sterilization(stirosis) to male cats?

if a cat isn't fixed he will be exposed to many diseases he would not be otherwise exposed because he won't be out fighting. I have 28 cats or is that 27... all the adults are fixed and the 3 kittens will be fixed as soon as they are old enough.

Hi zouna5, It is better for the to be ssterilised as it is good for the cat and for the female, but you know the still have their urges, my tom cat is always trying it on with my female cat allthough they have both been done, it is the best thing for the cat and I think humans should take a leaf out of the cats book and get themselves done as well, too many people in this world.

I have a 10 year old male cat. I thought it was against nature to sterilize him. So I never did it. Results... The cat has been fighting with every male cat he could find for 10 years. This has cause me a lot of stress... Plus a lot of vetenary bills. I moved to the bush... and thought that would be the end of it. Not so... He went to look for the feral cats. Then he bought a feral female home. Had 5 kittens with her... who then had another 7. So now I have 10 cats. Luckily... 4 have disappear in the bush... or I would have 14. And this is not over by a long shoot. Do I need to say more?

well..i've had 11 males out of 13 cats,all were neutered.. and i can say they seemed much calmer,weren't as liable to fight with the others,and seemed to live much longer than if they always had the mating instinct going. if you have no intention of breeding,i would say have him done.

Neutering of male cats helps to cut down on the number of strays. Most important, though, is that it diminishes the urge to fight other males. Usually, a neutered male is quite content to stay inside with his humans. Our last two cats were neutered when they were still young and would not go outside even if the door was left open.

Please neauter your cat!! It is much, much healthier for them and there is absolutely no need for them to reproduce. Male cats who are unneautered will get more diseases (ask a vet), and they will spray which is unpleasant. And there is noooo need to them to mate. The fact that it's an instinct, not a desire should support that. It's not as though they've thought it out and plan to settle down and have kids like people do. And after the procedure they don't have that drive anymore, anyway. And kittens may be cute, but what will you do with them? You can't keep them all, and it's hard to find homes for them. Everyday humane societies have to put cats and dogs to sleep because there are just soo many and there is no way to find homes for them all and they don't have the money to keep them all. It's really the best, most responsible choice to neuter your pet. There are only benefits, no downsides.

You neuter male cats to reduce aggression and wandering. You want to slow down the mating of cats and dogs because so many of them are homeless and have to be euthanized. There are not enough people in the world to take care of all the kittens and puppies that non neutered cats and dogs produce.

all the male cats i have had were sterilized. if you dont they can make babies and there are already enough cats that need home and plus they spray when they are not.

It's much better to get a male cat fixed than not...I saw in one of your other responses how you know someone with an unfixed female cat and the idea of his"doing his thing" so she can have kittens...really bad move there. There are so many unwanted pets in the world and shelters are overflowing with pets that are eventually put down (euthanized)--even in so-called no-kill shelters. Rather than bring in more kittens in the world if people want one they should adopt from a shelter One very good prime reason though to get a male cat fixed...the spraying. Unfixed male cats will spray their strong urine all over the place to mark their territory and can really stink up a place in no time PS--saw your blog and had fun playing that kitty game...LOL
