My persian kitten came in heat first when she was 5 month old, now shes six, is this proper time for mating?

When you say six... I presume you meant six months, right? You might want to give her a chance to fully develop into an adult before you breed her. If she's only six months old, her body hasn't had time to mature yet. She's still very much a baby even though she's gone into heat a time or two.

I know that the human species isn't the same but you wouldn't necessarily breed a young girl just because she's started to cycle, would you? You'd want her to be more mature if you intended for her to be pregnant in the future, wouldn't you? What I'm trying to say, there are less risks involved for either the babies or their mother if the mom has had a little time to grow up physically... and mentally. Let her body fully develop, first.

I hope that you have some homes in mind for these future kitties and that you've done a little research before you make this "huge" decision... like check with your vet to see what your responsibilities for making sure she has a healthy pregnancy are and potentially how much it might cost including the expenses should your kitty need an emergency cecerian if there were to be a complication... and of course there will be her new diet requirements... and if they are pure breds and they need to be registered... well, that's not a free service and generally the owner of the mother is responsible for getting them registered before they are adopted out. Yes, before... they are adopted out. And then of course the kittens won't breastfeed forever... they'll have to have money spent on them for food, also.

If you're wanting to breed her just to shut her up when she's in heat, get her spayed instead. It can actually add more years to her lifespan not to mention the sanity it saves you... and the expense for spaying is way less than the cost of breeding... I promise you that. Ask any vet.

I hope that makes sense to you. Good luck.

Not that the world needs any more cats - I read recently that there are about 10 million cats destroyed each year - and quite a few of those are due just to overpopulation. If someone wants a persian kitten - they just need to check their local shelter, rescue group or online sites like petfinder - they don't need kittens from you.

If you still want to breed kittens, please do so responsibly. Read up as much as you can about how to breed a cat correctly - how to take care of your cat and its litter. Don't just ask a bunch of strangers.

By the way - the little stray I recently adopted is getting spayed today! Hope she's doing okay without me.

Okay six years old is way too old for a persian to mate. Also, most persians have to have a C-section whenever the time comes for her to give birth. Just have her spay and she will stop yowling for a mate.

No, No No, definantly not, wait until she is at least 12 months old. persians are large cats and have a lot of problems giving birth, make sure you've got the vet on speed dial, especially for the first litter.

No it's WAY TOO EARLY. You need to wait till she is about 2 years old. You could maybe breed her a little earlier than that. But no less than 1 1/2 years old.

She is too young right now. You would be risking the lives of both her and the kittens. You may even want to reconsider breeding her at all, there are so many "homeless" cats, that includes purebreds too...

If you were a breeder, you would know that answer to this. Since you are not, then dont breed her. It is dangerous for a cat to give birth before the age of one year old.

She needs to be at least 12 months. Its best for her health and for the health of the kittens.

She’s still a kitten herself! Not only will there be physical danger to both her and her kittens, but she is not mentally ready to take care of them.

if she is only six months this is two young, responsible breeders like to wait until they are full grown , around 2 yrs.old,
