I am getting a Maine Coon soon and was wondering if it would be more appropriate to pick him up and bring him home first, then get him neutered; or, schedule his appointment, pick him up and take him to the vet, then take him home afterward. He is 6 months old.

This is probably the single most important toy I ever bought. I got it when my boy was a kitten and two years later, he still plays with it every day.

Well, I talked to the breeder about it. She said that his line has never previously sprayed, even the studs are not known to be notorious sprayers. They suggested to get him neutered between 7-9 months for the hormones, he is a maine coon which grow for 3-5 years.
