Why spay and neuter?
Spaying and neutering is one of the simplest and most effective ways to improve cats’ lives and reduce the number of unplanned kittens entering shelters or struggling to survive outdoors. Every year, millions of abandoned animals find themselves in shelters or roaming the streets, with only a fortunate few finding new homes; the rest face the unfortunate fate of euthanasia or succumb to trauma, exposure, starvation, or disease. By spaying or neutering your cat, you play a crucial role in preventing this tragic situation.
Healthier Cats
Spaying helps protect female cats from uterine infections and significantly reduces the risk of mammary tumors, especially when performed before the first heat cycle.
Neutering male cats eliminates the risk of testicular cancer and can reduce certain prostate problems.
Happier, Safer Lives
Spaying eliminates heat cycles and the behaviors that often accompany them, including loud vocalizing and increased urination.
Neutering can reduce roaming, territorial marking, and some forms of aggression, helping keep male cats safer from traffic accidents and fights with other animals.
Preventing even one unwanted litter can make a difference. Spaying and neutering costs far less than caring for a litter of kittens and helps create a future with fewer homeless cats and healthier communities.
