Spaying and neutering cats
The recommended age for spaying/neutering is around 6 months of age.
The recommended time to spay or neuter your cat is from about 6 months of age. Female kittens come into heat two or three times a year, and male kittens also come into heat in response. To reduce the stress caused by the heat and to prevent various diseases, spay or neuter your cat as early as possible.
After spaying or neutering, hormonal imbalances can occur and the cat can become very overweight. It is better to switch to a special diet for your cat.
