Best age to Spay a kitten?

[Superkitties]

I'm not getting into that discussion.

My two cents - My kittens were all S/N around 3 mths. Required for the shelter to release them. I insisted on speaking with the shelter vets before I allowed anything, and the discussions were very good.

Main concerns:

- The tinier the kitty, the tinier the parts, so the more experience is needed. The shelter vets/techs did so many a day that they were very knowledgeable.
- Perhaps the urethra didn't develop properly if snipped too early (narrow = greater chance of blockage), but apparently the studies are not bearing this out. Someone else may have more updated info?

If your vet wants to do it at 5-6 mths, that's fine - still the norm. I wouldn't want the vet doing something he's not used to doing - greater chance of something going wrong, or missing a part. Just keep your kitty indoors and away from any intact kitties until then.

About the double spay, that's just
