Cats are very seldom castrated; a neutered cat does retain his penis. And a neutered tom will still cover a queen in heat, because his reactions to her scents and actions will still be in place.
An un-castrated or un-neutered male cat is known as being intact. In other words, they still have their testicles which enable them to breed female cats.
A male cat may try to mate with a female cat who is not in heat, but it is unlikely. Mating behaviors can also be displays of dominance.
of course not.it's totally normal for a female cat to be in heat.
Never. But seriously: When the female cat is 'on heat'.
When a female cat is in heat it is called Estrus --This is the name of the cycle. The name of the cat itself is a queen. == ==
Yes; a recently neutered tom will try to cover a female in heat. He won't be able to impregnate her, but he'll still have the habit patterns and chemical responses that make him try.
A castrated male cat is usually just called a "neutered" or "fixed" male.
Yes if the female cat allows the male cat.
A non castrated male cat is called a tom
A female cat is fertile its entire life. Spay your cat to stop it from going into heat in the future.
He is probably fixed.
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.
