Choosing to Spay and Neuter Your Pet

Spaying is the surgical removal of a female pet's ovaries and uterus, while neutering refers to the removal of a male pet's testicles. Both procedures are performed under general anesthesia and are relatively quick, with minimal recovery time required. These surgeries not only eliminate the chance of surprise litters but also bring significant health and behavioral benefits to your pet.

Spaying and neutering provide numerous advantages for both pets and their owners. A spay helps prevent uterine infections and significantly reduces the risk of breast cancer in female pets, which can be fatal. Neutering male pets prevents testicular cancer and can reduce the risk of prostate problems. Pets that have been spayed or neutered often exhibit more desirable behaviors. Spaying reduces heat cycles in female pets, which can lead to less roaming and howling. Neutering male pets can decrease aggressive behavior, reduce marking territory, and lower the urge to roam. By spaying or neutering your cat or dog, you contribute to reducing the number of homeless animals and ease the burden on animal shelters. Millions of cats and dogs end up in shelters every year, and these procedures are a proactive way to address this issue.
