So he'll have to get all 5 of them neutered, like I said! Or else they'll just keep having more kittens - even sibling cats will mate when they go into heat. And Maru and the mother cat could have a litter per year. What are they going to do, keep ALL of them?? It would have been far far simpler and better (not to mention cheaper) if he had just had Maru desexed when he adopted him. That's what responsible pet owners do.
They are adorable and the story is lovely, but this manga accidentally taps into a massive pet peeve of mine! (Pun not intended but a happy coincidence.) Now he's going to have to get 5 cats neutered. If Tsuchiya had been a responsible pet owner and gotten Maru neutered in the first place like he should have, there wouldn't be an issue! There are too many poor little cats and kittens who need homes already, don't fricking add to the number. Every kitten that people let their own cats have means one more kitty that potentially gets put down at a shelter because they run out of time to find homes for them.
