I don't think she'll hit 3 lbs. The breeder said in her lines they slow down almost to a stop at around 5 months. The vet said he thinks she'll stop growing at around 6 months. She is right now 2 lbs. 5 ounces. Very short body with tiny little legs and itty bitty face. Looks like a Guinea Pig. And, Breeze, no we did not have a spay contract. Her papers are limited. We just believe in having them spay or neutered. IDK what to do. Do you think we should wait? Vet said she'll be fine. That they will do her first and have her up and eating by noon and then right home. He said main concern with little ones this size is keeping them warm and getting them to eat. He said it's like doing a kitten. Anyway, what is all your input on this. Hubby is a nervous wreck, probably more so then me. She'll be 6.5 months end of January. IOh and breeder said she won't hit heat until around a year old but vet said it's really a gamble.
