Some people think their cats' personality will change if it is fixed. Not true! Having it spayed or neutered will help keep it feeling like a carefree kitten.
However, some cat's personalities do change as they age just as humans change as they grow up. This change is not due to its having been spayed or neutered.
There are many factors that can change a cat.
A kitten may be playful and affectionate when young but may become more independent or distant when they become adult cats. It's just a cat thing.
Changes in your life style can cause your cat to feel neglected if you are too busy to take time to pet or snuggle with him or her.
Adding new pets to the household can change your cats' personality. Cats have a social order and when they feel that they have lost their position they sometimes react by behaving in a different manner.
Small children sometimes poke at them and cause them to become more jumpy or even aggressive.
A cat may also have health issues that it may be dealing with that you may be unaware of. Cats cannot whine like dogs so they cannot tell you when they feel bad.
If you notice mood changes in your cat you need to mention that to your veterinarian when you take them for their vaccinations updates.
If your cats' personality has changed, it is not because it has been fixed!

I've got two female house cats and they're sooo tame but my mum wants to get them spayed. I was wondering are there any 'side effects' of getting them spayed and will their personalities change?
first off, you don't "neuter" a female cat. You spay them. Doing that won't change their personalities at all (I've had several female cats). They were the same playful and loveable cats they had always been
What does a female cats privets look like when fixed?
The external genitalia of the cat will look the same after it is fixed (or "spayed", some call it). When a female cat gets fixed, the veterinarian performs a surgery called an ovariohysterectomy where she/he will remove the ovaries and uterus of the cat, preventing her from getting pregnant or going into heat. I hope that helps! :)

What will happen if your cat is fixed and she is pregnant?
that is actually is not possible unless something went wrong when your cat was getting fixed. vets usually know what they're doing, so something shouldn't have went wrong. I would first contact a vet to make sure your cat is not pregnant.
Will my male un fixed cat spray if i get a spayed female cat?
Some cats, regardless of gender, spray/pee if you get another cat whether they're fixed or not. Is your cat really territorial and protective, one woman/man cat? Then they may protest against you getting another cat--or they might not, if they like that other cat. Technically, a spayed female cat should not induce hormone-based behavior from a male cat, though it would definitely help if the male was fixed as well. If the chances are that your current cat will get along fine with another, I'd go ahead and take the risk of getting a spayed female--because after all, you're saving another life if you adopt another cat.
