PLEASE HELP!!!

I got a female sphynx in June 2024 her name is Shiloh, we thought she was 8 weeks old (yes i know way to young to be away from her mom and littermates) The breeder I dealt with was a piece of work and threatened to take my money and my kitten if I did not pick her up on said date instead of the date we planned for months when she would be hitting her 13 week mark. 2 weeks ago, we adopted a 1 1/2-year-old male sphynx who we were told was neutered at 3 1/2- 4 months old. This morning my husband and I woke up to the cats being linked/tied together. I didn't think a fixed male could tie with an unfixed female. My vet seems to think since the male was so young when he was fixed, they may have missed a teste and that's what is making him act like this.

We did plan to breed her when she was older/bigger. Our vet gave us the OK to breed her since she is between 8-10 months old, healthy, active and in heat, she's had x-ray of her body done to make sure there is no calcifications, no previous fractures etc. and they ran blood work and said she is perfect. I feel like our only choice is to breed earlier than we expected but find a stud then as soon as the litter is born and able to be away from mom, she should be at the weight she needs to be and get her fixed immediately.

On our paperwork Shiloh is described as follows Micro blue/seal point velvet sphynx, so her being micro and a runt could have a factor in her size as she grows?
Below I attached a picture of Shiloh and our supposed male cat who is "fixed" tied together.

Size of females can be a concern if they are smaller. They can have difficulties during pregnancy if the litter is big, and they can have problems giving birth if their birth canal is smaller etc. I know my breeder takes size into account of her queens besides the typical best standards reprecentitive of the breed.

@Shiloh24 , I know many have their hearts set on having "one " litter then spay.
sometimes we just have to step back look at the big picture and do what is best for our babies. For their health and the betterment of the breed.

My concern is with possible complications as @Catzzzmeow chimed in above.

I personally would not risk my baby having any chance of complications and even risk death with breeding a small queen .

Perhaps have Shiloh spayed. Then look for a queen with breeding rights from a responsible breeder instead of breeding Shiloh.
(see what to expect from a responsible breeder). we can PM responsible breeders.
also sharing rule no soliciting for queen or stud service.

It is very concerning to me that in your other post said of the breeder " but she has been dishonest about everything else". You said "was a piece of work"
.
red flag for me to even consider breeding baby Shiloh.

What to expect from a responsible sphynx breeder

We get this question quite a bit here on Sphynxlair so I figured we would compile some useful information, a check list if you will for a first time sphynx buyer or even an existing sphynx parent looking to get another sphynx cat or kitten. All of these items listed below aren't necessarily deal...

Ways to help detect fraud & scammers when adopting/buying a cat

NEVER send money via Western Union. If possible - get a cat or kitten that is in driving distance of your home. Most breeders selling kittens or people re-homing or adopting out will communicate no problem via phone, emails or in person. If not - look somewhere else. Visit the breeder’s home if...
