A brother and sister from the same litter can create their own litters by the age of five months. It is not a good idea to allow this to happen. Mother cats or dogs can become pregnant while nursing. It is important to keep a nursing mother away from other adult cats/dogs of the opposite sex. One can spay a mother as soon as the kittens or pups are weaned, (5 to 6 weeks for kittens and 4 to 5 weeks for puppies) and because of the risk of pregnancy this should be done.
Wait at least 8 to 12 weeks after the delivery to get her spayed, or 10 days after the kittens have stopped nursing. She will need to continue producing milk for the kittens until they are fully weaned and have switched to solid foods.
