Responsible breeders usually wait until their cats are over 1 year of age (sometimes they wait until 2 years old) before letting her have her first litter. This insures the cat is fully mentally and physically mature and is an excellent standard of the breed.
However, due to the current overpopulation of cats, it is ideal to spay your cat. There are too many cats and kittens in shelters needing homes, and guaranteeing more kittens to forever homes is difficult. Even responsible and experienced breeders are willing to keep any kittens if they are not sold, some are stopping their breeding programs and advising potential kitten owners to adopt from shelters.

How can you tell a cats age?
This is a good way to tell your cats age,Yes, teeth are a good indicator of age, especially for kittens. Their "baby teeth" first emerge between two to four weeks. Their permanent teeth are developing above them, and by three to four months, will start to displace the baby teeth (also called "deciduous teeth.") Teeth are a good indicator of a cat or kitten's approximate age, but they are not foolproof. When I took our Billi, pictured here at homecoming, I provided him with date of birth, as he had been born in a cat foster home. Although Billi was then five months old, the vet estimated his biological age to be closer to two months, based on his low body weight (2.5 pounds) and the development of his teeth.
