Hmmm...peeing where they shouldn't when a cat is neutered and has plenty of access to clean litter boxes and no urinary infection is usually as sign of a cat in distress.
And after your last post, it sounds like we've found the source of that stress: your baby is being bullied!
If it's possible, find a way of allowing your kitty to have some safe time outside where he isn't at risk of running into the other moggy. If you know to whom it belongs, you could even gently approach them, explain the situation and see if you could reach an agreement whereby their moggy is kept in during certain hours to allow yours some free time outside to have fun.
Making your cat feel secure again is your goal, and reading up on cat behaviour will give you a clearer idea of how to do this. I can highly recommend 'The Cat Whisperer' by Claire Bessant, if it's available in the US. It helped us cure the problem of Felix peeing on our bed in full view of us when he was a kitten. I suppose you have to think of it a bit like if your child was bed wetting - symptomatic of a deeper issue.
