Hi, my vet wants to neuter my kitten at 4 months – isn't that a bit too early?

    Hello,

    It seems a bit strange that the vet is suggesting having him neutered as early as 4 months. Usually, it’s more around the 6-month mark. You need to make sure that his testicles have properly descended. It might be worth asking another vet for a second opinion.

    I hope my answer has been helpful.

    Kind regards,

    Léo Mettas.

    I’d say yes, but it depends on why he wants to have him neutered so early?
