Shocking moment: cute girls with cute 😺 cat

Before bringing a new cat into your home, there are several things to consider, including whether you should adopt a male cat or a female cat. As veterinarians, we’ve cared for countless cats over the years, and we’ve come to notice some interesting differences between males and females. The biological differences are apparent, but you may wonder if any more subtle differences would make one sex a better fit for your family than the other. Of course, each cat is different, and what’s true for one might not be for another. Still, you should be aware of a few typical personality and behavioral differences when looking for the perfect furry friend to add to your family.
