new cats (esp very new cats) need lots of care and attention, vaccinations, and, at around edit: a year six months old, need to be neutered. this can come with a lot of costs for the kitty-parents. used cats come with much of this taken care of already and are far more independent.
regarding “value”-- that may be a matter of opinion, considering how adorable kittens are.
hmm, I guess it’s been a while for me. I think that, for males, around a year might be when it’s hitting the red line for when it might be too late and they can start spraying/marking?

Yeah, and with both it can prevent some hormone related cancers down the road.
Is that what Bob Barker told you?
I don’t remember Bob going into that level of detail about it.
