I think the greatest challenge for you will be keeping your male Maltese away from Cupcake. Even if you're supervising them, he might manage to sneak in while your back is turned, or even while it isn't. You might consider having your Maltese neutered ASAP, and/or have Cupcake neutered after her heat cycle is over. If neither is possible, you will have to keep them physically separated at all times. If Cupcake gets pregnant, you still have the option of getting an emergency spay, but it's riskier than having her spayed between heat cycles. |
