In order to better mate, the cat's choice is:
1. Choose cats of the same breed. In order to ensure the excellent quality of offspring, cats of the same breed should be selected and mated with males of the same lineage as far as possible to avoid breed degradation.
2. To choose a healthy male cat, it is required that the male cat is large in size, symmetrical in appearance, compact in abdomen, correct in posture, pure in coat color, dense and bright, responsive and energetic, with normal testicular development on both sides and strong reproductive ability. It is forbidden to mate with male and female cats with the same shortcomings. If the selected male and female cats have the same shortcomings, then their shortcomings will be consolidated and passed down.
3. When choosing a male cat and a female cat with strong blood relationship, it is best to match the strong age with the strong age, followed by the combination of the strong age male cat and the aged female cat, and never match the old age with the old age. It is forbidden for close relatives (within three generations) male cats and female cats to mate and reproduce.

Points for attention when cats mate:
Cats that mate don't want to be seen, and they don't like lights when mating. So cats usually mate at night. According to this feature, domestic cats should pay attention to keeping the environment dark and quiet when choosing mating sites, preferably at night.
In order to observe whether the male and female cats mate successfully, the owner should hide in the dark or stand outside and watch through the doors and windows. Don't walk or make noise. The appropriate time for mating is the night after the female cat is in estrus, and it is generally enough to register once. It is more reliable to mate the next day.
If the male cat and the female cat have never met, before mating, the female cat should be kept in a cage, placed in the male cat's residence or near the cage, so that the male cat can get close and let the female cat out after getting familiar with it. In order to prevent cats from fighting with each other during mating, the owner should grasp the mating opportunity, and it is best to mate the male and female cats in a cage at the climax of estrus (the day after estrus).
For cats who are not familiar with the surrounding environment, they should have a process of getting familiar with the surrounding environment.
Adult cats start estrus every spring, and both male and female cats can estrus. Male cats are usually caused by the smell of nearby female cats. A female cat can give birth to at most 12, at least 2, usually 3-6. A cat with good physical strength can give birth twice a year.
