Hello,
We have an exceptionally beautiful Ragdoll kitten, Shasta is his name. I have an appt. to have him neutered on Sept. 2nd. Normally, this is not an issue. We've had serval cats "fixed" without thinking twice about the proceedure. However, when our last Ragdoll became sick, and we knew he would not recover we wished we had one of his kittens. Now, with his replacement in our house...we want insurance. Not only that, but we will be able to place the kittens if we acquire a female and breed Shasta with her.
What is an unneutered tom cat like? Shasta is a house cat and only goes outside under supervision. Also...should we wait to have him neutered at 8 months like a book says...or 4 months like
our vet says...if we do go that route.
