Wow! I just assumed because the other shelter had Randi neutered that
everyone was doing it earlier now.
S-O-R-R-Y! lol
The woman who has the two kits (shelter volunteer) is taking them tonite
for shots, de-worming and tests for the nasties (the testing at my
expense),
so technically I can bring them home as long as they test negative. They
are at her house in foster care now, not at a shelter.
I'll just see what my vet suggests..... Carol

Hi all - I am getting two more kittens (Cali & Randi are fine now so now

I'm
able to add to my family) from the same shelter I got Cali, but they are

in
foster care - about 3 months old - two boys. They are not neutered yet;
what is the general age they do this now? When I got Randi he was done
at

9
weeks before I got him. I'm getting them the end of the week. One is a
longhair gray and the other is black & white.
They're so cute - both males. Carol


Cats can be neutered safely anytime after 6 weeks but I prefer 8-12
weeks.
If I were you, I'd make an appointment to have them neutered on the same
day
you pick them up and bring them straight to the vet as soon as you get
them.

Congratulations and best of luck!

Phil
