As some of you know from my food thread, my boyfriend and I found a kitten on the side of the road about a month ago and decided to keep her. Arya is now about four months old, and we're wondering when would be the best time to spay her. I know queens in heat are a pain to deal with, but we don't want to spay her too early. From what I can tell, there isn't nearly as much research about the cons of altering early like there is in dogs, but I am sure there are some. Would doing it before or after her first heat be better? We were thinking a year, but that was literally just us picking something out of the air. With female dogs I would wait until three or four years, but queens in heat seem much more difficult to live with than bitches in heat.
Looking forward to the replies!
