TBH i think people who don't have their cats spayed or neutered (unless breeding0 are irresponsible.

It's a no brainer. For his welfare it is better to neuter him.  He will be less inclined to wander, fight and spray.  In general he will have a better quality of life. 

Oh and it will help reduce the number of unwanted kittens that are born without enough people to adopt them.

I would say definitely. We got our two from someone with a female cat and if we hadnt taken them they would have been put down. Our two have been neutered.

we wanted to keep our boy as a stud cat but he got too big, and the bet said the only option to stop him growing was to neuter him. against our choice but watching him get bigger and bigger each day wasnt very fun. so at 6months old; 40cm long shoulder to rump, and 25cm high paw to front shoulder and 8kg, he got the snip.

here he is at 4 months old

now he is a happy almost 3 yr old and is 9kg at his last vet check up. hes all fur, skin and bones though, if he puts weight on to not be underweight be should weigh 11kg.

only neagative was he never got to finish growing properly, so his little feet are still too big, so he runs and trips up so funny too see but stops him getting birds without a silly bell.

his mum that bred him is a tortise shell and equally as fluffy, but only a slight 6kg and 'normal' cat size, his dad was a short hair solid grey stud.

i do my big boy
