I had female hamsters before and they were great. I just do not know about female cats. I researched and found that most prefer male cats, cuz they are playful, laid back, and affectionate. I did find posts from people talking about personality, but it seem that a gender do have a role in determining a personality.

Right now, they both gets along just fine, but as Smokey gets older, I wonder how they will be. I was thinking one could be aggressive, but Fuzzy is fixed and Smokey will be too. I am not sure if Fuzzy understand the gender difference and what will happen, regardless of them being fixed.

Again, animals isn't the same as humans. Oh, this is male. This is female. People makes mistake. The lady thought she was a male until now when I found out and showed her.
Um....to reiterate what SweetDaisy said, the sex of animal doesn't dictate its personality. You can't compare the personaility/attitude of a different species to that of a cat!

I've had a male cat and currently have two female cats. They were/are equally playful and had/have great personalities, each distinct from the other. My male cat was an indoor/outdoor cat and was very loveable and playful. My two females are strictly indoor cats and both are just as loveable and playful in their own ways.

Whether it be male or female, you'll definitely want to make sure you get it fixed.
