They have to be at least 8 weeks old to be spayed or neutered. It doesn't have to be done so early, but it should be done sooner rather than later, as studies have shown that cats that are spayed/neutered later are at greater risk for certain serious conditions and diseases, such as Breast cancer.
Also keep in mind that female cats can get pregnant as young as 4 months old, so if there is any chance of her meeting an un-neutered male, she should be spayed early.
What else can I help you with?
If a cat gets spayed will it stop feeding its kittens?
No, spaying a cat will not stop her from feeding her kittens. After a spay surgery, a cat may still lactate for a short period, but she will naturally stop producing milk once she is no longer nursing her kittens.
What is the youngest age you can spay or neuter your pet?
Both male and female kittens can be spayed as early as 10-12 weeks of age, although this varies somewhat from vet to vet. Cats usually reach sexual maturity around six months old and some even younger at four months, so it is best to spay kittens before that age. Make sure you get kittens neutered and spayed (with six or so weeks indoors for recovery and in the case of male cats, for hormones to fully calm down) before ever letting them outside. Even cats under a year old can get pregnant, and that could kill a young cat. Plus then you've got more kittens on your hands, and it's not good to take a litter of kittens to a shelter.
