Neutering a male cat does not affect mugshot development

Neutering a male cat approximately half a year after it reaches adulthood (about 1.5 years old) will not affect mugshot development. This is because the development of mugshots in male cats is primarily influenced by sufficient estrogen. After neutering, the secretion of estrogen in the body decreases, thus preventing mugshot development. Therefore, the timing of neutering can be chosen according to the cat's individual situation. When a male cat needs to be neutered, it is recommended that the owner take the cat to a regular pet hospital and not a private clinic, otherwise, the risk of infection may increase.

Why does neutering a male cat after 1.5 years old not affect mugshot development?

Normally, male cats between 8 and 10 months old have a relatively high secretion of estrogen, and they will develop mugshots during these two periods. This indicates that the body has reached sexual maturity. Neutering after 1.5 years old will reduce the estrogen level in the body, which will not affect mugshot development. Therefore, it is recommended to neuter after mugshot development.

The benefits of neutering male cats

When male cats are in heat, they may experience adrenal gland hypertrophy, which can easily lead to urinary system blockage. After neutering, the frequency of heat will be reduced, preventing urinary system blockage and reducing the risk of severe diseases such as urinary tract infection, cystitis, and prostatitis, which are conducive to normal physical development.

The disadvantages of neutering male cats too early

If male cats are neutered too early, it will lead to abnormal mugshot development and may also cause skeletal and organ development abnormalities, resulting in a smaller body size and even affecting normal urination.

Precautions after neutering male cats

After neutering, male cats should not be allowed to engage in vigorous activities, as this will affect recovery and the speed of wound healing.同时还需要做好伤口清洁卫生，定时给伤口消毒换药，预防细菌滋生，减少感染的几率，有利于伤口愈合。

Male cats will be weakened after neutering and can be fed high-nutrition food such as cat food, chicken breast, etc., to replenish nutrition and facilitate the recovery of the body.
