Most people who own cats will neuter them to prevent unwanted litters of kittens or to stop males spraying, fighting and roaming miles to find a female cat. There are a few people who prefer their cats to remain unneutered and consider it more natural, or allow a female cat to have one litter of kittens and then neuter the cat. Anyone prefer having their cats neutered or un neutered?

All cats are neutered who come into the care of cats protection.

My little rescue is neutered.

It always amazes me that there are so many non-pedigree, unwanted cats and kittens. I and just about everybody I know with male or female cats, have them neutered before they reproduce as there never seems to be a kitten shortage.

I did know one family who acquired what they thought was a male kitten and didn't see the point of neutering 'him'. A few months later 'he' produced seven kittens, something of a record for a first time cat mum. I am pleased to say they all found homes. I took two in.

I’ve had 3 cats, all boys and neutered.
