As a general rule, male dogs are more likely to mark territory. However, a female dog will also display territory-marking behaviour if she is of a dominant nature or breed, and secure in her position as head of her "pack", whether that be her family or group of other pet dogs.

∙ 13y agoMale gerbils I don't think mark their territory, but they may fight. I have 2 males that have been together their entire lives, and they're perfectly fine.Tthey sleep together, groom each other, all that cute stuff. I guess it all depends on how long they've been together. Any female animal you can pretty much put together as long as you haven't set a stage for dominance: Putting one female animal in a cage before the other. You have to put them in at the same time.
When my first gerbil died, I got 2 more females and the lady at Petco said to put them into the cage simultaneously. Perfectly fine, absolutely no problemo.
Hope this helps.

Why does a female cat go into heat after being sprayed by a male cat?
Whether that is the reason or not, is indefinite. However, the male has hormones in his urine that the female cat responds to, and these could trigger her mating response. no, don't they sniff each other out? The female emits pheromones when she is in heat that the male cat responds to. So the order is, the female is in heat and THEN the male sprays to mark territory.

yes it's a territory thing!Another AnswerHow much a cat urinates depends on what it is fed, and how much water it drinks.

Neutered cats, female or male, do not urinate more than the other.
