My advice would be to completely seperate them as you do not want any accidents and she is way too young to have a litter safely. I would suggest having your male fixed immediately and after your female is finished with her heat you can set her up for her spay. In the meantime, I would strongly suggest either completely seperating them in different rooms or having one of them go to a relative's house. |
Thanks so much for your advice. I am calling my vet tomorrow to schedule an appointment.
