My vet recommended I get my kitten spayed at 4 months, so I did. 'Earlier the better', she said, and she had lots of reasons to back up her recommendation. Jadzia just came home from the surgery today, she's totally fine, just sleepy. Meanwhile, in this raw-food facebook group I belong to, someone posted a spay/heat-related question and I answered telling them "it's fine to get your cat spayed before their first heat, my vet told me it prevents certain kinds of cancers actually" and now people are destroying me in the comments! People are insisting that my vet is wrong, that my kitten is now at risk of other types of cancers because I didn't wait until she was 'mature' to spay her. Is this true?? I seriously don't know what to believe, I feel like every vet has a different opinion about everything and no matter what I do I'm going to kill my cat!
I can quote a few of the comments (without names of course) if it would help the discussion.
