when to spay

mscm95 Oct 22, 2007 09:24 PM

Hi all,
I have spoken to a couple of breeders from different areas and some sell the kittens already spayed where others have you set it up. I kind of like the idea that they are already spayed in case something were to go wrong after their surgery and the breeder knows what to do versus something happening while they are with me. Please share your experiences pros/cons and when you had your pets spayed..

Thx

Sina was spayed at 7 months. I was a nervous wreck about it, but when I picked her up from the vet he said she was up and walking around very soon after the surgery. When I took her home she was still a bit doped up so I left her in the carrier when I went to work (I didn't want her to fall off the bed or something and get hurt). By the time I got back from work the drugs had worn off and she was back to her old self. Up and bouncing around, you would never know she had just gotten spayed! Her incision healed really fast and now I can't even see a scar. In short, it seemed a whole lot more scary than it actually was.
