I got Max neutered today. He's 5 months old. I have had money problems and wasn't able to get the speuters done on my kittens as soon as I wanted to. I haven't gotten the females done yet. The after surgery instructions the vet gave me said that cats can still be fertile for 90 days after neutering! I knew that they weren't infertile right away, but I thought it was about two weeks, but 90 days!! I was going to get the girls fixed one at a time over the next 3 months to be able to afford it. But if he can still get them pregnant for 90 days, maybe I need to get them all done at once. I was also hoping not to have to deal with 3 post surgery kittens, since there's lots of monitoring and watching the incision site. What a bummer!
Max is feeling really tired and sleepy, but he's beginning to perk up. He was so lethargic when I first brought him home, that he could just take a couple of steps before he had to lie down and sleep. He's still snoozing quite a bit.
I also forgot to mention that two of the girls have to go in for their final booster shots on the 18th, so I want to wait until they are finished with the shots before I get them in for their surgeries.
