My Heidi is the smallest girl I've had spayed. I waited until she was a year old and she was just at 3 pounds then. She came through fine.
I would think that you could have her done on any given Friday and she would be fine by Monday (assuming you work a Mon. - Fri. job). I personally wanted to wait with Heidi for her to put on as much weight as possible and also to give her time to expel her baby teeth.
I think your Jillie will be fine to wait a bit. While she may go into her first heat, it's not unusual for some girls to go up to a year before their first one.
Whatever you decide, just make sure your vet is using a safe anesthesia. |
