best long term solution is talk to the owner of the cat, if you know who, and get it fixed. If a stray try and catch it and then off to get fixed. If a stray and desexed it may end up a 1/2 decent pet.

Ugh, tom cats keep spraying our dining room window, where our cat looks outside. What can we use to get rid of the smell and what can we use to repel them? TIA
a .22 works nicely.
cayanne pepper on the ledge?
Repellant, 5 mins in the back room of an Animal Shelter. Get a live-trap, and get rid of them.
As for the smell, they sell enzyme based cleaners at some pet stores, you might want to try that.

Be very careful that you don't accidentally leave a dish of antifreeze laying around. Poor cats may drink it.
anyone who does that should first be made to drink the anti-freeze themselves Dave just to make sure it would harm anyone. Maybe leave a few cans of beer spiked with anti-freeze round.

Go pee on your window yourself. Once the cat decides that a large smell primate is on the prowl, it may decide to go away. It works well in keeping rabbits out of my garden....
I suggest you do this at night...
