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.
Yes cats have an alpha structure. Depending on weather the cat is female or male and if the female cat is sprayed and the male is neutered. Making the female have a larger territory when it coming from the kittens.
No, male cats do not go into heat like female cats do. Male cats are able to mate and reproduce at any time once they reach sexual maturity, whereas female cats go into heat periodically when they are fertile and looking to mate.
I am a Myra, and a female. I am not aware of Myra being used as a male's name.
Most females will only allow a male to mount them if they are in heat as this is the time when they are most fertile. Although some females will allow a dog to mate them whilst they are not in heat, there is less chance of the female getting pregnant.
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.
No. Only a male can impregnate a female. No female mammal of any species can get another female pregnant. For mammals that have a "heat" cycle, being in "heat" is required for pregnancy by a male. If such a mammal (a dog for instance) is not in heat or doesn't have a male partner, pregnancy is not possible.

Male cats do not go into heat like female cats do. Female cats go into heat to attract male cats for mating, while male cats are always ready to mate when a female cat is in heat.
it is the period in time when an animal/mammal (female) is ready for sex without being in heat period the female will not mate with any male
Male cats do not go into heat like female cats do. Female cats go into heat to attract male cats for mating and reproduction. Male cats are always ready to mate and do not have a specific heat cycle.
When the female is ready the male will know.
Separate them, until the female's heat is over.
Male cats can smell a female cat in heat from up to 1-2 miles away.
Male dogs don't get in heat, but if they smell a female in heat they can get real frantic in their effort to get to her.
