I've never seen castration used in relation to cats and it feels weird.
Oh, is there another more appropriate word for it? English is not my first language..
Traditionally we use the term "spayed" for female cats and "neutered" for males. It's also common to say they've been "fixed", which applies to either sex.
Good to know, thanks :=)
