I've just got back from the vet for the kitten's 3rd deworming and distemper shots and he's recommended getting both the boy and girl in to be neutered and spayed.
The shelter advised having the boy done around now but said that we should wait for the spay until my little girl was around 6 months old. However, my vet says he prefers to get them in younger and that it's easier on them.
Does anyone have any experience with this? The shelter has told me a horror story about stitches splitting as it's difficult to keep kittens from playing and while I'm sure my vet wouldn't do anything jeopardise her health, I want to be sure.
Thanks!
