Fix My Tomcat or Not?

Question

I have a 6 months old male Persian cat,I am so afraid of him being matured 'cause I have read about male cats spraying during their mating time.I want to know how long is their mating time and if I let him mate he will continue spraying or not?and if he mates one time he is satisfied or he still like to mate?( I keep him at home)

Answer 1

Do it!!

He will start to spray when he is about 9 months old and it is not simple pee - it is highly pungent and he will be marking his territory which will include the whole house and possibly you as well... Male cats do not have mating seasons - they are permanently on heat. Also, once he starts spraying he will continue even if you have him fixed later so get it done quickly.

Answer 2

PLEASE GET YOUR CAT NEUTERED!  there are too many unwanted kittens in this world as it is, PLEASE DON'T ADD MORE.

get him into the vets to be neutered today or tomorrow.

Answer 3

Neuter him. Unlike females, a male is ready to 'go' all the time. And it will save you behavior troubles, such as spraying.

Answer 4

When he comes of age, he's going to spray regardless of if he mates or not.  Male cats spray because they are sexually mature, not because they come into season like a female does.  They become very territorial and aggressive, and mark their territory by spraying.  He's also going to become desperate to get out so that he can find a female, and fight other males.  Unneutered male animals are not pleasant house pets.  Get him neutered now and you won't have a house that reeks of cat spray.

Answer 5

Your cat is no different from any other male, ie will go and mate any chance he gets. So get him fixed as he will wander in search for a mate and can go missing for days, and he may spray constantly.  It is also better to prevent unwanted pregnancies of common moggies.

Answer 6

Why have a cat if you don't like the way the animal is.

Let it spray in the back yard and keep an eye on it when its in side
