Because it is good for them!
Spaying your female (cat or dog) at an early age greatly reduces her risk of developing pyometra and certain types of cancers, including breast cancer.
Neutering your male protects him from testicular cancer, prostate disease (including cancer) and hernia.
It is good for you, too!
Sterilization eliminates the need to breed, producing a calming effect on the animal.
Many aggression issues can be resolved or prevented by spaying or neutering your pet.
Female cats in heat will yelp and howl for four or five days each estrus cycle.
Intact males tend to spray, (spraying urine around the house).
Female dogs in heat can attract males from great distances, right to your doorstep!
Likewise, intact males may roam in search of such females.
Spaying your female dog will eliminate the bloodstains on your furniture that may result from her cycle. Neutering your male will prevent embarrassing behavior, like him mounting Old Aunt Gracie’s leg on Thanksgiving.
Millions of unwanted cats and dogs of all ages are euthanized each year or live on the streets as a result of pet overpopulation.
Please help us stop pet overpopulation by spaying or neutering your pet. Spaying (technically called Ovariohysterectomy) is the surgical removal of the ovaries.
Neutering (technically called Castration) is the surgical removal of the testicles. Many vets require the cat to be at least 6 months old, but the surgery can be safely performed as early as 2 months of age. The younger the cat, the easier quicker they recover.
