At what age should I neuter my kitten?

Pet kittens can be neutered from about four months of age.

See the Cat Group policy statement on timing of neutering

Should I let my cat have one litter?

There is absolutely no need for cats to have one litter.

It will not affect temperament and cats will not have a desire to reproduce unless they are allowed to come into season.

Neutering before puberty ensures cats do not become pregnant by accident and that more kittens are not born which may not have homes to go to.
