Sissy was 3 lbs 7 oz and 7 months old when she was spayed. She did just fine. I think it is important to have a really good, positive feel for your vet. Make sure they do pre-op blood work to check everything out and know what type of anesthesia will be used. Ask whether your baby will stay overnight (and if so is there someone there 24 hrs) or come home later that day. Pain medication for the first few days is also a good idea. Find out how the incision will be closed. If there are any extra baby teeth, have them pulled while already under anesthesia. Also microchip and/or tatoo at this time if not already done.

Know that you will worry before, during and after and it is much less stressful for our babies than it is for us!!

That's everything I can think of right now.
