Hey everyone, I am in desperate need of help.
I have a persian cat, whose coming up for 2yrs old in feb.
The problem is in the last 2 months he starts howling at night and a good chunk of the day too, he's desperate to go outside and he's started spraying in most if not all the rooms in the house.
I got him neutered in July of last year or so i thought, i was told that only one testicle had descended and to come back at a later date to complete the procedure.
Took him back at the beginning of this month to discover that he only ever had one testicle!
His behaviour is that of a tomcat though.............
We cant let him outside as there are a lot of stray cats in the area, some of which sleep around the house. He often get's into fights with these strays, when i say fights their one-way fights. He always get's 'beaten up'.
From what i've read online he wants to mate.....but if he was neutered then shouldnt these urges have gone?
There's a possibility that the other testicle is in his body, most likely the abdomen however I have been informed by a vet that no sperm could be produced at the temp present at that part of the body.
I need help to stop this behaviour, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Ps. I'm living in a family member's house therefore I feel responsible for the cat as I was the one that brought him into this house.
