Hi Everyone! Im coming back here to try to find out if it’s possible that my Scottish fold is infertile without even having the procedure of sterilization?
Odin is already an 11 month old male kitten (a white fur odd eye kitten) and since his female sister is already sterile we also thought of sterilizing him but until now here’s not many signs of him maturing, his testicles seem so small compared to my friends BSH cat who is only 5 months old.
Odin never had any marking behaviors, he’s never tried to hump pillows, toys or never developed any mating behaviors so far and even though he’s getting close to being a 1 year old already..
Every time I’ve looked at his bum I’ve noticed that his testicles are very small and during touch it almost felt empty-ish? Almost as if there’s only skin there and a little bit of fur.. it’s my first and only male cat that I have and I’m confused whether he’s already infertile and there’s no need for sterilization since his sister is already sterile female? Odin was always being super healthy and his behavior was absolutely loving and clingy much more than my female cat, even his meow is much more softer than our Cairo!
A friend said to me that white furred male cats have less testosterone than female cats and I don’t know how true is that but is it possible that Odin is a type of cat with small amounts of testosterone?
like a usual Scottish/British kitten Odin is having the chubby cheeks and he’s a bit bulky already
PS, last time Odin saw a vet he only advised to wait until he’s over a 1 year old to sterilize him and he’s never noticed anything about the size of his testicles or behavior but maybe it’s because during last visit Odin was 8 n half months old..
can you guys give me advice and help with knowing whether odin is healthy and sterilization is still necessary even if he’s not fertile?
If there’s any facts about white cats that I should’ve known I’d love to hear it
