Advantages Of Neutering Your Male Cat
Most male animals that are not used for breeding purposed are castrated or neutered, so that they can no
longer impregnate a female. For cats, especially, this is crucial. There are thousands of kittens
every year that go without homes.
There are many advantages to neutering your male cat, and the process is quite safe. So unless you
are breeding your cats, you
should consider it if your furry feline friend is male and not yet neutered.
Male cats that have not yet been neutered are called tomcats. Simply put, it can be difficult to
live with a tomcat, no matter how well trained he may be. When your cat is not neutered,
he will want to get outside as frequently as possible to mate with female cats in heat. This can be
disastrous if you live in a busy street with lots of traffic or if your cat is not used to being outdoors.
Tomcats also roam a lot, meaning that they may travel far distances in search of female cats.
It is possible for your cat to roam too far and not know his way home. It is also possible for him
simply to resist coming home at all, since he will be shut indoors. To protect your male cat, neutering
it is the best choice.
Tomcats also fight and are generally more aggressive than neutered cats. Because they want sexual
dominance in a particular area, they may seek fights with other male cats to drive them away.
Cats will fight to the death, if they feel threatened... Fights cause not only injuries, but also
the spread of diseases like the FeLV virus, which can be fatal. Neutering your cat will not stop an
aggressive cat from being less aggressive toward humans, but it will prevent your cat from actively
seeking fights with other male cats in the neighborhood.
Vasectomies are not done with male cats. Rather, the simple neutering procedure will remove the male
reproductive organs, which are easily accessible in most tomcats. In some cases, more extensive
surgery has to be done, because the organs have not developed and descended correctly. The removal
of these organs is what causes the changing in male hormones through a cats body, changing
the cats behavior. Sterilization is not enough, because the cat won't notice the difference
and will still seek to fight and mate.
Your vet can tell you more about this procedure,
but all in all, it is the best choice for any cat, since there are already so many
homeless cats in the world.
