British shorthair female cats can be neutered when they are 6 months old and weigh more than 6 pounds. If the cat is very small and does not weigh 6 pounds nearly 1 year old, it is best to consult a pet hospital. Basically, cats can be neutered as long as they are healthy. The younger the cat, the faster the recovery from sterilization. Neutering not only prevents the female cat from the risk of many diseases, but also avoids various negative sexual behaviors during heat.

Precautions for British Shorthair female cats after neutering:

1. Prepare a quiet and comfortable environment for the cat, and then prepare a space large enough for the cat to lie flat. The ideal cat nest is 1.5 times the body length.

2. Anesthetized cats may be sensitive to light. Use soft lights or turn off the lights in the cat’s resting area.

3. Do not feed or water the cat immediately after surgery. Wait 4 to 8 hours before feeding a small amount of water and food.

4. Prepare some tofu cat litter for cats and avoid using dusty bentonite sand.

5. Wear an Elizabethan band to prevent licking the wound, and observe the growth of the wound and whether there is any infection.

6. The cat needs to be fed painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs in the first three days. Be sure to follow the doctor's advice and do not use the medicine casually.
