Dr. Karen Becker details the scientific facts that point to consequences of desexing pets. For Peaty Pets, but also, very relevant parallels can be drawn from this regarding the lack of hormones and disease states that arise as a result.

Or maybe so you don't have to stand the behaviour?It doesn't seem right for her to have to keep going through being on heat.
I wonder if this would apply in some similar way to vasectomies?
I've experienced very few problems in my cats, although what Dr Becker says makes sense. I foster care cats and by law they must be "done" before rehoming. I have 11 cats living permanently with me, most are seniors, oldest about 17. They were desexed before six months except the oldest, she was 2 years. I think their diet of mostly raw meat, liver and coconut oil has kept them very healthy.

We don't even castrate pedophiles because it would be cruel and yet you want to do it as routine to pets.
I don't mind when she's on heat tbh, I've just heard not getting your cat neutered can cause cancer of the womb and while my cat is on heat she seems pretty stressed.Or maybe so you don't have to stand the behaviour?

I started listing to this because I have a cat that was desexed at around 7 months (after he started spraying), but she only mentions the effects in dogs. Did your other cats have it done when they were older? My cat is 11 years old and so far none of those problems. I think maybe because he had some of the hormones for a short while.
The only way would be to have an outdoor enclosure. Female cats spray too, just don't smell really strong like undesexed males. My neighbour's male cat is whole and about 5 years old. They let him roam around 24/7. He's only healthy because he comes to my place for good meals. My neighbours are deadbeats when it comes to their pets They'd be in jail probably if they lived in Sweden.I think with male cats it’s very difficult because of the spraying... I don’t know how to get around having a male cat as a pet without neutering....?
I think of this also. Would 1 drop a week of Progestene be enough? Or should I add 1 drop of Pansterone as well, to have pregnenolone and DHEA? Would this apply to both desexed male and female cats?My cat is already neutered, what can I do from here? She is a beautiful cat and seems healthy at the moment (at age two) but after seeing what happened to my Mums cat I don’t want my cat to suffer the same fate
