Teresa, would you mind pointing folks in the direction of some of this reading material? I'm currently in the middle of a debate with someone regarding the age of alteration. I too believe that it's better to wait (and my vet agrees also); the other person is old school and thinks it should be done by 6 months. I want something more fact based than opinion to show her.
