real problem.
When my friends cat started doing this she took her into the vet and it turned out she had a UTI and also had diabetes. Definately would take him in to have his levels checked.
Yes and even though they need us,they are tougher than we are.Natalie;4865869; said:

I have three cats. One is an older male 7 or so. He was doing this exact thing. The problem was his scent glands, inside his 'buttox'. He was neutered when I bought him from humane society at 2 yrs. old. Anyway, the vet had to 'express' the stuff from the glands. WAS EXTREMELY GROSS ! ! ! 
The thing is, if I hadn't brought him in, vet said the glands could actually have BURST!, could have caused serious infection or death. The reason they don'y want to go potty in their box= they associate the pain with the cat poo box after a while!
