Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. I think there are two different kinds of neutering: one where the cat keeps his testicles, and one where he doesn't.
The male cat that I had when I was growing up still had his testicles, even though he was neutered. That cat died, and four years ago, when I graduated college and settled into my own apartment, I got two cats from a shelter: an adult male, and a female kitten.
The adult male had already been neutered by the time I got him. And he does not have his testicles.
I was not involved with the neutering of either of those male cats: the one I have now was already neutered when I got him, and my parents took care of the neutering of the other one, since I was a kid.
So, I know there are two different kinds of neutering procedures, but I don't know much more than that, unfortunately.

What is an Intact male cat?
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.
Can a male cat spray after being neutered?
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.

First of all no girls are neutered. Boys are neutered. Only in dogs and cats. Not people. If you have a female pet, it has been spayed, then no, its heat cycle will stop.
What is the difference between a male and female cat?
The best way to tell what gender a cat is, it by looking underneath the base of its tail. A male cat that has not been neutered will have two furry testicles right below the anus, and a penis right below the testicles. A neutered male cat will not have visible testicles, but there will be a noticeable space between its anus and penis. Spayed and intact female cats alike will have a genital opening (vulva) which is a tear-drop shape located right below the anus.

Where are the testicles located on a male cat?
A male's testicles are found underneath the tail, right under the anus. In an intact and mature male, the testicles are very pronounced. If the cat is neutered, then the testicles will not be apparent, but will be a gap between the anus and penis where the testicles once were.

Can nuetered male cats go into heat and spray?
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.
Do cats start attacking more after being neutered?
No, being fixed is supposed to lessen attacks and fights, not increase them.
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.
