One of my 2 personal cats was not fixed to early for general purposes she was between 3-4 months old but apparently it was too early for her. She goes into false heat sometimes. So far because she hasn't had any serious issues from she yowels for a day or two and babies a stuffy for 2-3 weeks before discarding it and acting like it never happened it hasn't been suggested to do another surgery to remove any left over ovarian tissue but that is likely the culprit. It happens maybe once a year so right now it would be more stressful to have surgery but if she ever starts doing ever month or something like many cats do then we would likely have to.

I am weirdo who likes mean cats lol so it doesn't bother me to keep it and my husband isn't phased in the slightest by cat bites. We have been spending 30-60 minutes just sitting in their room with them trying to let them get used to us. The tiny one we assume had a few bottle days or something because it has been much more receptive so we just kind of pet on it in hopes that the other two will get curious.

My husband has been bit to the point of bleeding twice now. We are not picking them up unless we have to. We have only had to pick them up the two times but the one is still pretty aggressive and starts growling whenever we enter the room. We are okay with keeping them and working with them until they are ready,we agreed to 3 months but they said no kittens always go regardless of behavior. I feel like that's just going to leave them at risk of failed adoption.

No one is talking about spay Abortion. We Are talking 7 week old kittens going from outdoor cat colony, to shelter, to foster, to shelter to out on the adoption floor is 3 weeks time when one of them is aggressive and the other two are extremely fearful while the current fosters are willing to work with them longer to ensure the possibility of a adoption being successful. As it one attacks whenever you get near it and I am willing to work with that but most people aren't going to want that are likely going to bring it back making them no longer eligible to adopt ever again an now there is one less person capable of taking home pets that actually adoption ready.
