Hi there and thanks for posting on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Three years old is not too old to get neutered. Your veterinarian will likely want to see Charlie for an exam at least a few days before the surgery takes place and may need to have his blood draw at that time to make sure he is healthy enough for surgery. I hope this helps and best wishes to you and Charlie!
