I have a 5 month old kitten. I got her at 11 weeks from Cats Protection. Due to a nasty worm infection she was, and still is, small. Today she weighed in at 2 kg.
So here is the problem. We are teachers and were hoping she could have the op over the summer so we can be with her. The vet that CP want us to use is a car drive away but the vets that we want to use is in the next street. The CP vet want her to be 2.5kg which will take a while, it’s taken a month to get her from 1.5 to 2.
If we use our local vet we could drop her off in the morning before school in a Friday, have the op done and then be with her over the weekend. If we use the CP vet then it wouldn’t be until October half term that we could do it as we can’t get there during opening hours.
Getting her done at the CP vet would be free. At the local one it would be £140.
So what would you do? If I wait until late October will she go into heat?
