[Sweet Apple]

My Apple is also just over 6 months (by one week) and also weighs just over 4 lbs (4 lbs. 3 ounces), and I'm going through the same dilemma...This is a real hot topic, on this site, and predominately pro-spay...However, I haven't made a decision, either, although I don't plan to breed Apple, as that holds just as much risk, or more, as spaying...I'm not an expert, but I have been reading reading reading, and I'm still undecided...Sweet Violet posted a very controversial article ( http://www.angelsezine.com/ ) about this subject...I found it very informative...I think the best advice is for you to just look for as much information as you can, pros and cons, of spaying, then make a decision for your baby...I have not decided to spay, as of yet, but I have not ruled it out, in the future...When I get a peace about whatever decision I make, I'll act on that...For now, I'm not spaying...Hope this helps...
