Male vs. Female Almost all kittens are cute, curious and cuddly, whatever their sex. Let's first take a look at the pros and cons of male cats, then females. Male cats are usually very cozy and friendly, and exhibit trust at an early age. And the odor of cat urine is strong and offensive. In most cases, this annoying habit may be prevented by neutering while the cat is young.
Neutering lessens the male cats urge to wander, too.
Many shelters require neutering before the cat can be adopted. While female cats are more cautious in approaching you, they are very affectionate once you have earned their trust. To prevent this, most veterinarians recommend spaying. Ask your veterinarian about the approximate age to neuter or spay your kitten. This could be a breeder, pet shop, or humane society.
