My guess would be your cat was neutered relatively late in life, after he learned sexual behaviors such as spraying or caterwauling. If a tom cat is neutered prior to learning these behaviors, they tend to not express them. However, once a tom cat has learned these behaviors, even in the absence of testosterone from testicles they will still express the behaviors.
It is also possible that a small portion of testicle was left during the surgery, although this is extremely rare.
your cat may have been not be neutered proply you might want to go back to the vet ! :)
technically they still can. however, after he has been neutered his desire or urge to spray goes way down. Typically neutering will help to stop the spraying. However, a cat that has been neutered before reaching sexual maturity (around six months old), it is very unlikely the cat will ever start spraying.
Male cats do not go int heat, neutered or otherwise; heat is a characteristic of the female oestrus cycle. Even a properly neutered male may still respond to a female in heat, out of habit. If a cat has learned to spray before he was neutered, he very likely will continue after he has been neutered. It likely will be less frequent, but it can still happen.
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.
because it was neutered so it was to pee? i guess.
No. That's why you have them neutered. But they sometimes can still spray.
They are more likely to not spray if they are neutered. But, they do still have the ability to spray, and they will spray if they feel the need to mark their territory. Or if they are upset about something.
If it sprayed before it was fixed, it is possible it will spray after wards, but the incidents will be less frequent and should eventually stop. If it never learned to spray before it was fixed, it won't spray - the urge won't be there and it won't know how to do it.
No. The neutering operation is done to prevent the cat from reproducing.
No.Another AnswerThe first answer isn't strictly true; it really depends when the cat was neutered. A fully mature Tom cat that has been left intact months or even years after it became sexually mature (most cats reach this stage at around six months old), the spraying often becomes a habit, so may still spray after being neutered.However, a kitten who has been neutered before or just after reaching sexual maturity are very unlikely to spray, as it has not become a habit or have developed a "need" to act out this activity.
Yes a cat can be neutered after five years. In cat years, it would only be about 35ish years old. The cat is still young. As long as the cat is healthy, it can be neutered.
Veterinarians have not discovered a correlation between a male cat's head size and whether he has been neutered. Typically, a cat's head will be the same whether he has been neutered or is still intact.
An unneutered cat is a 'Tom', but once neutered they are called a 'Gib.'
