I hate it too -  >:(breeders pushing kittens on to people who would be quite happy to take an older moggie

it isn't just the encouraging of breeding either - it also has the effect of making inexperienced people, many of them very young from their posts, think far too much about kittens, and not enough about cats

Im not signing up as that forum drives me mad, far too much breeding going on for me. So if you please post that a nursing queen can be spayed, they continue producing milk whilst its in demand spayed or not. Many ferals are TNRd this way in spain etc, its not ideal but something to think about.
Once kittens are eating some solids and able to lap they could cope without mum for a few hours

The fleas wont just belong to him, the older cat will carry them in, and so can the owner!

I feel so sorry for this tom being blamed for everything that any responsible owner should be doing - regular flea treatments and neutering before first heat  :tired:

Oh bless you how awful, I would make out to the RSPCA that he is agressive and a threat to both people and other cats, maybe they will come and get him

Perhaps you will care to take a copy of the 'why neuter' page on my site and pass it on.

There are more reason's than pregnancy to spay a cat.... :scared:

Even if the tom was caught and neutered what is stopping another tom catching her scent and coming again....they can travel for miles!  :scared:

Definitely the cat needs done.... :Crazy: >:(

Sounds like another case of.... :brick:

ps...My sister's cat was spayed when the kittens were 7 wks old....once they are all weaned I cant see any reason not to do it then!  ;)

I'm sorry, Daisymac. While I can sympathise that she may have thought it unnecessary to have her indoor cat speyed the first time she didn't learn her lesson and her cat is now pregnant again and she goes on to say 'I cannot bear the thought of another (third?) litter of kittens to re-home' and asks what she can do about it. The problem of the tom cat spreying and avoiding capture is one thing, but she can prevent her cat having another litter of kittens. I have no sympathy for her whatsoever and it makes me angry and upset when so many animals are needing homes that people like her are so irresponsible.

I also belong to another cat forum where I have seen a post by a lady who is having awful problems with a Tom cat,  I really feel for her but dont know what to suggest,  I am sure you guys will be able to help her better than we can on the other forum: xxxx
