  1. Do momma cats tell their female kittens "sweeties, you can be hunters if you want. Just because my generation stayed home with the kittens don't mean you girls have to"?

  3. Female cats are very playful and very demanding like when they are feel lonely. I have had male cat but never established as family cat because it is too wild, female in other hand very affectionate and trust more people.
    Our cat is indoor cat and get much physical stimulation as possible, many toys and imaginary hand enemy (got many cuts).
    It grew up very quickly, in space of 7 month she is more than double her size. I think she will be a giant cat when she grown up to her full size.

  4. The is 100% accurate to a T. I’ve found that have two male cats or two female cats is better than one of each. Two different personalities and both jealous in different ways. 😂

    My girl is definitely a cuddle buddy and has a favorite chair. If the boy is in it she jumps up there licks him affectionately then attacks him it’s hilarious but I feel bad for my boy.

    My boy though is all about being playful and running through the house even neutered. He’s still so feral and fun! He’s also funny in a different way. But he’s the scaredy cat. She’s more courageous than he is. And I love them both!

  5. Doesn't ring true with my male kitten for petting and cuddling, but it sure does for mischief! I also have an adult female cat. They get along super well. I have been owned by many many cats in 60+. years and only have a slight preference for male cats (every cat that I have been the caregiver for has been spayed or neutered). My soul cat (who passed away two years ago) was female and she was the most loving creature that I have ever met. However, my male kitten seems to be following in her footsteps. My female cat is also very much a snuggle bug. Both cats adore tummy rubs, love to play with toys, come when called and play fetch. I am very happy with my felines.

  6. my GF n i have 4 cats. one granny, her son and daughter, and a non-re;ated rescue male. the latter is the big boy, at 5kg he solves all problems by throwing his weight around, tho he is super affectionate with me and likes my GF slightly less but still a lot. Both males are castrated, mummy (granny really) is too and just our young female isnt as we want a litter from her down the road but she is on the cat pill.

    The two boys (2kg difference between them) love to rough house play, and the big boy will also play attack the two ladies, tho Granny gets him to fuck off rather quick cause shes not about that life anymore.

    the lovely thing is, they can be fighting in complete silence, trashing the house and we know its just play. the moment there is a growl or any other vocalization, which is extremely rare and usually ends the session, thats when we know someone crossed a line.

  7. My female cat is very affectionate all the time, whenever I sit down she aways jumps onto my lap, she's on me rn puring like a lawn mower. my male cat likes his space more, but when he's in an affectionate mood he loves to bunt my face and roll all over me haha. Out of the 2 though, the female definitely gets into more mischief and if she's told no about getting into something, like harassing a house plant, she'll make it her personal mission to keep doing whatever she got told no about until she gets sick of it or something distracts her. The male gets into less mischief but makes a lot more noise, sometimes it sounds like someone's running round the house with a battering ram when he's running round bumping into stuff. Both are great animals and the best of friends with each other.

  8. This is so dated!!!!! What gives you the right to determine a cats gender?! What if the cat is trans? This is offensive to the left! 😂 Will we acknowledge trans animals who want to identify as the opposite sex, or simply identify as both genders?

  9. I got 2 boys and 3 girls. I also have a grey squirrel and 2 southern flying squirrels and they all get along really crazy. My one boy (a blue) is the squirrels protector. Whenever they are out he stays close and will stop my one girl from trying to play with them rough 😂. I think the breed has allot to do with it. Everything I've read about mine(2 torties, 2 black, and the blue) has been dead on. My blacks are snuggle bugs. My torties are but only when they want it. And the blue wants to cuddle but is too manly 😂😆😂.

  10. the biggest difference between my male and female cat is that the male always has a distant derpy look that says no thoughts just vibes and the female has a very expressive glance that is more focused and sensitive.

  11. I have a male and a female cat, they are both cuddly but it is the female who is the most playful and gets into trouble/needs the most enrichment. My roommate also has a male and female cat I've lived with for a year and the male is most cuddly

  12. I have 3 rescue kitties. 2 female one male. ALL from same litter.. they're ALL affectionate towards me. However the male is the only one that doesn't hide when company comes.. he will let me vacuum next to him. Not afraid of anything

  13. My two girls are boys considered to this Video 😂. I got them from the streets tho. they have been around 4 months old at that point. Maybe that makes the difference.

  14. All your info is wrong. Males will still spray after neutering. It is not the cure all. I lmao when I saw the title of this video. I'm a retired Veterinarian and I have seen that Personality traits in felines are different to each cat. Not wether they are male or female. No two are alike. Certain breeds have specific characteristics but the only thing specific to males and females is mating season. Females will flop around yowling and scenting when in heat. Males will spray and want to fight with other cats.
