It is ideal to spay the kitten before five or six months of age, as female kittens can become sexually mature between the ages of six and nine months, although some mature as early as four months old.
Female kittens usually come into heat for the first time when she is around 6 months old, although some kittens can have her first heat as young as 4 months. The best age to get her spayed is between 4 and 6 months old.

Why to not spay cats?

If you spay your cat, you are making sure your cat doesn't have kittens. If you want kittens to sell or give away to people, or just keep at home, then don't spay your female cat. Birth is a very exciting thing, and you'll have mini-copies of your cat running around the house! :) If you want kittens, make sure not to spay your cat. But females can only get spayed. When boy kitties can't have kittens, they are neutered. It takes a male and a female cat to have kittens. But when there are kittens, make sure the male stays away, maybe in the other part of the house, or in a big dog excercise pen, or somewhere where he can't get to the kittens. Or he'll kill them to be with his mate, the female cat. Good luck with your kittens!


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 is possible for a female cat to mate then conceive then be spayed and then give birth to her kittens?

No, it is not possible for a spayed cat to have kittens. The spaying procedure removes the cat's entire reproductive system, which includes any unborn kittens if any are present. If the cat is far into her pregnancy, it may be safer (unless a vet says otherwise) to let the kittens be born and then spay the mother as soon as the kittens are weaned. A cat early in pregnancy can be spayed safely.

Is it better for a cat to have a litter of kittens before the mom is spayed?

This is a greatly debated topic. Most vets say it is best to spay early, before a cat even has her first heat cycle. On the flip side, a large number of cat owners feel that the cat will "settle" better after having a litter. I think it's really a matter of personal preference. If you are more comfortable with having that litter before spaying, and can handle the challenge of raising and finding homes for the kittens, then follow your heart.
