Someone recently said that cats shouldn't be neutered/spayed until they
are 9-10 months old, and claimed that this is when they are mature...
Most of the cats I have known from kittenhood on didn't reach their
full physical growth until they were about 2 years old; while younger
than that, they remain sort of skinny and gangly and clumsy (like a
teenager, ya' know!)
