Neutering causes allergies?
Every cat I've had that's been neutered has had scabby cat disease.
Currently I have two indoor only unneutered females (they are doing fine) and they do not suffer from excessive licking. I'm wondering if neutering messes up there hormone production and has an effect on their resistance to allergens. I'm taking care of one outdoor female that we are confident is neutered, and it suffers from excessive licking. I'm feeding it hypoallergenic food to see if that will help. Even if that's true, outside cats should not be fed unless they are neutered. I'm not suggesting that they should be allowed to reproduce. It's just one important factor (if true) as long as reproduction can be controlled otherwise. |

I have some allergies and haven't been neutered. |
