A male kitten typically does not start spraying, it sprays at all, until 6 months of age. A kitten neutered before it starts to spray is less likely to do so.

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.

No, but if you do they will be less vicious and they won't wander as far from home. (I have 4 cats and 2 are male. 1 is neutered and the other isn't. The neutered one doesn't have a care in life but the other one is still a big softy! It depends what your cat is like. Also, un-neutered male cats like to spray to mark their territory!)
