Spay and Neuter

Spaying and Neutering your Pets

With the overpopulation of homeless dogs and cats, it is now more important than ever to spay or neuter your pets. Below are some benefits of spaying or neutering your animal. 

Prevents pregnancy and the complications arising from pregnancy and delivery

Eliminates the heat cycle  

Prevents unwelcome males from trying to seek out your female pet in heat

Reduces the urge to roam. This makes it less likely that you will lose your pet, which in turn makes your pet less likely to contract a disease, get in a fight, get injured, or become a victim to cruelty, poison, or traffic.

Eliminates sexual discomfort, distress, or distraction

Reduces or eliminates the possibility of disease in the reproductive system and/or mammary glands.

Eliminates testicular tumors and reduces prostate gland problems.

In cats, neutering stops or reduces marking behavior (territorial spraying of urine).
