I took in a litter of kittens about a week and a half ago who I'd say are currently around 6 weeks old.
I was very lucky to find great homes for all of them and I can't wait for them to go home to their families!
But of course, like the response rescuer I always strive to be, they must first be fixed.
I know that most shelters/rescues get kittens spayed at 8 weeks (or whenever they hit 2 pounds). I totally understand why they do that and that lots of research says it's safe and fine.
But that seems SO young to me, I'm getting so nervous about it! But I want them to be spayed/neutered ASAP so their families can enjoy them.
Can anyone ease my worries about this? Or share some knowledge/experience?
Thank you!
