Cats - Female:  Queens

The same benefits as in female dogs (bitches) apply:

Preventing unwanted pregnancies.
Health benefits - reducing chances of:
Uterus infection.
Breast tumours.
Convenience:
Avoiding problems with male cats "courting".
Female cats an be very noisy & disruptive when calling.
No need to keep your cat confined at least twice a year.

In addition, queens can be very promiscuous when in season and roam large territories in search of males.  This exposes them to a higher risk of road accidents, and an increased risk of contracting Feline Leukaemia and FIV (see the section on vaccination).

We strongly advise routine neutering.
