If your cat is not pregnant, I strongly urge you to have her spayed. Not only are there thousands of pets in shelters, being euthanized every day, because there are not enough homes to go around, but it is healthier for your pet.

There are diseases such as pyometra - an infection of the uterus which is most often fatal. Then too, the risks of mammary cancer are higher in unspayed cats. Read more at: http://www.imom.org/spay-neuter/
Yea, my cat had pyometria. I'm just glad she lived through it all.
