Just trying to reassure Joy-1 and that she needn't worry as I personally haven't had any problem,

So...Joy-1, convert that worry into excitement and remember that soon you aren't going to have a minute to yourself once that bundle of mayhem moves in and takes over your life \0/ (wow that sentence ran on a bit, lol)

My little one was done at five months, the vet recommended that I could do it from four months but I wanted to wait a bit and when I noticed his aggression levels increasing I decided to take him in.

Honestly you would have never known he had been castrated. The vet told me that he would be groggy and probably sleep most of the time and would get his appetite back in a day but Roark ran into the garden as soon as we got home to play, came in and ate some food and only went to sleep at bed time.

I must admit that his aggression levels have decreased although his favourite things to chew on are still my fingers!

I got Tia done at 6months,when I got her home she was running & playing all night,I was nervous all afternoon,it surprised me how she took the ordeal in her stride,they are tough loveable cats
