Regarding the issue of cat sterilization, Pet Sky talks about its own views, which may be different from the views of some pet doctors. Netizens can just identify and choose by themselves.

First, let’s briefly answer: Why do cats need to be sterilized? !

Many people choose to sterilize cats, for three main reasons: 1. When cats are in heat, it is really noisy! I often shouted around in the middle of the night, which made the owner unable to sleep. 2. Avoid cats having kittens in the future. 3. For the sake of cats' health, I hope cats will stay away from diseases.

No matter what the reason, if you plan to sterilize your cat, you must prepare in advance.

Before sterilizing a kitten, you must distinguish between male and female cats, because the gender of the cat is different, the difficulty of undergoing surgery is also different. Generally speaking, cats can undergo sterilization surgery within about 4-6 months.

If it is a little male cat, it is very simple, just "cutting eggs". The operation is easier to do and the charge is not high.

If it is a kitten, the operation will be relatively complicated and the charges will be more expensive.

When the female cat is about half a year old, before they are in heat, they can go to the hospital to contact the doctor and prepare for the operation, and the doctor will tell you the whole process.

However, at this time, the operation is relatively difficult for kittens, and the ovaries in their bodies are relatively small, which is not particularly easy to find, but can also be found.

Pet Sky does not recommend that kittens undergo surgery, which is relatively high. In addition, what if you want your cat to give birth to a kitten in the future?

When in the hospital, there was a foreign girl who had a sterilization operation with a kitten. Later, the kitten died. The foreign girl was very sad. Although it was not the surgery I had, it has always become a psychological shadow for me.
