KK - thought you might find this interesting - you only really need to get the male altered, particularly if you have let him grow out of the kitten stage as an entire tom. The reason being, when he is fixed he will still keep the territory he has established, and not let any other entire toms in. I suggest this to a lot of people with barn cats and it works very well - catch the toms, neuter them (using farm methods), they dont have to worry about spaying the females which requires a vet visit, and it is very, very rare that the females get pregnant.
