So Funny!!!
Honestly I've laughed my socks off here (and I need it after losing Max). My persian tabby Boris and his sister Azzie (both now gone to the bridge) were at it all the time, even after I explained to him that he'd had the snip, and also that it was incestuous. It wasn't so much the humping it was the noise that those two made while they were 'AT IT'.
Thanks for the laughs, I really enjoy this site. Ramona |

my cat wont stop humping my kitten
i have a cat, toby who is 5 years old. i also have a girl, ponette who is 6 and a kitten who is about 5.5 months. recently, within the past 2 weeks or so, toby has been mounting howie, the kitten. before, he would just hover over him and bite his neck... howie would just stay very still... then last week toby started doing this more and now he is humping the air behind howie.... howie cries and cries adn is much smaller than toby so can't really get away... and i have to uusaully go separate them.
will this continue once howie is neutered too? or is it a complete dominance thing? how do i make it stop? |

Kirabee,this is an old post,what Toby is doing is perfectly normal,I have 3 neutered males and they all do it,to each other or whatever is handy.
However,your Toby should not be doing to a little kitten who cannot defend himself,other than breaking it up,there is not much you can do. I believe neutering only makes the cats sterile,the"funny"feelings are still there,just keep the little guy safe,ok

I agree with Chico. My 1 1/2 old neutered male cat humps this one blanket (my favourite blanket) when he is really happy. I don't like it and have tried to make it stop. Frankly I have no idea how you do it because I have tried everything and the only thing that works is hiding the blanket. :sad:

I really don't think it's anything you should try to stop,unless it's done to a kitten,too small to get away.
Seeing the cat enjoys it and is in La-La land for a while,what's the big deal My Rocky(male) has Chico(male) as his object of affection,Chico even seems to entice him,but when Rocky means business,Chico is very capable of cooling him off

I know this is an old post but a new additional question and I just wanted to add (maybe I did before, I did not check every response, lol) that while I have never experienced this with cats, my ,ale neutered bunny used to look for items to hump, including my beagle puppy - and so I bought him a Beanie Buddy almost his size, a rabbit and he loved that thing, lol pet stores actually sell furry items for pets to do this with, lol He was fine once he had his toy and I had trained him to play nicely with the beagle/ Even when the beagle became much larger than him the bunny remained the alpha pet in the home - my cat at the time was a rescued kitten who was my fraidy cat. She would run and hide when new people came in the door. But she would come out and want to be in my lap when they were gone. Those three were quite the characters. <g>

[edit]Kirabee i'd just keep breaking it up till your kitten is big enough to defend himself. I don't think it is a dominance thing with cats. One of my two boys the more lovey smaller one just liked to get frisky.

My horny kitty
Yeah, got that problem too! Neutered 4 year old male named Kitten. It started when we moved out of our tiny apartment in NYC to a big new house in Texas. I'd sit on the couch with a blanket-don't want Kitten to scratch the new leather! Anyway, a few month ago he started with the innocent kneading. And I didn't mind. Then he started shaking. At first I thought there was something wrong. When I turned him over, his little you know what was sticking out! I'd tell him I'm his mommy not his girlfriend! My husband thinks it's gross. I kick him off and then he finishes with a good lick. Now my other male cat Oody humps Kitten who humps me. I understand dominance, but why would Kitten hump ME? What on earth is going on? Is it in the Texas water?!

OOdy,please do not get angry at your cats for doing this,and your hubby should not think it's gross,because it is not.
It's a feel-good thing for your cats,nothing to get angry about,or try to stop.just leave them be. If you are bothered with him on your lap,just put him down together with the blanky..

I agree with Chico2, there's nothing wrong with what your cat is doing. Just because he doesn't have testes anymore doesn't mean he can't feel frisky and enjoy life. Look at it as a sign that he's happy and healthy instead of something perverted.

Two of my boys do this on a regular basis.... my vet explained it to me as they are just comfortable and excited, nothing sexual about it. I call it the friskies and it doesn't gross me out anymore. The only time I discourage it is if they are trying to do this to one of the other cats... as often the other cat is not in the same 'mood'.

Neutered cats
I have a cat that has been neutered for about 3 days now. He still wants to hump his sister. He doesn't do this with his brothers because the boys seem to fight when they are together.
I thought that when cats were neutered, they lost their desire for sex, but I guess that is not true. |

In dogs at least, it takes a long time for testosterone to be cleared out of the body, so at three days post-neuter, your cat's testosterone levels are probably still pretty high.
And I don't know how it is with cats, but all our spayed and neutered dogs still hump each other to show dominance...so for us the humping never really ended. Doesn't have much to do with sex, though.

Last year, we adopted a female russian blue kitten.
Well, we already had a two year old male, neutered persian cat. At the time, I decided to purchase a stuffed animal 'cat'. The one that they sell in the pet stores that has the heat pack and the simulated heartbeat. I put our scent on it and it was suppose to be for separation anxiety. When the female was 6 months old, we had her spayed, so she would never go into heat. The male cat has been neutered ever since he was 6 months old aswell. But ever since we got that stuffed cat for 'separation anxiety', our neutered male kitty has been having fun with his 'toy' ever since. I had originally put the video on to the Marvin Gaye song- 'Lets get it on'. http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...deoid=57170962 |

I'm sorry for reviving this old thread but I'm a little bit perplexed with my kitten right now for this exact reason.
"Peanut" the offending kitten is eight months old and he was neutered TODAY. He's been back at home for less than four hours and he's already trying to hump the couch pillows, the blanket I'M using and our female cat, Abby, who although understands the need to be nice to the doped up and obviously sore kitten, isn't impressed. I've read this thread and get that even neutered male cats hump things, but the same day after he's had surgery? I got an AMAZING deal on the neutering from a vet, against the advice of a girl at work who said that cheaper vets usually aren't as reliable... Should I be worried about my cat or is he just "getting right back in the saddle" so to speak? |

First of all welcome to pets.ca and I hope you decide to check out the rest of the forum. We'd also love to see pics of Peanut and Abby.
I wouldn't be worried as it will take awhile before his testosterone levels start to drop. In some cats it can take 4 to 6 weeks before they do. He may still even try to hump periodically after that. |
