Pet's info: Cat | American Bobtail | Male | neutered | 28 lbs
Is it possible that a cat that’s been neutered can impregnate a not yet spayed female cat? Because I think that’s what happened here and we are assuming something went wrong when we neutered him 7 years ago.

Hello and thank you for reaching out to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. No, a neutered male cat cannot impregnant a female cat. Neutered males have no testicles and therefore no sperm. If you have a female cat that has become pregnant, she must have been mated by another, intact male cat. I hope this is helpful!
