Ok so I have a 6 month old female and a 3-4 month old male. I know that Stella has already gone into heat and she is getting spayed this coming Tuesday. They play together and sleep next to each other and groom each other, but I have never seen anything that would indicate mating behavior between them. (Not that I'm an expert) I knew that female kittens could get pregnant pretty early but I thought that male kittens didn't reach sexual maturity until around 7-8 months? Anyway, I assumed that Oscar was too young for me to be worry about keeping them separated. Tonight however, they were play fighting like usual, and Stella started making that sort of cooing sound that females make. At first Oscar was just continuing to play, but then he started climbing on her back so I separated them immediately and now they are in different rooms. Did I make a mistake? Is he old enough to mate with her? I am really worried now!!
I should also probably mention that he has not shown any signs of sexual maturity (spraying, trying to escape, etc) and if Stella is walking around the house yowling, he never acts interested. Just normal kitten antics.
