My friend have this domestic shorthair male cat for 5 years(adopted from shelter), never bring him in for neutering. She thinks itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s a cruel thing to do and the cat is not “whole†after the surgery. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve been telling her that I always read that cats who r neutered live longer, healthier and behave better. She thinks that the vets say this becuz they just want to earn money from the surgeries. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve been persuading her to have him neutered over the past 5 years and I even offer to bring the cat in to the vet if she canâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t do it herself. She agreed to think about it, but still havneâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t make up her mind.
The strange thing is, the cat has NEVER sprayed. He lives with a spayed female but never attempt to mount her, but he bites her every once in a while. My friend did mentioned that he tried to mount a neutered male cat b4, but that was years ago. And he seems to be scare of the two female cats living next door.
My question is, how come this cat never sprayed?? Never attempt to run out from home to find some female? Is he sterile? And if he is sterile, is he still at risk of of getting testicle cancers / prostate cancers like those who r not neutered?
