At approx 6 months of age you take your kitten to the vet. Spaying is done to females so they will put the kitten to sleep so she can't feel anything and make an incision about 2-3 inches in length on the stomach, from there the vet goes in and removes the ovaries so the cat can not reproduce. The vet will then stitch up the incision and it's done

When should a mother cat be spayed and will she leave the kittens?

It is recommended to spay a mother cat when the kittens are weaned, but be sure to check when your vet is most comfortable to spay her. The spay will not cause her to behave any differently to her kittens, but is advised to wait until the kittens are on solid food as the procedure can disrupt, or even stop, milk flow.


Is it safe to alter a kitten in their first heat?

My Cat had kittens after it was fixed what happened?

Are you sure she was spayed? A fixed cat cannot have kittens as the procedure removes all the reproductive organs; the uterus and the ovaries. There is a chance that the vet did not do the procedure correctly or at all, but there really is no way to tell; the only person who can really answer this question is your vet, or the vet that spayed your cat. Vets will not spay a cat that is already well in her pregnancy, as the risk is far too great for the Queen. A vet will only spay a cat very early on as the risk of the Queen bleeding out or some other complication is minimal.
