Hello, and thank you for your question. It is definitely possible that your male is trying to mate with your female. While unlikely, it is possible for your female to get pregnant at an early age (though typically not until 5 months or older), so I would recommend separating them until you can get them both fixed, at least so your female is not being constantly harassed by your male. I hope this helps, and that your cats are otherwise happy and healthy!
