First off i have NO INTEREST in breeding my cat, ever, and i am very confident that i can keep that from happening.. She is an indoor cat,and only has access to the outdoors when leashed... I am very much a dog person, and upon researching with dogs, it seems spaying and neutering especially large breeds can have negative outcomes that i am not willing to risk especially when done before the animal is fully mature.. So i have made the choice that my next dog who i am planning on getting soon will remain intact along with any other future dogs..
I am wondering if, for cats, there are any long term health effects cause by spaying and neutering/early spay and neuter.. At what time is a cat considered fully mature? Perhaps i will wait until than to fix her...
If you are unaware, here are some links about the long term health effects of early spay and neuter in dogs
