My boyfriend and I are moving into our new apartment this weekend with our two cats--Cloud a fixed 9 month old male, and Opus a non-fixed 9 month old female. They have never met before, and I am afraid that being around an un-fixed female will start Cloud spraying. Opus is going to be fixed as soon as I can make the appointment, but that probably won't be for another couple of weeks. Does anyone have any experience with this? Should I leave Cloud with my family until Opus is fixed? Thanks, Michelle

I would suggest keeping the two in separate houses until Opus is fixed. It would be the safest bet. These types of things usually come down to the personalities of the individual cats involved, but why take any chances. Jo | |||||

If one cat has a few weeks to establish itself in the new home, won't it think the other cat is an intruder when it finally shows up? | |||||

Since it sounds like they don't know each other yet anyway, then there is really nothing to lose with getting the female spayed first. Jo | |||||
