I suppose the vets say 12 weeks to cover themselves. When I rang up about geting pepper netured they said nbot till he was 6 months old but when the vet saw him at his vhd injection when he was 12 weeks old she was happy to netuer him so I got him done that week. He was 2.9kgs and would have cost me moreonce he got to 3kg lol.
