He does NOTHING but lay around ALL DAY LONG - and he is HUGE FAT! lol. He was a totally normal weight cat before this surgery. My female Cocker Spaniel was spayed, and she was also the exact same way as my cat. She got extremely overweight, wasn't playful at all, and did nothing but lay around. Sooo, my husband has informed me that I CANNOT get Stedman neutered. I had planned on doing it when he turned 6 months, but my husband does not want me to do it now - so we have chose to keep him the way he is - all male parts still intact  LOL |
Cats tend to be lazy creatures anyway and Cockers are total chow hounds that tend to over eat.
I had an unneutered Tom that basicalley all he did was sleep when he was here the rest of the time he prowled.
I'm been around neutered male dogs all my life and none were overweight.
It helps with the marking, the humping, the desire to stray, cancer, and agressive behavior. They are still energetic and playful. But their mind is not focused on breeding.
If you don't plan to breed then there is no reason not to neuter.
