As a vet told me: Males: When they're visable.

Females: 4-6 months.
Dogs: before puberty, at approximately 6 months of age

Cats: before its first heat at 5 to 6 months of age

Both animals can also have the procedure done anytime after this.

Cats can typically be spayed or neutered as early as 8 weeks old, while dogs can be spayed or neutered around 6 months of age. It is best to consult with a veterinarian to determine the optimal timing for each individual pet based on their breed and health status.
