Cat Forum / General Topics / March 2005Neutered cats trying to mate
We have 3 maile cats all about 7 years old. All have been neutered, but recently one of them is trying to mate with another. He climbs onto the back of the other cat, sort of marches with his feet and bites him on the neck. Is is possible that he wasn't neutered enough or that something grew back?

When they are nuetered the entire testical is cut along with part of the connecting cord. There is no way anything could grow back. >> We have 3 maile cats all about 7 years old.

It can't grow back, but if the cat is cryptorchid, that is one of the testicles has not descended into the scrotal sac, the vet may think it never formed and leave the cat with male hormones. I had one who required extensive surgery to find that testicle. I agree it is usually a matter of dominance, not sexuality. You can usually tell a full male cat by their spraying and the smell of the urine. BarB >>>We have 3 maile cats all about 7 years old.

The vet he last saw said that one of her neutered cats does the same. He is however a very dominant cat(always has been) and is always wondering round the house meowing like a tom cat! Nobody else I know who has cats has ever had a neutered cat that does this, so I guess it cant be that common and both testicles have definatly been removed. I know however that in horses some geldings that were castrated late or were quite dominant before also remember what to to and will mate unsucessfully with mares.

I wouldn't have thought it was the dominance thing becasue the one who is doing it is not the dominant one. Of the 3, the smallest is the dominant and waps the other two all the time. The biggest is the least dominant and I keep thinking someday he's going to realize he can whoop the little one, but so far it hasn't happend. Cheers, Dave
