I suggest also getting her spayed before you bring a male home, also gives her re-coop time, with a new play mate she'll be wanting to romp and play. Unless you can keep them safely separated. | It is still recommended to spay before there first heat. A lot of people think they can keep them separated but can't and even breeders sometimes have a hard time.
