Best Answer

Some male cats know a kitten is theirs by their scent and mother, but most males even if they know the kitten is theirs will probably not want to have much to do with it, because of the mother cat's protectiveness over her children. However a few male cats will actually bring food to the mother and babies and take care of them part of the time.
