The best age to geld cats is between 6 months old and a year, depending if it has reached its total growth. If after the castration they tend to gain some weight, since it has diminished some physical activity, this can be solved with an appropriate diet. With the vasectomy they do not segregate semen, but its desire and behavior are not modified. It is not advisable. Sterilization in female cats
Sterilization recommended in female cats goes between 6 months and before her first zeal. The ideal thing is to do it after her first zeal, when they are well developed. Meanwhile, contraceptive methods can be given in a temporary way.
