Well, I tried. I called our vet to make Hermie's spay appointment and they said their vets don't fix kittens until 5-6 months.
So, Hermie gets to wait anyway...

(Just in case you have no idea what I'm talking about ;) )
I am not surprised. In our area there is only 1 vet that I know of that will do the operation on VERY young cats. The rest all want them to be 5 - 6 months. (Whether this is right or wrong thinking, it is our only option)
How old is Hermie again? Four plus, right? So they won't schedule an appointment for another month?
:o :rolleyes: :confused:
More details please, I'm very confused.
Hermie just turned 16 weeks on Tuesday. (about four months) So, they said to call back when she's closer to 5-6 months. I'll be calling the day she turns 5 months. ;)
I think it's better to wait until a cat is about 5-6 months old. I still can't believe that someone neutered my RB Pepper when he was only 8 weeks old. I adopted him at 9 weeks old. I think that this is way too young.
Awwww, Hermie, little girl! :) I'm sure she'll be fine to wait. Isn't it amazing that a spay only takes 10-15 minutes start to finish?? :eek:
**hugs**
Most vets in Australia wait until the kitten is at least 5 to 6 months old. They don't want litigation because of the anethetic killing a treasured pet. Even though mind you, it would be accidental.
