Question
At what age is it best to purchase a male persian breeder. 12 weeks and have it grow up in the home or can a 8 month old be purchased and integrate well without spraying????

Answer
HI Kathy

It really depends on how many other cats you have.  If you have others then it will be easier to integrate a 12 week old kitten rather than an older kitten.  At either age it is impossible to tell whether he will spray when he grows up.
