Spay Question for Cats...
I heard today that the earlier you spay a cat the smaller they will be? Is that true? My vet said I can do it next month, the kittens will be 5 months then... but since I just heard this (not from the vet), I dont' know if I should wait until they are 6 monts??

My cats were about 5 months when they were spayed and neutered. Lydia is on the small side (10lbs) and Eddie is chubby (16lbs). They don't look too small in comparison to other cats.

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it is all a myth. You can spay/neuter before six months.

Re: Spay Question for Cats...
We adopted our kitten and he was spayed already at 3 months. The vet told us its called "early spaying/neutering" THeyf ound its just as effective. We have had no problems with Sisko, and he is a boy, so I was afraid he would spray--but he will be 1 on Sunday and nothing!!
