| Weird Question! Okay I do not want to sound stupid but I really am not sure about this. I just recently got a 7 month old girl and I already have a 9 month old boy. My boy is neutered and my girl is not spayed YET! I just got her and we have an appointment on Friday to get her checked out and I will also discuss the spaying. WITH ALL OF THIS SAID.........can they still do it? I do not want them to but I am asking more out of the question of concern. I want to keep them together so they can play but I do not want to keep them together while I am gone if this COULD happen. I want to keep my babies safe and I want to be responsible. Thanks for the help and so sorry if this is a silly question.

| Sorry I should have been more clear.....Murphy is neutered and I am not worried about her getting pregnant. I just was not sure if he would still try to "mount" her even if he was fixed and she wasn't even though no babies could come of it. She has not gone into heat yet. Thanks guys - I know I sound stupid but I just do not want her or him to get hurt while i am gone if this is possible.

| Someone just posted recently that their neutered male mounted and completed the act with her unfixed female who was in heat. I was shocked because I had NO idea they could still do it! Obviously no risk of pregnancy but I guess they can still do it recreationally.

| Hey, by the way, if you decide not to have Mia spayed, I have a boyfriend for her.

| If Murphy had started 'mounting' things before you got him neutered, then he may still do it after his neuter - in which case it's very possible that he will try to mount her. If one of them does mount the other, it likely wont be a sexual thing, it's likely a display of dominance over the other one.

See this is what I thought I had heard but I could not find that thread again. Geez!!! Okay well as long as it is only if she is in heat. Obviously if she were to go into heat I would keep them seperated!! We can talk more about the boyfriend/girlfriend thing on our next playdate - hee, hee!
