Ahh, endocrinologists~ The saviors of many.

*Cough*

Yes, so, Honey is a lovely cat. >>

Mm, being a hermaphrodite.

Although, because Honey's testicles have descended, I think it's much less likely if he is.

I'm wondering if he simply has low testosterone levels or somesuch.

Blood tests could tell, although he couldn't wear a patch, would have to have the shots! We had a patient who came in for them regularly...this was before Viagra!

XD Hah.

I can just imagine going onto the FtM LJ community about it.

"I know how to administer T into myself, but how about a cat?"

Re: Transgendered Cat? o_O


No I don't think it will matter either way whatever Honey decides to be X
He may just be a very sweet natured loving cat (common in men too you know)

Don't know if the bow will help him if he wants to be macho though!!

Re: Transgendered Cat? o_O


That was a joke about the bow you know

Does he need testosterone boosts or can he just be Honey???
