9 weeks is too young to breed. Your mother in law's cat should be spayed and
your cat neutered in the near future. Gail "chichindk" u22908@uwe wrote in message news:619f22c7e8b42@uwe... I am watchinf my mother inlaws cat and she is in heat.. i have a 9 week old kitten.. beacuae he is so young he cant get her pregnant right?? please help i dont want babies!! |

I think you should get him neutered at 4 months if possible dependant on your vets recommendation (as I do not know his history or health status). Sometimes if you wait to long he can start spraying or exhibiting other unwanted behavior which is hard to stop after it has started. |

Your cats need to be almost full grown before spaying or neutering.
That said, even though the cat may not be completely grown, 7 months is optimal for females, 6 months for males. They can be altered before this, but if the male is of persian descent or has a lot of persian blood, the cat needs to be 18 months old before neutering. They have a condition where one of the testicles drops late, so even neutered for the one testicle, they can breed. Both can be spayed/neutered as early as 5 months. Just expect the cats to be fatter, less active and smaller-boned by being altered that early. Extra play can help with the weight issue. Morgen http://www.for-the-love-of-cats.com/behaviors |
