The Benefits of Spaying or Neutering Your Pet

We recommend that everyone considers spaying or neutering their pet.  While the procedure primarily prevents unwanted litters, it also offers several life-long health benefits to pets.  Here are just a few benefits that spaying or neutering can offer.

5 Reasons to Spay or Neuter Your Pet:

  • Life Expectancy – Spaying your female pet before her first heat helps prevent uterine infections and breast cancer.  Neutering also prevents testicular cancer in males if done before they reach six months old.
  • Heat – Female cats will go into heat 4-5 days every three weeks during breeding season.  Spaying your cat will avoid many of the side effects associated with cats in heat, including yowling and urinating all over the house.
  • Safety – Neutering will keep your pet from roaming to find a mate and risking injury.
  • Behavior – Unneutered dogs and cats may mark their territory by spraying strong-smelling urine around the house.  This aggression can be avoided by early neutering.
  • Strays – Stay animals are a serious problem in many parts of the country.  Spaying and neutering your pet can help reduce the number of animals on the streets.
