    3. What makes a "fixed" male cat gain so much weight? Why?
    What makes a "fixed" male cat gain so much weight? Why?

    My make tom was captured and deballed then released... He has become more docile but has gained at least 5 pounds (not good for a cat). Why is he gaining so much weight, is it a hormonal thing?

          jhharlan,  think about it.  There's essentially nothing else left to do but to lick its paws, and how much time can you spend licking paws?  It eats, naps, eats, poops, naps, licks paws, and the daily cycle goes on.
