what if i dont get my cat desexed?

Answer 1

You did not specify whether your cat is a male or a female.

If your cat is a male I recommend you have him neutered as soon as the vet says he is old enough. They no longer remove the entire testicles, they just make a tiny incision and remove the inner portion, because if you don't he will spray urine all over the house. If you wait too long after the vet says he is old enough, even if you get him neutered, he may still spray urine all over the house.

If your cat is a female and is a house cat, as opposed to a cat that goes outdoors and could become pregnant, I recommend you do not have her spayed. Spaying is a major operation for a female cat requiring the abdomen to be cut open. Although most animal advocates will make the argument that if you don't get her spayed she will be at risk for developing cancer, I found the exact opposite to be true. The female cats who were spayed developed complications and chronic diseases that shortened their life span dramatically whether or not the operation was performed by an inexpensive clinic or expensive animal hospital with top surgeons. The female cats who were not spayed scream and yell when they go into heat, but lived a healthy and extremely long life span. Also be sure to put "break-away" cat collars with ID tags on them because they may also try to slip out the door when you open it to look for a mate so you need to be extremely careful when you open and shut the door especially when they are in heat or keep them in a back room with it's own door away from the main front door.

I regret buying into the spay and neuter all cats propaganda perpetuated by animal groups which is however based on a noble reason-- to reduce the large unwanted cat population which then has to be destroyed. I only wish I had not learned that spayed cats live a shorter life than unspayed cats through heartbreaking trial and error, and that someone who actually had experience with numerous cats living with them would have shared this knowledge with me many years ago. I currently have 9 cats with a few of them as old as 30 years old, yes 30 years old and I have the veterinary records to prove it. Also I recommend 9 Lives "Urinary" health formula "dry" cat food which truly prevents many diseases that cats both male and female often succumb to. I also recommend you start "brushing" your cat's teeth while they are still kittens to get them used to it because both male and female cats often succumb to gum and tooth disease as well. Do not use human toothpaste, you must use flavored cat toothpaste you can get inexpensively at the pet shop or on line. Also you need to keep them flea and worm free. I also recommend Front line Plus for kittens and cats. And you also need to keep their ears clean. Do not get either a male or female cat declawed, because they develop painful debilitating arthritis as a long term side effect, which is why most decent vets who are not money hungry no longer perform this procedure.

Answer 2

If it's a male he'll pee all over your house, wander off a lot sometimes disappearing for days and get into a lot of fights. If it's a female then it she will produce kittens once or twice a year which will put a lot of strain on her health and ultimately probably shorten her life not to mention give you lots of kittens to rehome. A female cat left to breed unrestraited can produce 2000 decendants in 5 years. That's a lot of kittens to rehome.

Answer 3

I would also like to mention that if it is a female cat, then she has a higher risk of developing a "Pyometra" or pus-filled uterus.This happens when cats and dogs aren't spayed and they develop an infection in their uterus and their uterus can rupture and they actually can die.It is just a better situation all-around if your pets are spayed and neutered.The doctors that do the surgeries are trained professionals.You could ask a veterinarian for more information.

Answer 4

If it is male, it will be aggressive and will spray everywhere to mark its territory. It will actively pursue female cats in order to impregnate them, and will probably not be a very affectionate companion to you.

If it is female, it will go into heat approximately once a month. It will smell terrible and set up an unholy racket in order to attract male cats for breeding. If it is not allowed to bear kittens, it will have a higher likelihood to develop cancer.

Answer 5

Males stink when they are not neutered. They mark everything and just spray...

Females---well you don't want kittens. And they will leave your home for a few days to find a male to breed with. n
