I had Twinkle spayed at 6 months. I posted a similar question to yours beforehand and read everyone's opinions and experiences. In the end I was swayed by the 'elimination of cancers' argument......also Twinkle was 8lb by then, and I'd read that being larger lowered the risks of surgery-related problems. I think the arguments for and against both raise good points and in the end you have to do what you feel is best for your furbaby. Good luck with your decision xxx xxx
