Check for shaved hair and a scar on the abdomen, which indicates spaying. Look for an ear tattoo, often an “M,” showing the cat is spayed. Spayed cats may display loud vocalizations. An Anti-Müllerian Hormone Assay can confirm spaying. Always consult a veterinarian for accurate diagnosis.
Third, monitor their heat cycles. A spayed cat will not go into heat, meaning she will not exhibit typical signs such as increased vocalization, restlessness, or affectionate behavior toward humans or other cats. Additionally, consider their age. If a female cat has never had a litter and is over six months old, she is likely spayed.
If you still have doubts, consult with a veterinarian. They can provide a thorough examination and confirm if a cat is spayed. Understanding these signs will help in recognizing whether a cat has been fixed or not, ensuring proper care for your feline companion.
