Males will breed for a long time; girls usually indicate their breeding days are over by having smaller litters, etc. Females who are used as kitten mills (generally, 2 litters in a calendar year is regarded as the absolute limit and one a year is better for them) won't breed as long - usually.

It's kindest to spay your (registered, pedigree) female by about 5 yrs, and of course, best to neuter any non-pedigree as realy as your vet will do it - 3 mths or 1.5kg

3months?

isnt it too young? cos i heard it should be around 5or 6months

when u said smaller litters
does it means small in number or small in size?


i heard that female dogs only ovulate, produce eggs twice a year.
how often do female cats produce their eggs?

Not too young at all. And the only sure way to prevent unwanted pregnancies.

Small in size. One or two kittens

No is not too young......all that matters your vet is capable of doing early neutering and has experience with such matter.
