I just mention that because Oscar was 2 1/2 when my then-boss started taming him. He was an outdoor cat...it took a few months, but now Oscar is an indoor kitty with me and the BIGGEST suck and mommy's boy ever! (not that I'm complaining! )

I guess it depends on how truly wild she is...I was thinking of her apparent youth, and hoping that would give her a better chance.

Whichever way it works - spayed is better for her.
