However, I can tell you that it is common for male cats to leave home after their female mate has kittens. There are several reasons for this behavior:
* Hormonal changes: Male cats experience hormonal changes after their female mate has kittens. These changes can lead to aggression towards the kittens or the female cat.
* Territoriality: Male cats are often territorial and may feel threatened by the presence of the kittens, especially if they are not their own.
* Competition: Male cats may compete with each other for resources, including food, territory, and mates. This competition can lead to aggression and may cause the weaker male to leave.
* Scent changes: Female cats produce a strong scent after they give birth, which can be overwhelming to male cats. This change in scent may trigger a response in the male cat to leave the area.
* Lack of attention: The female cat may be focused on caring for her kittens, leaving the male cat feeling neglected. This can lead to him seeking attention elsewhere.
It is important to note that not all male cats will leave after their female mate has kittens. Some males may stay and help raise the kittens, while others may leave temporarily and return later. The behavior of each individual cat will vary depending on their personality, temperament, and the circumstances.
