- I got my cat Max from the Humaine Society when he was a year old
- (it was then that he got "fixed"). Max has since adopted one of
- my son's teddy bears for his amour de coeur. At first this
- concerned me because I have never had a male cat who did this so
- I contacted the vet. She told me that neutering a cat was no
- guarantee he would stop spraying since this was a "learned"
- behaviour and once a Tom starts spraying, he could in fact
- continue. Luckly Max only goes through the motions with his
- bear. (My other cat Buster who is 9 months old -- he's getting
- his operation next month -- just watches Max like he's nuts and
- has shown no interest in the bear or any other object.)
