As long as they're over 3 lbs. My newest one, I will have to wait on spaying, which I hate, as I like to have them spayed between 5-6 mos. but, she's 5 1/2 mos and only 2 pounds, so, I will wait until she's either 3 lbs. which she may not get too, or a little over a year. Yours is okay weight wise. It is better to have them spayed before first heat, and I doubt she's been in heat, or you would have noticed...
