When our female cat was about 7 mo old, we brought home a male kitten. She didn't like him at first, but then she began mothering him (i.e. cleaning him and having him nurse on her). At first we thought it was really cute, but now the male is about 6 months old and she still bathes him and allows him to try and nurse off of her. The female has become quite mature now and he is coming into his maturity. We are going to have them fixed very soon here so we don't end up with kittens. What I want to know is when we get them fixed, will it curve this behavior?
Also, will getting them fixed drastically change their personalities?
Also, since our male has slowly started to become more mature, he is more distant with us, as just a couple weeks ago, he was a total sweetie, always wanting attention. Our female is still sweet as can be, so what's with the attitude change in him? Any advice will be helpful. I've never had more than one cat at a time before.
