Male cats are neutered. Female cats are spayed.
improved answer:
Being Neutered and spayed is the same thing, but for the different genders of the cat. If your cat is neutered, he can't be spayed, since, technically, he already has been. Just remember that these two words are the same thing, but neutered is for males and spaying is for females. Hope it helped!

Why do neutered male cats spray?
Male cats spray as they are more territorial than uneutured male cats. Also I think it may have something to do with attracting a mate. However, some neutered males will still spray if neutered later in life, mainly because it is now "habit". You might need to teach the cat that spraying is not acceptable.

Why Do you get cats nuerered?
I think you mean Neutered? :P Well cat's get Neutered because the owner does not wish for the cat to get other female cats pregnant. Neutering is for Male cats and Spaying is for Female Cats. If you would like to breed cats, then don't get them neutered/spayed! If you do not get your cat neutered, it doesn't mean that it's going to get female cats pregnant, you'll just have to keep a close eye on them. I have noticed that when a cat is in heat, it gets rather annoying! But that's just me! :)

Why whon't my cats mate?
Have you checked if they are already de-sexed? Neutered and spayed cats cannot breed. Also, an intact female will not be interested in a male until she is in heat. That being said, unless you are an experienced breeder, you should not be breeding your cats; there are many risks to breeding, with the worst losing both the mother and kittens. Cats do not need a litter, and by neutering and spaying them, you reduce the risk of illnesses and infections that can develop in an intact cat.
