Читать книгу The Cat Owners Handbook - Graham Meadows - Страница 35

If you are buying a pedigree cat and hoping to breed, then you will probably choose a female. A stud cat (male) usually needs to be kept in separate quarters, and because of its scent-marking rarely makes a good family pet. If you do not intend to breed, then sex is not really an issue because as a responsible pet owner you should arrange to have the kitten (or, if necessary, the adult cat) neutered. There is little difference in the behaviour of a neutered male and a neutered female, and both sexes can make an adorable, loving pet.

Take your kitten to the vet for a health check, as a runny nose and eyes could indicate a problem.
